Happy Weekend, Freaks and Dreamers! Summer is in full swing like she means it, and the month closes out with a smorgasbord of sun, sin and sounds! The Doctor Says: hit the beach during the day, dry off, and prepare thy night moves: If you’ve still got a case of the summertime blues after knowing [...]
Friday’s Feast and Saturday’s Sins!
Ahoy, Landlubbers! It’s time to kick off your shoes and fill up your gullet and put on your clown nose and go make lots of trouble for squares, cause it’s the weekend, yeah!
Cavestomp! w/Electric Mess, M.O.T.O., Light Bulb Alley, Bamboo Kids, Mess Around, Shaw Nuff, Chris Such & the Savages@Parkside Lounge 5/11 & 5/12
After closing off a successful multi-year run five years ago with the first appearance of The Sonics in NYC, Cavestomp! returned this past weekend to a venue much closer in spirit to where the original Cavestomp! series began over 28 years ago. Rebooted as a multi-day garage music festival in 1997 by promoter and former [...]
Which Way To Destruction, Which Way to Joy?
Oh weekend, how we’ve missed you, and clearly you miss us because you give so much without taking. It’s another one of those “which way do I go, George, which way do I go???” weekends where there’s just so much quality trouble to choose from – and the weather is drop dead gorgeous to boot! [...]
Runaway Runway Weekend, or HATE Coutre
What’s up, city! The weekend is here. Call your mom! (Make sure your gin rage calms down a bit first, though!) I’d make some quip about Fashion Week but I doubt anyone (who reads this blog) cares too much. You shop at Beacon’s Closet/The Salvation Army/The Dumpster outside C-Town, and let’s be real, YOUR idea [...]
A Helping Hand For The Good Guy
As most of you have probably already heard, our town’s own DJ extraordinaire and nightlife mainstay Jonathan Toubin was the victim of an absolute freak accident, having been seriously injured when an out of control taxi cab plowed through the wall of the hotel he was staying in in Portland OR where he was on [...]
Ghouls to the Left of Me, Rippers to the Right
What’s up, Jekyll! That ghastly pallor of yours could probably be attributed to your vices and/or your lack of sleep this past week, or it could be that it’s that magical time of the year we like to call HALLOWEEN! When it falls on a weekend (or this year, JUST outside of one) you’d best [...]
See My Friends
Hey Sex Pants! It’s your boy Heartlock, and I’ve got the midweek roundup of all the cool happenings for the soul rockers of the scene! Seems like summer FINALLY decided to end and it’s looking like a FINE day to trespass in a cemetery. Short of that: become a creature of the night in the [...]
Memoirs from the Panic Room
Why HELLO! And welcome to the weekend! Anything disastrous going on? Anything? Of course not, you spineless troglodytes! Allow me to present you with the choice happenings for the rockers, rollers and strollers with nary an earthquake nor hurricane quip or pun. Seriously, enough with the Armageddon talk, already. Wake me when the real [...]
Your Big Fat Overstuffed Hyper Sexy Rock and Roll Weekender
I don’t know how we got to the last week of June already, but…just look at this…look how much is going down just tonight. There’s so much going on that a lesser (wo)man could hurt themselves if they got too ambitious. Hope you’ve taken your vitamins. Let’s not waste any time… Friday June 24th The [...]
