Sweet band (I’ve never heard)
—> David Dondero & The Entire State Of Florida
Sweet space (I haven’t been to yet)
—> The Yippie Museum
Sweet festival idea
—> NOT-BROOKLYN FEST (heh)
These are just shows I’m planning on going to (or would like to, but can’t) because the bands are awesome, or are my friends, or both!
I’m throwing promoter […]

…excitement + awesome-ness overshadowed by pure mental + physical exhaustion…

“The scars of SXSW have begun to heal back into a manageable, dull ache.”

 
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…
