Wake Magazine’s 7th Birthday At The Acadia, Friday the 24th

October 22nd, 2008
By Jack Spencer

Be sure to come out to the Acadia Cafe this Friday to celebrate The Wake’s 7th year! The corner pub will be host to a variety of great local acts from 5 PM to bar close, and it’s free! That should leave you with plenty of money to buy some beer from the Acadia’s impressive selection!

U of M student group Voices Merging kick off the event at 5, and the well-rounded night continues with music from morbid pop band Zombie Season, a solo set from Picked-To-Click artist Lucy Michelle, poetry from Words, spitfire rap music from MC Harv, and electro-tinged indie rock from Military Special! The show promises to be truly excellent, so come out and support The Wake by getting tipsy and seeing some great live music!

The Wake’s 7th Birthday Party
featuring Military Special, MC Harv, Words, Lucy Michelle (solo set), Zombie Season and Voices Merging
329 Cedar Ave S (Corner of Cedar and Riverside)
5 PM – 2 AM, All Ages, FREE
