Here are all the COMPACTOR dates and cities for the INSTITUTIONALIZED G3N0C1DE* tour set. Pieces presented at all these were: MARTIAL LAW, HUMAN CAPITAL, REAL-TIME HORRORS, and NONE OF US ARE FREE UNTIL ALL OF US ARE FREE. The first 19 audiences also saw SILENCING DISSENT, while the rest saw THE LESSER OF TWO EVILS IS STILL EVIL. A few shows had technical issues or time constraints, so some of these were cut short or skipped.
If you missed all of these, I hope to have multi-camera video of the SLABFEST 2025 set edited and posted in the next several months (which is the first four songs only). There is a slim possibility of reviving this in some form for a Midwest tour next June, but that depends on interest, funds, and energy.
In addition to these, there were 9 shows in 2024 that were just a 20-minute version of the title track, and 2 shows last October (Manchester NH and Burlington VT) that were just THE LESSER OF TWO EVILS IS STILL EVIL and DONATE TO THE DEATH MACHINE. The
@annihilvs.power.electronix 28th Anniversary set in Nyack NY was only PAINFUL ADJUSTMENTS, and the Bent//Broken Fest a few weeks ago in Greensburg PA was only DISINFORMATION WAR.
This means the INSTITUTIONALIZED G3N0C1DE* material has been the focus for almost 2 years. That tracks, since that's about as long as the Gxn0c1de* in G4z4 has been happening. Sadly, since the album's inception, the problems it addresses have only become more acute. We are essentially living in the dystopian nightmare predicted by numerous writers of cautionary tales whose words went unheeded.
The
@compactornoise IG will post shirts left over from tour sometime this week.
