I know many people will be coming in for the fucking amazing “Sick New World” festival so if you’re bored the night before come on by and hang out with us! Come early and check out @kamikehoe! Excited for her to open this thing and so excited to see you all! Until then stay safe, happy, healthy and METAL AF! -M.C”
