STATIC SHOCK WEEKEND 2017







2017. The world is pretty fucked and a lot of our lives tend to be one disappointment after another. What can you do about that? Nothing. We're all powerless. Everyone goes back on their word, and no-one can be trusted. To contribute to this, after kicking up a fuss about needing to take a year off, we're back in 2017 with another contribution to the overflowing calendar of fests. Sorry about that!

This year, the weekender will be mainly held in a new home, the ExFed /New River Studios warehouse complex in Manor House, and we're very excited to be there. Just like previous years, we're bringing over a selection of some of our favourite bands, this time from the UK, Spain, Italy, Ireland, Brazil and the USA, with hopefully one or two surprises along the way. As always you are encouraged to come see what you would like to see, and skip what you don't. Each line up has a mixed bill to keep things interesting.

Below is the final schedule with the full line up for each main show. There will also be afterparties each evening which will be announced shortly. You can now buy a weekend pass which will get you into all the shows listed below at discounted rate from this link:

To possibly save yourself a few moments:

YES:
- Individual show tickets will be made available next week.
- All official shows are all ages.
- There will be aftershows, dance parties will be announced in the coming weeks.
- We will be in need of volunteers, places for bands to sleep etc, and would love any help on that front. We'll put out the call in good time.
- We're excited to see all of you!

NO:
- The line up is full, and we also have a back up list in case anyone has to drop out. As much as you would like your goregrind band to jump on the bill, it's just not going to happen. Sorry.
- Gauze are still not on the bill. Just like every other festival.
