Justice @ Metro (Chicago)

Justice's new film is being screened near midnight this Friday at the Metro . . . for FREE!  I am still undecided about whether to attend the New Year's Eve show they are throwing at the Congress--John's yearly ballroom shindig usually wins over any possible options--but this may change my mind.  Apparently the new DVD/CD set has new material and not just DJ sets of their first album.  Rumors has it that they proposed a whole new album to the record label, but due to serious deviation, it was rejected.  Now wether the new included material is this, or a re-tooling, one can only speculate.  Aja and I, along with fellow Justice-follower Mo, will be in attendance without a doubt.  

Start Time:  Friday, November 14, 2008 at 11:00pm
Location:  The Metro
Street:  3730 N Clark St
City/Town:  Chicago, IL

For me, nearly more exciting than the film are the precursor DJ sets, particularly that of DJ Bald Eagle; a lot of buzz in the underground scene and floated to the top about him.  I stopped by the second half of his set at Lollapalooza this past summer, which was amazing, even in the hot dead buzz of an August afternoon in Chicago.  The effect might have been slightly skewed, under idyllic willows and bristling sunshine, but the set was tremendous and a huge crowd and filtered in and pushed to the front by the time he put on his trademark eagle mask.  I am excited to see him in his natural element.  More info and RSVP via the facebooks.
