Beast of the East 2011: a massive convergence of derby teams from all over the East Coast coming to compete in a high-stakes derby tournament. But only one team can win and be declared the Beast of the East! May the best derby team win! Tickets are technically sold out, but organizers promise to have some openings for fans around 2pm. Check out their Facebook account for updates on both days. Arena St-Louis, 5633 Saint-Dominique.

[UPDATE] I’m happy to report that both the Death Track Dolls and Chicks Ahoy! are through to the quarter-finals at Beast of the East 2011. The Gore-Gore Rollergirls are now playing their final game in hopes of making it to the quarter-finals, and you can watch it live right here:
