Blonde Redhead, Ted Leo, Thermals & Man Man playing McCarren Pool

DOWNLOAD: Ben Gibbard (Cash Money) covering the Thermals (MP3) (MORE)

A couple of weeks ago I went to see The Thermals rock NYU....

Thermals @ NYU

JellyNYC has released this initial list of artists playing free shows at McCarren Pool in Brooklyn this summer:

Blonde Redhead, Ted Leo/Rx , The Thermals, Ghostland Obervatory, Octopus Project, Man Man, Illinois, I'm From Barcelona, Dengue Fever, and THE RUB DJs
Looking good. More bands and dates TBA. I also heard that despite talk of building a pool in the pool, concerts will be back at McCarren in 2008.

Also note: Despite the Saturday date that was announced, I'm From Barcelona are actually playing that Sunday.

This is my first summer in the city. How does ticketing work for the McCarren shows?

Posted by Benjamin | May 14, 2007 1:02 PM

Dearest Benjamin: There ain't no tickets. Just show the fuck up and rock the fuck out.

dates?

Posted by Anonymous | May 14, 2007 1:31 PM

I was all excited because BV posted something on the JellyNYC shows so I assumed dates were just released. Instead, it's the same news from two weeks ago. Blogs should be timely, most knew the lineup weeks ago.

Where did you hear that concerts will be back in 08?

Posted by Anonymous | May 14, 2007 2:53 PM

I don't think anyone knows if the concerts will be back in 08 or not. It's definitely possible, but no one knows--the parks dept generally begins accepting applications in the fall. Since the planning process for the renovations begins in July of this year, everything is up in the air. But since groundbreaking on the renovations isn't supposed to be untl 2009, it seems likely there could be shows next summer too.
