SKYPE Concert (THURS) + Slingshot Dakota (FRI) @ (…)barn

Slingshot Dakota Kickoff Poster

Slingshot Dakota (who I made friends with at a really last minute show at DBA a ‘lil while back) is having their tour kickoff in my living room this Friday, along with friends Street Smart Cyclist (this’ll be their LAST Brooklyn show), and Small Arms Dealer. It’s gonna be a really fun pop punk kind of show, and the sort you wear skintight bike shorts to, and neon colors, and a permanent grin.

You’re probably also wondering what a SKYPE concert is. There’s a live performance in the room, but the singer of the band lives in Japan and streams herself into the set through a webcam far, far away. This was supposed to be at Monkeytown or somewhere like that, but everyone in Brooklyn double-books…

(I’ve gotten bored of band write-ups… we’re living in a visual society now! All photos (mostly) dragged out of Flickr. If you like a photo, say hi to the person who took it!)

We dream of un-confiscated forties, shit-cheap liquor off a plywood bar, smoking inside, bands in the backyard, in the basement, in the bathtub. Out of necessity, we do shows at venues that are pretty lenient by New York standards, but in a perfect world every show would happen at home (in this city of eternal roommates). To get to the nitty-gritty, if you have a space, and think music forcefully shoved inside might work for us both, drop us an email. We can use all shapes and sizes, from pretty little alleyways or back porches for an acoustic kind of good time, or an industrial-looking basement for around 100 kids to spazz the fuck out in…
