Monsters at the Midway 2023

Once a year there's a night that seems to be a little…darker than other nights. A night where the cackling of sinister laughter carries in the wind, where eyes seem to peer out from the tree line, only to disappear when you return their glance. On this night, creatures crawl from the shadows, scuddle out from under the bed, descend from storm clouds, and take to the streets. They search through cursed streets, through hollow eye sockets, scouring the night in an endless search…

For a rad-ass party.

Join us on Halloween night for the party of your nightmares! We'll be running classic Halloween games, spooky activities, and featuring music from some of Boston's best spooky and sinister bands! You'll see performances throughout the night from

Coffin Salesman!

Minusworld!

Thou Merciless Graves!

And Your Friends in Hell!

And make sure you dress to impress for your chance at winning our costume contest!

This isn't your usual show, so spend your favorite night of the year with all your favorite ghouls at the Midway!

Presented by TinyOak Booking!

Come see your favorite video game characters SHAKE IT at SHOW ME YOUR BITS! 8-bit burlesque performers will be running, jumping and LEVELING UP by TAKING IT OFF at this one night event. Find out what Mario and Peach get up to when our heroic plumber actually finds THE RIGHT CASTLE! Discover just how sexy Sly Cooper can be! Check out all our pixels and enjoy pre-show classic video games provided by Gauntlet Gaming. Video game inspired music by Minusworld, Sam Mulligan and A Secret Special Guest!

About Professor Caffeine & the Insecurities

Once upon a time (er, the year 2014) in the mythical land of the South Shore, a bunch of nerds who could play instruments got drunk together and decided to start a band. Calling on cumulative influences ranging from the 2000's emo & post-hardcore scenes to classic 70's progressive rock, the music began to take shape. A few years, two records, some covers of your favorite tunes, and thousands of beers later Professor Caffeine & the Insecurities is continuing to tear up the whatever-you-wanna-call-it scene in Boston with a signature combination of erratic progressive hardcore and post-emo singalong worthy rock and roll.

About Minusworld

Synthrock band MINUSWORLD loves big, high-energy synth/guitar riffs matched with driving dance and rock rhythms. Fronted by Melissa Carubia on vocals and keytar, with Michael Hawver on guitar, John Fraley on bass and Dave Green on drums, we play tracks that emphasize fun and nerd-nostalgia. Our audiences delight as they unlock "Mini-Songs" throughout our shows--short covers of famous video game, television, and movie themes. Our newest EP entitled DANCING IN THE ASHES, available on iTunes, Spotify, Amazon Music (et al.), features all of this in the title track: a song about surviving the zombie apocalypse through the power of dance. Recently, we have made appearances at Boston Circus Guild’s CIRQUE OF THE DEAD, Boston's Sci-Fi/Fantasy convention, Arisia, and at the MAGFest Jamspace stage at PAX East.
