NightLife: Noise Pop

Get ready to make some NOISE at the official NightLife Noise Pop Music Fest pre-party! With a headlining DJ set by Neon Indian, there’s no better way to celebrate Noise Pop’s 30th anniversary than with live music, live art, and of course, live science.

Featured events:

• A little electronic, a little synth-pop, a little dreamy: Neon Indian brings the sweet jams and the good vibes with the ultimate opening set.
   
• Make your DJ dreams come true and learn how to spin with Fingersnaps Media Arts, a creative and educational DJ studio located in the heart of the Mission.
   
• Bring some of the music magic home with one-of-a-kind art inspired by concert posters displayed at a mini pop-up art gallery with Lil Tuffy.
   
• San FranPsycho is on deck, live screen printing a special NightLife-only NoisePop design. Buy a freshly screen-printed shirt on-site or BYOT (bring your own thing, shirt or tote) for your own customized memento.
   
• Hey vinyl fans, where you at? Add to your collection and find that special record you’ve been looking for at our make-shift vinyl market.
