You know what? I’m all out of jokes

[contextly_auto_sidebar id=”w6h9DVawY43A1VqlWd6iCzfgzcls5oB5″] it’sover The next two weeks are pretty much my favorite time to be in the city. Everyone’s on vacation, tourists are concentrated into a couple of areas that I never go to anyway, and I can usually get a seat on the subway in the morning! August is also the time when Bushwick […]

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

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

If you’re like us, you want the weekend to arrive promptly and loudly. Lucky for you, we know where all the parties are at! Check out the top 10 concerts we’ve rounded up this weekend, including a free “barn burner,” a Bangon! Party, Hardcore Fest at The Knockdown center, a Sunday night chillout show, and […]

The weekend may be looking thunderstorm-laden, but that means nothing for dedicated show-goers but an excuse to your golashes and fill up on Dark’n’stormies (we recommend Tandem’s). Then hit the wet pavement and bask in some light rain on your way to one of these amazing 9 top concerts of the weekend. We’ve got festivals, free shows, “art spaces” 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. […]

Take a look around, Bushwick

From celebrating Passover to remembering that’s it’s Easter to rejoicing that spring has finally arrived and then having snow /hail/sleet in the middle of the week, we all need a little break this weekend. Luck for us, it’s the most important holiday of all: 4/20. And let’s not forget Record Store Day precedes it groovily […]

Are you PUMPED that it’s finally getting warm? Yeah, maybe it’s a little rainy, but that’s all part of spring on the upswing. What better way to rally in the gorgeous weather than to rock out at some rad shows?! We’ve crafted a list featuring a couple really great free concerts balanced out by some slightly […]

Everything seems to be going full speed in life lately. The days are longer, but they go by faster and there’s more to be done. Ferris Bueller said it right when he quipped, “Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.” So, taking heed […]

  We know what you are thinking. It’s SXSW week and Brooklyn is going to be dead because all the good bands will be gone. FALSE. Some bands are coming here! And others are staying here because Brooklyn is also awesome! Don’t get down and out about it, there are plenty of DIY venues to […]

So, the Olympics are over, with the USA ranking 4th in over all medals, but first in Gold medal pranks with another gem from Jimmy Kimmel

So, it’s V-Day weekend

Most of us feverishly love or dull-heartedly dread Valentine’s Day

Didn’t win a Grammy this week? Yeah, neither did we– unfortunately, we can’t all be Macklemore

Going home for the Holidays always seems like a good idea

This week’s Friday First features local band The Echo Friendly, who just put out their heartwrenching single, “Panic

Haven’t left for the holidays yet? Staying in town for the strangely warm holiday week ahead? Thank goodness! There’s a long list of great shows to choose from this weekend

This Saturday in Bushwick, Brooklyn record label The End Records hosted a show curated by Glad Tidings From New York and Tell All Your Friends publicist and birthday boy, Kevin Davis

Ok, maybe the title of this post is a bit deceiving as it’s not technically Halloween this weekend. But, when a holiday falls on a measley Thursday night, what are you to do?! Celebrate the weekend before AND the weekend after, of course! This year our calendars are full of pre-Halloween parties, especially on Saturday […]

It’s pretty much felt like fall ever since we pulled those jackets out from the back of our closets sometime in mid-August

Wipe your glasses clean of that foggy rain, slip on a raincoat, grab a friend and carve your way to these shows this weekend

It’s always difficult to decide on the best 5-10 shows to feature for our weekly recommended shows column

Everyone likes to think they know how to party

They met on Craigslist. Now, they’re working on album number two.

Ex-CBS and Fuse producer says he now runs the only private-room karaoke bar in his corner of Brooklyn

A bit of jazz meets a bit of Bushwick-grunge charm, at the former home of the vegan cafe Brooklyn Whiskers.
