HOLY SHIT! Frostapalooza is happening in exactly one month!

I’d really, really, really, truly love for you to come to this one-of-a-kind, one-night-only concert fandango happening on August 17th in Pittsburgh. Here’s 40 reasons why you should come:

  1. You’re interested in the answer to the question: “What happens when you put 40 talented musicians together to operate as a single band?”
  2. You’re also interested in the answer to the question: “What happens when you give those musicians a whole year to plan a single night of music?”
  3. All concert proceeds go to two really important causes.
  4. One of the beneficiaries is Project Healthy Minds, a non-profit doing amazing work to destigmify mental health issues and get people access to mental health care.
  5. The other beneficiary is NextStep Pittsburgh, a spinal cord rehabilitation center headed up by my cousin Claire.
  6. The night is an unabashed celebration of life, community, family, friends, and fun.
  7. This is a one-night-only affair and will never happen again.
  8. The show will be held at the beautiful Mr Smalls Theatre, a church-turned-music-venue that has amazing acoustics and has given me so many amazing musical memories. They Might Be Giants even wrote a song about Mr. Smalls!
  9. I have 600 glow sticks in my possession and need to use them.
  10. It’s been a while since you’ve had your face melted by blistering guitar solos.
  11. Each song will feature a rotating cast of between 7 and close to 20 (!!!) musicians.
  12. The musicians, my family, and friends have all been busting their asses for close to a year to prepare for this show.
  13. FULL HORN SECTION, featuring the incredible talent and raw energy of Elby Brass
  14. Some musicians are current and former music pros who have toured the world, released albums, and done the whole professional music thing. This is the real deal!
  15. Many of the musicians are luminaries in the world of design, development, and design systems. You can get to see them rock the house and rub shoulders with your web heroes.
  16. All of the musicians are not just talented, but also amazingly wonderful, generous, and cool human beings.
  17. I made a disco helmet for the occasion.
  18. We all need an excuse to wear some funky party clothes from time to time.
  19. I’m so incredibly passionate about this and am excited to share it with you all.
  20. Pittsburgh is beautiful this time of year!
  21. Dance your ass off.
  22. The show is all ages and I guarantee kids will have fun.
  23. Only 20 bucks! I guarantee you’ll have at least 20 dollars’ worth of fun.
  24. Why yes, we do have 5 synthesizers, 3 guitar rigs, a musical saw, an accordion, and a whole lot more more!
  25. Make new friends! Based on the guest list so far, SO MANY incredible people are traveling from all over the world to be there.
  26. We all desperately need more communal experiences in our lives.
  27. When have I ever steered you wrong?
  28. DJ Rave Mustaine will be spinning when the doors open until show time.
  29. Beer!
  30. I promise to share exactly one piece of design system advice so you can write the whole thing off as a business expense.
  31. There will be a DJ after party at The Government Center featuring the incredibly saucy John Mullin from New York City.
  32. We have enough percussion instruments to make Santana jealous.
  33. Remind yourself of the fact that life has a lot more to offer than constant feelings of existential dread and anxiety that come with our modern existence.
  34. August 17th is Saturday night! When’s the last time you had a great Saturday night out on the town?
  35. We’re covering SO MUCH musical terrain: rock and roll, indie rock, pop, funk, dance, and a whole lot more.
  36. This is very likely the biggest creative project I’ve ever embarked on, and would love to share it with you.
  37. Ever wanted to crowd surf?
  38. You need more slap bass in your life.
  39. This doubles as my 40th birthday party and your presence is the best gift you can give me.
  40. You deserve happiness, joy, music, and fun in your life.

Sounds pretty great, right? Get yer tickets right here and we’ll see you at the show. It’s gonna be a lot of fun!
