INFO + TICKETS

An all-day, all-night showcase for Hospital Records, a New York label focusing on noise, electronics, and metal -- but broadly enough to encompass list fave Kelly Moran, whose works for prepared piano are some of the most engaging classical compositions of the last few years (but who also plays in Oneohtrix Point Never's back-up band).  (There are separate shows starting at noon and 11 PM -- but the only remaining tickets get you into both.)

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:  There will be food in the hall.  If the hall's dedicated cocktail bar behind the music room (separate from the ones in the music room) is actually making cocktails (often it doesn't during big shows), drink there:  its drinks are materially better than those at the other on-site bars.  During the break between shows, maybe scoot over to ECB for better burgers than you could possibly be expecting.
