On Saturday afternoon of the fest, Eastside Tavern hosts a Rock n Roll Hall of Fame gathering, bringing together the legendary
@axissova , a 10-year reunion (and long-awaited record release) by supergroup Flïïght and local faves
@thebandlaika for plenty of riffs, feedback, distortion and fuzz.
This rocknroll history lecture would not be complete without Mid Missouri’s own historian,
@ttwnofficial (Boone!), who has been covering the underground for 33 years. Come peruse The Trouble With Normal FanZines as we push the headroom to the max.
This showcase is truly for the heads.

🤘About the bands:
Forging a sound from the raw materials of basement psychedelia, 1980’s punk and acid-damaged stadium rock, Chicago’s
@axissova has been pushing the dials into the red for nearly 15 years.
The band features a rhythm section of former Columbia legend Jeremy Freeze (Cave, Jerusalem & the Starbaskets) and Josh Johannpeter (mahjongg), led by longstanding pillar of the Midwest underground Brett Sova.
Flïïght reunites after nearly a soundless decade. If you’ve seen Flïïght live, you’re likely one of the only people who’s actually heard the band. Now, Columbia’s most truly underground supergroup featuring Josh Cochran, Devin Frank, Taylor Bacon, Steph Foley, Madeline Carl, Travis Boots, Ted Sharp, Pete Hansen and Max Garcia-Rubio returns to the stage hot off the heels of finally etching waves into wax.
@thebandlaika is homegrown indie rock at its best. The band’s patented brand of Missouri “bootgaze” features textured sounds and melodies for a sonic experience to launch you into space.
Thank you to
@1023bxr and longtime T/F showcase host Eastside Tavern for making this showcase happen and to our Music Program sponsors
