Counting down to the weekend can be brutal… but not when you live in Brooklyn, surrounded by vibrant youth (and lots of booze)… the party starts on Thursday! Here are your top 6 options for music this weekend, starting NOW! #6 Aputumpu Festival / Saul Wiliams, Osekre & The Lucky Bastards, Patrice, more @ Le Poisson […]

It’s labor day weekend– which is frightening, also exciting

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. 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 […]

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

Sh-sh-shaking, I’m

The sun is out and you should be too this Saturday, June 21st, for an amazing FREE one-day festival called Make Music New York

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 […]

Spring has sprung, and like in the movie Shawshank Redemption, we are free (and doused by a lot of rain this week)! Let’s make the most of it. There are a myriad of places to keep you in budget, buzzed, and get that little cardio going to help with the winter bulge. Here are you top […]

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

Get ready, because this weekend is about to get fabulous! We have 10 ass-kicking shows for you to choose from for an enhanced musical weekend experience

So, it’s V-Day weekend

2014 is the Year of the Horse according to the Chinese Calendar, so let’s giddy up over to some epic shows that you can tell your children about. Hell, you might even be able to tell your kid about that crazy February night in cold ass Brooklyn when he or she was first conceived. Or, […]

Trying to find ways to keep warm this weekend? How ’bout hitting up some sweet shows and having a really hard time choosing which ones? Will you try to squeeze in and finally see Macaulay Culkin’s Pizza themed Velvet Underground cover band (The Pizza Underground) for free on Friday? Or perhaps you wanna get sweaty […]
