On the surface Two Piece Fest Midwest looks like it’s been designed to appeal to music fans with a thing for numbers. The daylong DIY event is a celebration of bands with only two members, and it takes place on Saturday, which is 2/22, and there are 22 bands on the bill. In reality Two Piece Fest wasn’t created just for this weekend, and it’s got a bit of a history: Philadelphia punk dudes Peter Helmis (of Algernon Cadwallader) and Craig Woods (of Towers and Hot Bagels) started it years ago as a way to celebrate their own two-piece band, Peter & Craig; last weekend they put on the seventh installment of the Philly fest.

What year was that?
Yeah. That’s Peter & Craig.
Given you moved here in the fall, how are you able to keep the band going?
