Blitzkid Returns to Germany for first club show in 11 years! 

Blitzkid is ausfarht-ing it back to Germany this summer for our first European Club show in over 11 years!   We will be playing a Druckluft in Oberhausen Germany on August 4th 2023 with long-time friends THE CRIMSON GHOSTS as support. This special one-off show will be our warm-up show to a really big festival we have just been confirmed for (but aren't at the liberty to announce yet) ;) Stay tuned for more on that soon!  In the meantime get your tickets HERE and we'll see you creeps this summer!   (Flyer by: Johnny Ott). 

BLITZKID VIRTUAL HALLOWEEN SHOW! (Ticket info) 

 

 

We're excited to announce that despite the ongoing Covid saga forcing us to reschedule our fall tour plans, Blitzkid will assemble next month to record "ALL HALLOW'S STRE'EM"- a full live set at The historic Witch's Dungeon Classic Movie Museum which we will broadcast/streem live on Halloween night!  

The event will open with a virtual tour of the Witch's Dungeon itself, where an in house guide will lead you past over 20 lifesize horror movie figures plus memorabilia that includes original parts of the Creature from the Black Lagoon suit, one of three existing rings actually worn by Bela Lugosi in Dracula and many more original movie props such as the screen used golden idol from Raiders of the Lost Ark.   

The tour concludes with the scariest exhibit of them all- US!  From here we will blister through over one solid hour of classic Blitzkid tunes with maybe even a few seasonal covers thrown in the mix.   

Tickets go on sale 8/24/20 at 3pm EST (((HERE))).

Tickets will be in the form of unique access codes that allows you to view the event Halloween night.  The show (beginning with the tour) will kick off at 9pm EST- but if you can't catch it then, no worries- the codes are good for 24 hours (so until 9pm EST the next night).   

Goolsby will also be premiering "Nosferatu- A Cinematic Seance" (1922's Nosferatu containing his newly composed score) on the same platform earlier the very same evening so if you wanna make  

a solid evening out of it, pick up a ticket for that screening, too!  Tickets for this event will go on sale at the same time at tickets for "ALL HALLOW'S STRE'EM" go up next week.   

Directly after the screening, links to purchase the dvd/cd combo of the film/score will be made available for the first time anywhere.   

We're super bummed that we cant see your ghoulish faces in person this Hallowe'en, but we look forward to sharing it with you in spirit (no pun intended).  It's not every year that Hallowe'en falls on a Saturday, same night daylight savings time and a full moon! We'll be howling at it with you soon.       

  

See ya in the dungeon!

 

Escape the Grave Tour Rescheduled for MAY 2021 

Due to ongoing complications related to all things Coronavirus, the Blitzkid tour scheduled to begin next month is being moved to May 2021. We’re sorry it has to get pushed back yet again, but with state to state variances regarding policies towards allowing live music (as well as mounting travel restrictions)-the coordination of a cohesive month long US tour is impossible to arrange at the moment. We will still be playing the same cities/markets in May so if you’ve already bought a ticket or a VIP ticket those will be still be honored for the new dates. We’ll have more info regarding the new dates soon and we will update you guys accordingly. Thanks so much for being patient with his and understanding that we are doing all we can to get out there to see you as soon as possible. In the meantime take care and long live the horror!

Blitzkid Escape The Grave tour RESCHEDULED FOR OCTOBER 

 

We’re sorry to announce that due to the ongoing COVID-19 crisis, and moreover the growing restrictions placed by the federal government upon events and gatherings, Blitzkid are left with no choice but to reschedule our Escape The Grave Tour dates which were scheduled to begin next month. 

BUT FEAR NOT, TRUE BELIEVERS! We have already begun the process of moving the entire tour into the fall, and most of the dates are near confirmed! As it stands, very little will change in relation to our routing and the cities/venues in which we were scheduled to appear. 

We are also extending the tour to now include dates in the Pacific Northwest! 

We hope to have the rescheduled dates ready to announce within the next 2 weeks, but hopefully sooner. 

All existing ticket and VIP holders will be honored so hang onto them! 

We’re really sorry to have to postpone like this. We held out as long as we could- but even if federal mandates were not preventing us from giving it a shot, we could not in good conscience risk exposing our fans and friends to any potential harm. And if catching Blitzkid on a cool autumn night isn’t already a step up, wait until you see the rad hoodies we can now bring! 

For now- be safe out there. Take care of yourselves. Take care of each other. Be mindful, and rest assured you will be seeing us sooner than you think.

Argyle Goolsby guest appearance at The Witch's Dungeon 

Argyle Goolsby will be a making a special guest appearance at THE WITCH'S DUNGEON in Bristol, CT. on Fri. Oct. 25th.

The historic Witch's Dungeon opened in Bristol, Connecticut in 1966 as a tribute to the actors & effects artists who have given us a legacy of classic fantasy films. The Witch's Dungeon features highly accurate life size figures based on the classic films of Lon Chaney, Boris Karloff, Bela Lugosi, Vincent Price and others from the golden age of horror & sci-fi cinema- all created and assembled by Cortlandt Hull, nephew of Henry Hull- (aka- Universal's Werewolf of London). The museum is considered the longest running exhibit of its kind in the country. 

Housed therein is everything from the original golden idol in the opening scene of Raiders of the Lost Ark, to the original spinning prop head of Linda Blair from the Exorcist, to Prototype Creature from the Black Lagoon costume pulls. The list goes on! 

So stop by and say hello, and grab a photo with Goolsby... and perhaps the lifesize Count Orlok lurking about the halls.
