A blue moon isn’t typically blue, but it is unusual and we’ll get to see one tonight

What a great month this has been! It’s finally gotten warm and we can relax in our backyards, on our roofs or take a trip to the beach, and gay couples can finally freely marry just like anybody else everywhere in America!

Maybe it’s the promise of a female president or a little princess across the pond, but this weekend’s shows are definitely for the ladies

Once upon a time (in 2008 to be precise), three friends decided to open a restaurant in Bushwick (ok, it was actually in East Williamsburg, but go explain that in Manhattan)

It’s no surprise the famous groundhog that is Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow again this year

It’s cold outside

CMJ festival frenzy has taken over the NYC’s music scene, however one Bushwick music venue has not been able to host live music due to a temporary restraining order issued by the court

CMJ only seems like a drag if a) you’re in a band that’s playing 3+ shows; b) you don’t know how to navigate the madness

We hope you are all as jazzed about CMJ as we are! The festival is the College Music Journal’s “Music Marathon”- a completely amazing (and exhausting) week (October 21-25, 2014) of live music, giving the music community a chance to catch the best new artists from around the world before they blow up

Starting tonight, Bushwick and its environs will be filled with a palpable art zeitgeist that will get you feeling feline-frisky! There’s a crisp feel to the air, the leaves are starting to changes, yet it is still warm enough to warrant a great gallery hop

Have you seen a distinctive red splotched window peeking out from the corner of Noll St and Flushing Ave and wondered, in a King Noodle-induced frenzy, what the heck was that place?  The mysterious storefront holds the home of Bushwick’s newest, and possibly most stylish, tattoo shop

Bushwick galleries are kicking up the pace as we enter into the mid-summer scape. While the rest of the art world may be on vacation (oh we’re not jealous of the sand, surf and sun they’re experiencing—okay maybe we are…) we are experiencing more commotion from the current set. Bushwick’s summer kids are in a sort of microcosm—a […]

We’re back from Austin, suitcase full of freebies, ears ringing, and working our way through the week-long hangover that was SXSW

Confrontational and jarring, the artists at once built up notions of the beauty of the body and tore them down on Friday during the third weekend in Grace Exhibition Space’s month-long “Climate Change” series, featuring performance artists from all over the world as part of the Brooklyn International Performance Art Festival

Summer is peaking, and the week(end) doesn’t end this Thursday, dear friends

The gods of good press where very good to the Bushwick folk, and some big celebrations were undoubtedly held at several Bushwick apartments

Who wouldn’t love good ol’ printed literary journals that give a dose of nostalgia, and make you want to thumb thorough their pages and inhale the smell of the paper

If you’re one of the 200,000 people to descend upon Austin’s city limits to partake in SXSW (and you know how to do it right now), and you want to see some of your favorite Brooklyn/Bushwick bands, you can do so at one of two places – at an official showcase (where festival badges/wristbands ARE required) or at one of the many free shows they will be playing next week

A bandit ordered a sandwich at 3PM on Myrtle Ave, and then robbed the deli

Everyone likes to think they know how to party

CMJ has started with a BANG

It seems like the spring has reached our beloved pigeon town prematurely; and even though it might feel confusing at times (“are we reading and baking cookies or are we partying and celebrating spring?”), it doesn’t really feel bad

Last week I wrote on the topic of self propelling motivation, being your own boss, and staying tough in the game of independent contractors

We’re hanging out in Little Skips. Subconsciously, my teeth are unrolling the edge of the plastic cup, while my eyes are stuck to Richard, who is sitting across the table, casually sipping his coffee while he describes how tiring life can get–if you have to attend 9 fashion shows in one day during Fashion Week.
