They’re baaaaaaack! Japanese psych-noise-crazy-genius-types Boredoms will once again bring the clattering of oh-so-many drums to the States this summer, in a bi-coastal sequel to last year’s wildly successful 77BoaDrum event. This time out, they’re calling it 88BoaDrum, and performances of the brand new 88-minute composition from Boredoms leader Eye will take place August 8 (8/8/08, you see) in both Los Angeles and Brooklyn, New York.
The Los Angeles event will take place beginning at 8:08 PM PST at the city’s famed La Brea Tar Pits, and will feature 88 drummers selected by both the Boredoms and 88Boadrum artistic director Hisham Bharoocha of Soft Circle. The New York event, conducted on behalf of the Boredoms by Brooklyn’s own Gang Gang Dance, goes down at 8:08 PM EST at the Williamsburg waterfront.
Both BoaDrums will be free and open to the public, but tickets will be required for entry. They’ll be available starting Friday, July 18 at brownpapertickets.com, at L.A.’s Amoeba Records and the L.A. County Museum of Art, or at New York’s Other Music and Sound Fix Records. Only one ticket will be available per person.
88BoaDrum is presented by Nike Sportswear, who will bring you the commemorative “88Boadrum NSW Tee collection”. Attendees will be able to purchase t-shirts, featuring designs by Eye, that will be hand-screened at the events. UPDATE: The t-shirts are free!
Bringing together the worlds of extreme avant garde music and gigantic athletics corporations? Guess it’s a good way to “drum up” sales. (Ba dum dum!)

I had a lot of fun. Thoughtful, emotional; no matter the reason you came you could pick up on something that they put together. That's more from a personal standpoint. I'm still trying to comprehend it all. Sound is a cool thing to think about.
