Broken Social Scene play ACL after-party at the Seaholm Power Plant
Norman Wong
Echoey spaces and the multilayered sounds of Broken Social Scene might not be a match made in heaven, but that's not stopping the Canadian musical collective's upcoming gig at the Seaholm Power Plant from running away with the title of "coolest unofficial ACL Festival after-show." The Art Deco-style plant—built in the 1930s, decommissioned in the 1990s—will play host to the after-hours revelry Oct. 2 and Oct. 3, thanks to the collective powers (wocka wocka) of WOXY and Rare Magazine. No word yet on who will join Broken Social Scene on the bill, but considering that these shows are supposed to go from 10 p.m. to 4 a.m., there's still plenty to be announced. The show is free with RSVP; click here to do so.
