​​Has Memorial Day snuck up on you? I mean, 60 degree weather doesn’t help

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

If you were wondering if the concerts would ever slow down, you’d ever stop harming your eardrums and saturating your liver, and you’d find some time to actually watch TV, here’s a whisper of reality: it never ends

Dust off your Doc Martens and safety pins because things are getting pretty punk this weekend! And its the best kind: local, underground, and in venues that look like east London basements

It’s going to be 70+ degrees and sunny tomorrow, and there are ten incredible shows, raves, dance parties and festivals going down over the next three days

Turn up the lights in here, baby, extra bright y’all need to read this

Bushwick is the kind of place where love frequently blossoms into a creative partnership and vice versa

When the going gets rough, let the cocktail find you

Now that the new year is in full swing, we’re ready to get back to the normal show/DJ/DIY/party grind

What’s UP 2015, where the new fresh, new #DIY lives, where’s we wipe away Brooklyn’s 2014 losses and look only onward to where the grass is just starting to grow

You know what? I’m all out of jokes

Full disclosure: when this ramen spot opened up two blocks away from my house it got me pretty jazzed

Ask anyone who lives off the L Train and they’ll tell you they’ve payed witness to the Union Square Holiday Market or Brooklyn Flea

Thanksgiving is a time to say thanks, and we may have already shouted out 101 reasons we’re thankful we live in Bushwick, but we’d like to extend that gratitude to ALL the musicians and ALL the venues that are keeping up programming during Thanksgiving. Truly, from the bottom of our cholesterol-brimmed hearts, you RULE. Now […]

Shake it off, commands New York City’s “Global Welcome Ambassador for Tourism,” the completely manufactured Tay Swift

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

Maybe it was that ever present Bushwick vermin

Even if you’re never really trying to look your “best,” you’re most likely trying to look something if you live in Brooklyn in this day and age

It’s nearing the end of August, and dang

While in the dog days of summer it’s tempting to feel incredibly burned out by sun, booze, and an overload of summer shows, think back. Way back. To 2005 in fact.
