It’s like a Pink Floyd show, but with a lot less Floyd. Tonight’s Bright Night celebration ends at midnight with a laser light show in Kennedy Plaza that might look something like this generic photograph. Buttons for Bright Night activities cost $15 — for a list of events go here. Keep in mind that this includes the AS220 Café, which starts at 6pm with a poetry slam, continuing through the evening with Rory Raven, Matt the Knife a sword-swallower, and at 10pm Alec K. Redfearn and the Seizures, and 11pm to 2am a dance party with sideshow artists.
But the weirdest scene of the evening may be the act over at the RI Convention Center — a Swiss daredevil family with the totally metal name, The Nerveless Nocks (been in the business for nine generations). Fun fact: The Nerveless Nocks performed with the Beatles on The Ed Sullivan Show on February 16, 1964. Nocks pix after the jump.
When not in the ‘Vortex of Doom’ or the ‘Globe of Death’ the Nocks can be found in the ‘Photoshop Skyway of Entropy’
Nock Nock, who’s there?
Caroline Nock.
And little Cyrus Nock — The Toddler of Death!
