Gothamist Did CMJ
Of course, we also had our own show last week at the Bell House, which featured sets from Freelance Whales, Henry Wolfe, Robbers On High Street, Hawk And Dove, Small Black, Uninhabitable Mansions and Pomegranates. Thanks so much to the lovely people at the Bell House, all of the bands, as well as Triple 8 Vodka, Asia Dogs, DJ Jen! (theMusicSlut.com) and DJ Doppler (Brett Tieman of The Mugs). And if you see our banner anywhere, please let us know!

Hey i was at that show...
I'm not saying that the Brooklyn Bowl show was the coolest thing ever, or the fact that most people try not to party into the night on a Thursday night...it wasn't as bad a night as the reviewer suggests...Here are some mitigating points:
1. this is Williamsburg and, for all intents and purposes, charges a minimum to Manhattan prices (it wasn't $9 beer night, just $6.50...)
2. It's a new venue that has a pretty extensive beer list
3. YACHT was pretty great and all the people who waited were given a pretty exciting show
I think the Brooklyn Bowl was the showcase moreso than the bands...at a music festival no less...go figure...
I've tried to see YACHT 3 times and every single time they played 3+ hours later than advertised. What the fuck?
The Protomen Saturday night at the Webster Hall Studio were AMAZING.
No no look it's spelled YACHT but it's actually pronounced THROATWARBLER MANGROVE.
If the bands at the Living Room used amplifiers, I hope the kiddies had hearing protection. I don't see any in Olivia's right ear.
From the linked interview: How do the bands change their shows for the young ears? We encourage the bands to play their songs as they normally would. We work with the venues to carefully monitor volume.
