The useful way into the first October weekend is a short trip to Ridgewood. From Thursday, October 1, through Sunday, October 4, TV Eye hosts three bills that share a hard-rock perimeter while leaving room for very different points of entry: Veneraxiom with Glorious Descent, Satanic Magick, and Funeral Dancer on Thursday; GayC/DC with Guns n’ Hoses on Friday; and London-based Powerplant with Carrion Kids and Factory City Children on Sunday. The sequence gives the room a concentrated heavy-music run across a weekend when the city’s calendar pulls in several directions. TV Eye describes itself as a venue, bar, dance club, gallery, and eatery, an apt setting for a program built around changing bills and long evenings under one roof.[1]

Thursday begins at 7:00 PM with Veneraxiom’s four-act bill. The candidate lineup places Veneraxiom alongside Glorious Descent, Satanic Magick, and Funeral Dancer, so the draw is the shape of a fully loaded metal night instead of a single-support-slot presentation. That makes it a good first stop for listeners who want the opening night of the weekend to feel communal and local in scale: several names, one room, and enough time for the bill to develop. TV Eye sits at 1647 Weirfield Street on the Ridgewood–Bushwick border, with the L and M trains identified by the venue as nearby transit options.[1]

Friday, October 2, turns over at 7:00 PM to GayC/DC and Guns n’ Hoses. The pairing’s playful names make the evening a deliberate change in tone from Thursday’s darker billing, while the supplied calendar still places it in TV Eye’s rock-and-metal lane. Keep the emphasis on the event itself: two acts, a Friday start time, and a compact room whose public-facing identity includes bands, dancing, food, and drinks across multiple spaces. That range is part of the appeal here. A show can remain the night’s center while the venue gives early arrivals somewhere to settle and late finishers a reason to stay in the building.[1]

Powerplant closes a North American run

Sunday’s 7:00 PM Powerplant show is the clearest anchor. Ground Control Touring identifies Powerplant as the project of Ukraine-born, London-based Theo Zhykharyev and traces its catalog from the synth-punk debut People in the Sun through dungeon synth, rock-oriented releases, and the newer Bridge of Sacrifice. The agency’s itinerary lists TV Eye on October 4 as the final date after stops in Washington, Baltimore, and Philadelphia; Powerplant’s own Bandcamp also presents Bridge of Sacrifice as its current LP and flags a September U.S. tour. That documented run gives the TV Eye booking a practical sense of arrival: a final city date with Carrion Kids and Factory City Children attached.[2][3]

For listeners deciding among the three, Thursday is the fuller multi-band metal bill, Friday is the most playfully framed pairing, and Sunday has the strongest touring context. Powerplant’s material has moved across synth-punk, dungeon synth, 1980s rock references, and black-metal-inflected writing, according to its touring agency, so its closing set connects naturally to a weekend whose edges are rock and metal without requiring all three nights to do the same job. The Sunday billing also leaves room for Carrion Kids and Factory City Children to define the immediate local texture around the headliner.[2][3]
