Cabaret Macabre LogoThat’s right kiddies. The Bad Things return to the Columbia City Theater for their annual Halloween bacchanal, Cabaret Macabre, celebrating its 12th anniversary.

This year’s lineup is set to be a humdinger, with Baby Gramps returning for his annual appearance, Balkan misfits Bucharest Drinking Team bringing their bombastic take on Eastern European party music, the gin-soaked rag-blues of The Jug Banditos and interspersed throughout the evening, burlesque and dance performance from Sinner Saint Burlesque and Miss J9 Fierce, co-producer of Cabaret Macabre. Diva Le Deviant returns as our host and closing out the night, will be your own Bad Things.

Tickets go on sale on Tuesday, September 1st at 10am at Brown Paper Tickets, unless of course you were lucky enough to attend in the past or are on The Bad Things mailing list. If that’s you, check your inbox for a special fan club pre-sale. The rest of you hang tight and get them tickets quick before they’re gone on September 1st!

Still need some convincing? Here’s us performing with J9 Fierce last year:

See Ya’ll Soon!

Well, Cabaret Macabre was a smashing success full of incredible music, dancing, costumery, debaucherous activities of all sort, perfect….perfect.

An appropriate send-off for a well-needed rest. We announced on Facebook and at the show but we will be going on hiatus for an indefinite period of time while we recharge, relax and focus on other things. We have no doubt we’ll be back, just not sure when at the moment. May be six months, may be longer.

We’ll still update the site as we got tons of live tracks, unreleased tracks, videos, anecdotes and lord knows what else that we can share. Stay tuned for the next show! Bad Things out.

P.S. Here are some fan photos from our set at Cabaret Macabre. Enjoy!

Well, the time is upon us. The big anniversary show is tomorrow and we’re anxiously preparing for what is sure to be a night of old friends, new friends, singalongs, tears, beers and more beers.

For the past couple weeks, I have been digging through old boxes of photos, scanning some of my favorite shots of the band and sharing them on our Facebook page. It’s been a great way for me to actually start tracking the dates of gigs that I was too drunk to remember. Took some research, some Google searching of old Stranger calendars, trying to read faded dates on the backs of old drugstore-developed photographs.  Continue reading →

Well, it’s been a while hasn’t it friends?  The Bad Things have been busy little beavers during this last spring and summer.  Playing some low-key gigs with our new member, writing a ton of new material, and gearing up for the release of our new CD with Danbert Nobacon coming out on October 19th on Verbal Burlesque records.  The cover art is above and was done by Danbert.  Here’s a little blurb about it from the press release: Continue reading →

Bad Things winter report!

Well friends,

It was one hell of a fall here in Seattle.  We did our run of The Breaking at the Can Can, we recorded an album with Danbert Nobacon of Chumbawamba and rocked the great little town of Twisp, we got to play for The Tiger Lillies (a huge influence on us), we did our 6th Annual Cabaret Macabre in a swanky theatre this time instead of in a stinky bar (I think we’ll do a stinky bar again next year…much more fitting), and we got to the grace the stage of the Moore Theatre as part of the First Annual Seattle International Cabaret Festival.  Go Bad Things!

So now we’re catching our breath, hunkering down, and starting to work on new material.  We’re not planning on doing any shows until March or so but would like to get down to Portland since it’s been a while.  Possibly San Fran in the spring as well. Continue reading →
