Northside Festival came and went this past week, along Saturday’s stifling hot weather

It happened

Have you walked past that closed down bar in Ridgewood on Harman St and Seneca Ave with the crazy neon signs and the blacked out windows thinking someone needs to do something with this place? You will thrilled to learn that hey, someone’s doing something with this place! Ridgewood resident, bartendress, and musician Laura Regan is fulfilling a longtime dream to finally open her own venue

It’s not necessarily the worst outside yet, but it’s not fun

“Where are we going tonight?” is probably the most common question on every Bushwick resident’s mind as the weekend approaches

Everyone wants to know what’s happening this Halloween; where are the best cover shows? Where can we wear our glow in the dark skeleton unitards? Where are the spooky dance parties at? Well, look no further; Bushwick Daily has got you covered on all of the above and more! Check out the best Bushwick/ Williamsburg […]

In case you were unaware of this gem, David Bowie and Mick Jagger covered “Dancing in the Streets,” back in their hay day, and it seems pretty representative of what everyone should do this weekend

We hope you aren’t tired of summer festivals yet because this one is also not to be missed! Last year, Out In the Streets included a stellar lineup with Turnip King, Wild Yaks, and Pictureplane and this weekend get ready for another awesome lineup of music with headliners including A Place to Bury Strangers, Body Language, Hunters, as well as Memphis’ Cities Aviv! Bird Dog Productions, The Sky Report, and Supercrush Studio have teamed up to put on this festival at the Onderdonk house in Ridgewood for the second year, and promise us music, art and food! YES!

Did you make it out to the 1

It may seem as though we are always making it look like there is endless music out there over the weekend, (which typically there is, we swear)

Yes, we know it’s really hot out there–and oddly windy on certain recent nights! But, think back to the winter when we thought we would never sweat again

It’s that time again! America’s Birthday; another great reason to have outdoor shows, BBQ everything in sight and celebrate for the entire four days whether or not you have any patriotism in your bones

Remember when the Girls took to Bushwick to rage out in a warehouse and (accidentally) smoke crack? Well, that’s not the route we recommend you go this weeken–maybe instead grab a 5-hour energy to get your fix as you hop around art shows by day and hit the rock and roll by night! Not all these shows are tied in with Bushwick Open Studios, but they will all be mega-fun and nothing like the gif above (hopefully?)

If you’re tired of all the standard brunch places within walking distance of your Bushwick apartment, or you just want to try something new, come to Miles for a Wake-Up Call! This day-drinker-centric brunch includes a menu complete with Bloody Marys, delicious cocktails/hangover cures, and happy hour until 8pm. But never fear, there are also savory hand-pies and […]

[contextly_auto_sidebar id=”dN8fROFYJAemosL3KkZKvVIwUAfhxNWH”] While there are still ridiculously cold days, we can all be thankful that spring is (mostly) here and finally we can party outdoors… or continue to hang indoors, thankful we can do so without giant coats.  We can potentially start our hangouts earlier and possibly outdoors, and maybe even have a backyard BBQ. […]
