Kill the lights. Silence the crowd. Crank the amp up that extra notch. Prepare yourself for the return of the real rock show.

On November 11th, the Independent Musicians Club, is slated to host its first of many concerts throughout the year. The headlining band, Dr. Hourai is a heavily metal influenced melodic punk rock band on tour from New York. They are touring in support of their new record "Vibrations In Hyperspace."

Sharing the stage are three local bands. Amber, an emotionally driven hardcore band, Homes, a synth rock explosion, and the Privates who playfully describe their sound as 'rock nonsense', are all veterans in the local music scene.

With a wide spectrum of musical varieties and a blend of old and new faces, the IMC hopes the opening concert will grab the attention of a new and diverse crowd of music lovers.
Admission to the show, which is being held at the Gathering Spot, is $5. It begins at 9 p.m. on Friday November 11.
