Robot Masquerade, October 3

On Saturday, October 3, the Robot Masquerade was held at  Brooklyn Fireproof (119 Ingraham Street). Run by the Addtract Consortium, a production company, it hosted four bands in addition to jam sessions between sets. It was in a huge space on a desolate Bushwick block.  Giant abstract paintings hung on the walls.  There were about 10-15 people there when I arrived (early), but quickly filled up to about 150-200.  Several were dressed as robots, wearing silver boxes over their heads and robotic outfits.
