Sick New World sideshows: Music festival artists add dates on Strip

Apparently the Sick New World fest is contagious, as the event is spreading from a single day to infect an entire weekend come April with numerous sideshows.

With the sold-out nü metal and heavy music festival taking place on Saturday, April 27, at the Las Vegas Festival Grounds, additional shows have been added featuring some of the acts on the lineup at various venues across the Las Vegas Strip in the days before and after.

Better invest in a neck brace, pronto.

Among the shows:

Thursday, April 25

- Chevelle at the House of Blues at Mandalay Bay.

- Front 242 and Nitzer Ebb at Brooklyn Bowl at The Linq.

Friday, April 26

- Bring Me The Horizon with Spirit Box at BleauLive Theater inside Fontainebleau Las Vegas.

- Static-X and Sevendust with Dope at The Pearl at the Palms.

- Wage War and Nothing More with Veil of Maya and Sleep Theory at Brooklyn Bowl.

Sunday, April 28
