Noise Pop 2012: A Handy Guide to Our Complete Coverage
Christopher Victorio Party's over... 'till next year.
Well, kids, it's over. Noise Pop's 20th anniversary has come and gone, leaving lots of sold-out shows, earsplitting climaxes, elated Tweets, credit-limit-busting cab fares, and wicked hangovers in its path. As we try to get this ringing out of our ears, let us bid farewell to this year's festival by rounding up the rather large number of posts and stories we here at SF Weekly and All Shook Down produced about Noise Pop 2012. Here they are below, organized by type and date, so you can relive the magic (or at least what we said about it). So read on! And with that, Noise Pop, we'll see you back here next year.
