About

Parade of Flesh is a solo “boutique” booking operation based in DALLAS, TX. Originally founded as a live music-video site in 2003 (prior to youtube), I began hosting random, hand-curated, (DIY) shows from 2004-06, then in 2007 became a little more consistent. I have access to multiple venues/spaces with capacity ranging from 100 – 1000+. Shows will primarily feature a national touring band. FYI, most shows that fall Sunday through Thursday will end around midnight, but you know how that goes.

Parade of Flesh is not a corporate funded company disguised as an independent; nor do we have “INVESTORS”.  We are the real deal: a truly independent promoter/booker focusing on QUALITY not quantity. We would rather book and promote bands we love than bands we feel “meh” about; we realize not every band is for us.

Press inquires: If you’d like to preview a show, , online or in print, at least 48 hours prior to show date, then you will be comped to a show. If you choose to review a show, then contact band(s) directly. Thanks.
