TICKETS + INFORMATION

Can this be The Event Of The Summer when it isn’t even officially Summer yet? The Event Of The Spring for sure. Music by such as 75 Dollar Bill, one of the best bands in New York or anywhere (psych, Maximalist-Postminimalist, drone, world) and Burnt Sugar The Arkestra (still mourning their founder, the great Greg Tate). Blasts from the past including Ernie Brooks (Modern Lovers et al. — and himself), Peter Zummo (Arthur Russell et al. — and himself), and Steve Shelley (Sonic Youth — and himself). And more! And food by Québécois sensation M. Wells, where I had a dinner last week (after a show by 75 Dollar Bill’s Che Chen, now that I think of it) that I have to say was, to me, beyond fabulous. See you there.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT: You’ve got everything you need right there.
