Anything Could Happen transformed the Octogan Club into a playful recreation of Roy Colbert's legendary Records Records and a concert venue. Records Records saw the legacy of the Dunedin Sound reimagined and interrogated. Visitors could sing their favourite songs as part of the Dunedin Sound Karaoke, and were invited to bring along their favourite old cassettes and participate in Andrea McSweeney’s ongoing Mix Tape Gallery.

The evenings featured collaborative performances that treated the Dunedin Sound as a living, evolving entity. There were satellite events at Machine Project and KCHUNG Radio in Los Angeles, California.
