Second Annual CounterCrawl Downtown Houston Oct 8-9

by Bill Davenport October 5, 2011

The second annual CounterCrawl prepares to collect un-gallery art, a lot of musical performances and an ever-increasing mob to a cityscape that may, at last, not be uninhabitably hot. This weekend, Saturday Oct 8 and Sunday Oct 9, marks CounterCrawl’s second year, although it’s hard to tell: one group of the loosely-knit collective that’s behind the event says it is planned for “every few months.”

There are a lot of semi-incoherent leaflets and flyers being designed: the most recent declares stops for the alt-bike-a-thon will be the Last Organic Outpost, the Compound, the Silo, and a couple of mystery venues, but all that’s certain is that the ride/party begins at 2pm on Saturday October 8 and goes on all night finally breaking up Sunday morning.

The schedule has changed a little bit within the last couple of days but this is a pretty comprehensive schedule as far as times and locations go! Archie took lion among men’s spot, outer heaven is now known as vipers white crime replaced free radicals, and spiel dropped out but we are looking for a replacement as I’m typing! Thanks so much for the hype, we really love and appreciate our community and enjoy bringing all forms of Houston culture into the view of many who would not have known previously!
