PPIM Field Trip

For anyone who's lived through or is a fan of Industrial music, Goth and Post-Punk eras, we have an opportunity to visit an iconic piece of those musics history.

Martin Atkins (PIL, Ministry, Pigface, etc) opened the Post Punk and Industrial Music Museum 5 years ago in Chicago's Bridgeport neighborhood. To say this project has been a labor of love is only something one can appreciate by stepping through the doors of this institution.

Since it's founding, Martin has received thousands of ephemera documenting the tangled and twisted history of these music genres. And the list continues to grow. The perfect expression of DIY and community.

Martin will tour us through the museum, and afterward perhaps we grab some dinner in Bridgeport, for those able to and willing to stay out a little later 😅

I'm expecting the tour to take an hour, though it might be shorter, or longer (likely longer). Martin loves to share stories and go deep. But you're welcome to bolt as needed.

Important Note (Pricing):

Cultural institutions like this need cash :). Please consider buying something from the gift shop (which is rather insane) and / or donating $45 for the tour.
