From the Event Organizers: “Corporate techlords rule the world like a bored kid clicking around in SimCity 2000. And you work for them, because the snacks are free. We get it, we used to be just like you — did the cringy bidding of the same data-driven demigods — our wills waning, souls wasting, waiting silently for our stocks to vest.
“Then we quit. Formed a fearless band of renegade tech comedians.
“Now we roam from town to town, roasting whimpering techies like you in front of live crowds. We have sold out shows in Austin, L.A., N.Y., Seattle, San Francisco and Mountain View — but this will be our first time in San Jose.”
Ages 18+, only. (I.D. required.)
Doors open at 7pm.

100 gecs planted their flag on the proverbial pop culture moon with their 2019 debut album 1000 gecs, which was heralded by The New Yorker as “an impressively precise maximalist exercise with no rules” and “utterly unhinged in the best way possible” by GQ.
The innovative project captured the hearts of fans and critics alike — selling out all of their live shows to date, along with the New York Times calling it “some of the savviest pop music of the year” and Rolling Stone dubbing it “one of 2019’s most exciting debuts.”
In just a few months following the release of 1,000 gecs, the band went from playing their first concert from inside the video game Minecraft to selling out shows across the country, proving that their rabid, rapidly multiplying fanbase doesn’t only exist in the far corners of the internet.
After their world tour was postponed in the summer of 2020, Brady and Les kept rolling with the release of 1,000 gecs and The Tree of Clues, a rework of the original album featuring collaborations from the likes of A. G. Cook, Fall Out Boy, Charli XCX, and Rico Nasty, as well as crowd sourced contributions by fans. The transformative release was described by NME as a “brain-melting, genre-crushing vision of pop’s future.”
Their subsequent international touring over the past two years has sent the unlikely wizard-cloaked pied pipers jumping from sold-out show to sold-out show, seemingly two steps ahead of the zeitgeist, not to mention having a blast while doing it.
Machine Girl is also scheduled to perform.
Tickets are on sale as of January 27.

America’s premier comedian, Jerry Seinfeld, will be here to perform his newest stand-up routine. He has been hailed for his uncanny ability to joke about the little things in life that relate to audiences everywhere.
Jerry Seinfeld’s comedy career took off after his first appearance on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson in 1981. Eight years later, he teamed up with fellow comedian Larry David to create what was to become one of the most successful comedy series in the history of television: Seinfeld. The show ran on NBC for nine seasons, winning numerous Emmy, Golden Globe and People’s Choice awards, and was named the greatest television show of all time in 2009 by TV Guide, and in 2012 was identified as the “best sitcom ever” in a 60 Minutes/Vanity Fair poll.
His latest Emmy-nominated Netflix projects include Jerry Before Seinfeld and 23 Hours to Kill, along with the highly acclaimed web series, “Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee.”
Seinfeld has also starred in, written, and produced movies (Comedian, Bee Movie), directed and produced a Broadway hit (Colin Quinn Long Story Short), and wrote two best-selling books (Is this Anything? and Seinlanguage) and a children’s book (Halloween).
Seinfeld recently announced his upcoming film Unfrosted, and he continues to perform both nationally and internationally.

Created by Grammy Award-winning songwriter Wayne Kirkpatrick and successful screenwriters Karey Kirkpatrick and John O’Farrell, Something Rotten! was lauded by audience members and critics alike, receiving several Best Musical nominations and hailed by Time Out New York as “the funniest musical comedy in at least 400 years”.

Acclaimed Japanese rock band Radwimps are thrilled to finally be headed back to play in North America this Spring.
Radwimps have also recently teamed up with highly acclaimed film music composer Kazuma Jinnouchi to create the perfect soundtrack and score for award-winning auteur director Makoto Shinkai’s latest film Suzume, which hits North America theaters in April 14, distributed by Crunchyroll. The physical release of the soundtrack will coincide with the movie launch stateside and Radwimps U.S. tour. Suzume is the story about a young girl traveling through various ruins across Japan while closing doors causing disaster.

The band has released nine studio albums thus far. The band’s creation of music for Shinkai’s previous record-breaking animated feature films Your Name and Weathering with You led to recognition at the Japanese Academy Award for Best Original Score. Their musical activities go far beyond Japan, including touring extensively around the world.
In November 2021, the band released their latest studio album, Forever Daze, and went on the road for a nationwide Japanese tour to support the album. Forever Daze was written and recorded throughout the pandemic and speaks to the musical challenges the guys faced, their hopes moving forward, and it features a diverse group of collaborators and experimental elements. The album welcomed guest artists including the famous actor/singer Masaki Suda, as well as two of the most up-and-coming artists, Awich and iri.

Cinderella is a classical ballet composed by Sergei Prokofiev, first performed in 1945. Prokofiev’s music for the ballet is renowned for its sweeping melodies, lush orchestration and charming melodies, making it an enduring classic that continues to be performed all over the world. With its timeless story of love, kindness, and perseverance, Cinderella remains one of the most beloved ballets of all time.
A wealthy merchant widower has a beautiful and kind daughter. He knows he cannot care for her alone, so he marries a woman with two other children around his daughter’s age. His new wife is jealous of Cinderella’s beauty and the love her father has for her and treats her poorly. The Stepmother forces the young girl to do housework while her own daughters are doted upon.
The kingdom announces a ball for the young Prince to meet his future bride. All the ladies of the household are thrilled to attend, but Cinderella is told she cannot go. She helps her stepsisters and stepmother get ready to leave for the ball and finds herself alone and crying, because she is not able to attend. A beggar woman finds Cinderella and Cinderella helps the old woman because her heart is pure.
The old woman magically transforms into Cinderella’s Fairy Godmother. Her Godmother waves her wand and Cinderella’s tattered house dress becomes a beautiful ball gown. The fairies of Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter come, each offering her their season’s gift. The nymphs of the forest come to celebrate the magic of the evening.
At the palace, the court jester is waiting for the ball to begin. As the guests arrive, a large celebration commences. Cinderella arrives late, and she is so beautiful that not even her stepsisters recognize her. The Prince is entranced and falls instantly in love with her. As the night comes to an end, Cinderella must leave the ball before midnight or risk losing the magic of her transformation.
In her haste to leave, she loses one of her slippers, which the prince uses to search for her and find out her true identity. When he arrives at Cinderella’s home, her stepmother and stepsisters try to claim the slipper as their own, but Cinderella produces the matching shoe revealing her to be the mysterious princess. The prince and Cinderella are then married in a grand celebration.
