According to Hot Topic Manager Seth Gile, in malls across the United States, there has been a growing interest in putting on live in-store performances among Hot Topic employees. Recently the notion caught Hot Topic corporate’s attention, and they are now making the idea a reality. Artists at Eau Claire’s Oakwood Mall location will include local acts their customers would like, plus touring acts. Local indie pop duo The New Science played to crowd of a couple dozen last month and Chicago pop punk band The Frantic played May 8th on a Hot Topic “Maul” Tour. Expect one to two Friday shows a month. We’ll keep you posted in our calendars, too.
