“NO AUDIENCE. NO SHOW.” A TALE OF DIY TRIUMPH
Memphis noise rock band Pressed hosted an impromptu DIY show at a storage unit with touring act Tongue Party. The show had originally been booked at Murphy’s, but was cancelled by the owner in a drunken fit before doors opened for what he cited as “no audience”. Tongue Party played to around 40 people that night.
