You know that feeling you get on a Saturday night when you can’t remember if your dating profile password was “getmeoutofhere” or “miserableloneliness” and your bottle of Malbec is at its last drop? It’s the sort of feeling that makes you wish dating was less tragic and more entertaining? Well,

Hi Bushbabies,

At CMJ, camaraderie is contagious

Forget zombies and vampires this Halloween, these so-called living dead are walking contradictions

UPDATE: Update! Rubulad will NOT be held at Ridgewood’s Gottscheer Hall

Do as we say and you’ll have a great weekend, full of unexpected performances at no or little damage to your wallet

Whew, what a whirlwind summer! For those of you who managed to escape the concrete clutches of the city for a few months, the neighborhood might seem a little different now. There’s about a bazillion new places to get sloshed, and most of them serve food, too. Unfortunately, this summer also saw the demise of […]

Last week’s openings got us all hot and bothered, literally. Summer weather came back just as it was expected to end—and it’s due to the Bushwick art scene heating up (so it’s not just global warming, guys).  From Valentine Gallery to Schema Projects and onto Outlet, as the temperature gets ready to fall, the suart heats […]

Underneath the Eiffel Tower, you can buy a can of true Paris air, just in case you ever needed a quick fix of the most romantic city in the world

It keeps eternal whisperings around     Desolate shores, and with its mighty swell     Gluts twice ten thousand Caverns, till the spell Of Hecate leaves them their old shadowy sound

As the Bushwick art scene rocks on with the summer tide, the current set suffuses beyond the industrial landscape and joins our neighbors across the H2O to the east. The Lower East side, vibing from the edge of the East Village to the corners of Chinatown, is a neighborhood we all know for its vibrant […]

Summer in NYC means a whole lot of free concerts, and one of the highlights of this writer’s year- 4knots Festival

Meryl Meisler’s ‘A Tale of Two Cities: Disco Era Bushwick’ (Image courtesy of Meryl Meisler) At the end of a very festive and blissfully summery weekend the folks at Bizarre were ready to celebrate the end of Bushwick Open Studios with as many bangs as possible. Madame Vivien V hosted a hilarious and vivacious set of lip-synching performances to the hoots […]

Each week Bushwick Daily brings you a new Artist FlashCard introducing an amazing artist living/working/showing in Bushwick who you need to know. Featuring both new and old faces, our goal is to encourage the growth of art scene and to appreciate wonderful talent in our hood!

To the many Brooklyn couples who have seen their dreams of a dream wedding shattered by the untimely financial ruin of ReBar, 1 Knickerbocker offers some hope

This week’s Listening Party features the genre-bending sounds of Cass McCombs and his upcoming show next Thursday at Music Hall of Williamsburg

[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. […]

Today we premiere a brand new song and video from NYC’s own alternative rock band Cosmonaut! They kick off an April residency at Piano’s on April 8th

[contextly_auto_sidebar id=”OeUVcJ7UtpPg8O8mzhN8sxDR75EoBT93″] Avital Burg, Cardboard Castle (courtesy of Slag Gallery) A sense of recognition draws you to the canvas. Something you’re visually unaware of makes you feel comfortable, the way you’re not quite aware that the subtle smell of cinnamon in a cafe is reminding you of home. You’ve never felt a strong connection to […]

We at Bushwick Daily are total romantics and proudly celebrate Valentine’s Day

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

Valentine’s Day gifts are so obnoxious to shop for

Last Friday night, new restaurant 1 Knickerbocker celebrated its official opening night with a party

You’ve felt it coming for a while

The new year has started, we’ve all made delusional (or realistic) resolutions to ourselves that will most likely be broken within the next couple of months

 Dr

Stepping into new Bushwick restaurant 1 Knickerbocker feels a little like that part at the very end of the Titanic when Rose imagines it becoming un-sunk, and her and Jack walk elegantly down the big staircase, and everyone smiles and claps and is beautiful

Okay, let’s be real: Bushwick Daily has officially been crushing on Paul Rome for years now

Face it, winter is here, Ned Stark tried to warn us but we inevitably find ourselves in the same place every year

A quick poll among the cool chicks of Bushwick Daily shows that we’re all big suckers for urban ice skating

At the risk of beating a dead horse here, I thought it would be fun and interesting to do a follow-up to the awesome story my colleagues did on five places to get laid in Bushwick

While some may be fearful of things that go bump in the night, we, the residents of Bushwick, know that oftentimes the best things happen after dark

The Bushwick art scene has been atwitter lately with more people than ever coming to the neighborhood to see what the hype is about
