It's pretty swank that they'll be hitting Deadtech when they come to Chicago, even though it's an utter pain to get to if you don't live in the area. I've seen some great acts there, like the fantastic 8-bit Construction Set, who accompanied some Cory Arcangel pieces at a Beige Records event. Of course, this show won't be as alcohol-infused as the last time Bit Shifter and nullsleep rolled into town, since Deadtech is stictly BYOB, but it should be a good time nonetheless.
