People often say that fall is bitter sweet

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

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. When you belted out All American Rejects lyrics guilt free in the shower. When Tyson Ritter told you to move along, you jumped. For Fun. For Freedom. To […]

[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!

This past weekend (July 26- 27), Out In The Streets Festival returned to the historic Onderdonk House on Flushing Avenue in Ridgewood

We hope you aren’t tired of summer festivals yet because this one is also not to be missed!

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

Now that you’ve said your goodbyes to the Wreck Room, take a moment tomorrow at 9 PM to mourn the death of Kings County, and to celebrate the birth of Kings County Saloon

Seize the moment this weekend- the first official full weekend of summer! While some might already be in lazy vacation mode, counting down the days ’til their ticket out of the city, their are several reasons to hold back and stick around Bushwick! This weekend’s offerings not only include some incredible performance and video, but there are also some stellar exhibitions that are closing and not to be missed! As my sister likes to tell me on days that I’d rather sleep-in than venture out into the world, “carpe the shit out of your diem!”

Bushwick is now officially the place to get your one-stop-cheese-shop on in Brooklyn.

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 […]

CMJ has come and gone in a fury of five booze-fueled days

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 […]
