Still have faith in the rock opera format, even after the Decemberists’ valiant but failed attempt at validating and reigniting interest in the genre earlier this year? Well, maybe Aran Keating, the AK from AK Slaughter, has the recipe for you in the form of Grundlehammer, a full-on and homegrown rock opera by the Baltimore Rock Opera Society.
Tonight’s show at the LOF/T in Load of Fun features AK Slaughter, Lizz King, Macgregor Burns, Wild Bonerz, and a host of others in a variety show benefit for the BROS production of Grundlehammer. Get in on it.
