Coathangers at Fusebox
Festival kickoff at the Long Center

Invasion of the New Grrl Order was choreographed by Allison Orr of Forklift Danceworks and Girls Rock Austin founder Emily Marks.
Seeing the Coathangers perform during lunch at Girls Rock Camp Austin a couple years go brought me, my friends, and the band to tears, so attending this event on the Long Center's lawn was a must. Watching tiny riot grrrls scream "leave my stuff alone" is anger at its cutest.
