The final House of Vans show with Interpol, Gang Gang Dance and Honduras

Alas, tonight is the final concert at Greenpoint’s House of Vans. We’re going to miss the concert series but they are going out with a bang with headliner Interpol. RSVP is closed, but if you have a pass make sure you get their early since admittance is not guaranteed. Interpol just released a new video […]

Top 5 shows of the weekend

Happy August everyone, which apparently translates to happy scattered thunderstorm forecast week. Let’s hope that proves to be inaccurate because most of the recommendations this weekend are outdoors or have outdoor spaces, so we could well be in for a miserable ride. Alas, see you at the bar…

Top 5 shows of the weekend

Apologies for the brief break, the World Cup really proved to be far too exciting. Though speaking of breaks, I’m actually in Edinburgh to see my first favourite band this weekend, but for those of you still in our own great city, here are the best options!

We’re well into free-summer-shows season, and they make up three of your options below, so after you’ve finished watching some World Cup matches or eaten some nachos (why not both?), you’ve got some great options. Perhaps Germany’s players wanted to skip the rest of the tournament in favour of one of the below…

Club Crush: The Week’s Best Electronic Lineups

I’m not going to pretend like it’s been all flowers and rainbows over here. The loss of Anthony Bourdain last week came as quite a blow. As fellow food loving New Yorkers, we’ll truly miss his unique flair for storytelling and his boundless zest for exploring lesser known parts of the world in search of […]

Brooklyn House of Vans is closing next year

Brooklyn House of Vans is closing next year

At least Market Hotel and Elsewhere are now open, but this definitely sucks: It’s bittersweet to share that 2018 will be Vans’ last year at our House of Vans Brooklyn location. When we opened doors of the Greenpoint warehouse seven years ago, we never imagined House of Vans would be so well received by the […]

Dave Chappelle partied at House of Vans last night

Last night Dave Chappelle hosted the party at House of Vans.

The heavy lifting was done by Stretch Armstrong, D-Nice and DJ Trauma who kept the crown dancing with rap […]
