So how’s everyone’s sanity and livers holding up? CMJ week is in it’s final throes, and whether you think it’s bullshit or whether you crowded into a packed room to see your favorite band or attended any one of dozens of “anti” parties - it doesn’t matter because it’s bigger than you! Like Christianity [...]
FALL IN
A crisp chill in the air…a leather jacket zipped just to the chin…the strappy sandal replaced with the leather boot…the switch from mojitos to bourbon…can you feel it? FALL is IN, you mothers! And as predictable as magical ponies leaping to their deaths from a rocky New England cliff on the blood harvest moon, rock [...]
Mermaids Are Like Totally The New Unicorns
Glub Glub Glub, my fishies! It’s Mermaid Parade weekend! One of my favorite weekends in New York City, as it’s yet ANOTHER excuse to dress up like a lunatic and not have anyone look at you all funny. For all it’s grit and grime Coney Island is still a beautiful, severely rock and roll place [...]
Apocalypse WOW
It’s old news now that according to some moonbat Christian doomsdayers, THIS IS THE LAST WEEK OF YOUR LIFE. Of LIFE IN GENERAL. Judgement! The world will end on Saturday the 21st. If there’s any incentive to go out and raise a ruckus of apocalyptic proportions, THIS IS IT. Not that YOU ever needed any excuses to freak out, but here’s your free pass. I’d discourage mass looting and window smashing, though: I don’t think the fuzz are hip to this…
One For You, Nineteen For Me
Happy Tax Day, New York City and the Greater Metropolitan Area! George Harrison smiles down upon you from his place in Heaven in disgust as he listens to his timeless guitar solo being played on 1010 WINS News Radio 20 thousand fucking times today! Yes, your devalued American dollars are going towards dropping bombs in the third world…not much you can do about that besides taking that refund check and BLOWING IT on FUN. Your life will outlast your money, guaranteed. So… lets do it!
Have You Ever Danced With a Satyr in the Pale Neon Light?
AWOOOOOOOGA! It’s officially the first all the way through nice weekend in this god forsaken city! So you know what that means: STRIP NAKED AND RUN WILD IN THE STREETS INCITING TERROR! With flowers in your hair, of course…
Popsicles and Icicles
What’s the word, Snowbunnies and Sasquatches!? Another weekend filled with ways to warm yer cockles and and show the plebes how to look good bundled up (work it!) presents itself for our amusement and mutually assured destruction! Shall we? Lets.
Le Weekender
There are weekends and there are weekenders. These are the kinds of nights that all true warriors strive for. These are the nights we throw in the faces of haters and fakers who dare to tell you rock and roll, nay, that even FUN itself, is dead in New York City.
My very professional reviews of Smashed! Blocked! and Rebel Night
Here are GaragePunkNYC.com we would like to think that we’re more than just an event calendar. For the most part, we’re not. However a couple of times a year one of the writers sobers up and then has something intelligent to say. Obviously that rules out Charles on both counts, but it does happen. Today [...]
BIRTHDAY CHILLEN’
Seems like it’s been everyone’s birthday in the last 10 days or so, and it doesn’t stop today. Our very own Charles Gaskins, off in Montreal for the Wooly Weekend festival, is celebrating today and yours truly will be on Saturday night at midnight! (More details on that in a moment). Thankfully it’s a weekend [...]
