We'll have some video from that soon, but for now - from our 8th show that took place this summer, check out Takka Takka. They play Central Park tonight with Clap Your Hands Say Yeah. So if you like music, nature and beautiful days - head up there.

THEATER: If you want to avoid the first, hottest days of Fringe fever, a quieter alternative would be Mary Gage's Evensong, which she wrote after interviewing 6 senior citizens in Michigan. Using a sort of jazz composition style, with solos and chorus, Gage weaves their very different tales and bits of life wisdom together into one coherent thread that affirms how much their generation struggled on behalf of this country, motivated by a belief in it that would be smarmy if it weren't quite real.
Movable Hype 8.0ver (and 9.0 Info)
Thanks to everyone for coming out to our show last night. We had a great time and enjoyed bringing the focus back on New York bands, something we'll most likely continue to do in the future.

Gothamist Band Interview: Takka Takka
We heard of Takka Takka way before this guy in the back...okay, that may not be true. We've been fans for a little while now though (they're way better than this Roy Lichtenstein painting) and after checking out their live show we knew we had to book them for our next Movable Hype.
Movable Hype 8.0
Movable Hype 8.0 is coming up next Tuesday July 11th! We're starting to book this as more of a New York bands showcase. We've brought down a Canadian band we love for this one though (if Philly is the 6th, can we make Canada the 7th borough?) Here are the details for next week:
Movable Hype 8.0 is SOON
Movable Hype 8.0 is just around the corner. We've been rethinking how to book these shows. All New York bands? All smaller bands, and more of them? Combination of both? Or keep it at 3 supporters and one headliner. While we think about it, here are the details we have so far for this next one:
