Rotture also has had Richard Pinhas (Heldon) play there. Talk about  
loop cred!  Whoa!  And, the place has also had others not so "rude".  
(haha)
But yes, it is usually a more rockin' joint, TMK.  And also, a lot of  
"rockers", and even some of those that are their audience, are also  
gear heads and may be intrigued by a fest based on
looping gear, and various looping tactics, and applications, and so  
on. And, there are even some loopers that go there! :-)
