Well guys, holy [email protected], I survived Holy Ship. I mean, at least I think I did? I haven’t really settled back into the whole “reality” thing, which is why I’m typing this from a hotel bed in New Orleans, because WHY NOT? Life is for living right? And what better way to shirk responsibility and […]
Top 5 shows of the weekend
Greetings, let’s cast aside these tenebrific last few days and look to that which brings the most effulgent of feelings: the weekend. I can’t say I’m being terribly helpful at this point, given that three of the best five options are already sold out, but I don’t make the rules.
REVIEW: Wild Child Brought Warm Austin Vibes To Williamsburg
The cold snap may have still been kicking this weekend, but you couldn’t tell inside the cozy confines of Music Hall of Williamsburg where Austin based Indie Folk band Wild Child kept the crowd feeling warm and fuzzy with their endearing love songs, energetic sing-alongs and thoughtful lyrics. This rag tag bunch of southerners was […]
New Year, New Shows: January's Must See Concerts
Well, it’s officially 2015. I’m going to do the basic bitch thing and proceed to cleanse this month.

So instead of drinking, smoking, eating cheeseburgers, drinking coffee, or doing anything else that […]
INTERVIEW: Chris Malinchak
Classically trained musicians are often the first to spout their criticisms toward the rise of EDM, and the increasingly popular laptop DJ’s of today. But take five minutes to chat with a virtuoso like 26-year-old house DJ Chris Malinchak, and I guarantee that those feelings will swiftly begin to dissipate. Best known for his 2013 […]
REVIEW: Brooklyn Electronic Festival 2014
Photo: A woman prepares her dance moves for the upcoming night at Baby’s All Right on Friday, Nov. 7th. It would appear that the rhythm finally got me, as I type this review to you in bed surrounded by tissues. That said, a head cold is a small price to pay for the music-packed weekend […]

Merchandise play Music Hall of Williamsburg tonight
Having seen Tampa’s Merchandise all over Brooklyn and Manhattan, at venues as small as Home Sweet Home, 285 Kent (RIP), Saint Vitus and Glasslands, and as big as Bowery and Villain, it’s fitting they’re finding some middle ground at Music Hall of Williamsburg tonight. To my knowledge, they’ve never played the North 6th venue, and […]

Live Review: The Dandy Warhols played Music Hall of Williamsburg
There was more than a hint of nostalgia in the air when The Dandy Warhols rolled into town this weekend. As well as celebrating their 20th anniversary, the band are currently on tour promoting their first ever live album, Thirteen Tales From Urban Bohemia Live At the Wonder (listen here); which in itself celebrates the 13th anniversary of Thirteen Tales From […]
