$5.00 off tix & weekly free blogs shows @ KNITTING FACTORY (tonight = David Bruno & Adam Kesher)
NYC concert venuue Knitting Factory is running a special right now - $5.00 off your concert ticket if you buy your tickets via text message.
That seems like a pretty good deal to me, but not even necessary if you want to stop by the first installment of "Blogger's Delight" tonight (Mon Sept 10, 2007) - that's because it's free....
Blogger's Delight is a free party every Monday in the Tap Bar of the Knitting Factory. Each party, a new blog curates the night and invites bands and DJs they love to play. Get ready to get psyched!That's right - it's free. And who is curating the very first Blogger's Delight tonight? Well, it's none other than Slap You in Public's David Bruno (aka DJ David Bruno aka BrooklynVegan dance writer extrordonaire). The band he has playing are from France, and their name is Adam Kesher. Read an interview with them over at David's site (where you'll also find the flyer for this show).
And, if you're looking for something to save $5.00 on, might I suggest Yo Majesty on September 27th, or how about Circle and Oneida on September 22nd.

The Knit has been one of the best venues in NYC for more than 2 decades. You can see punk on one night, followed by jazz, pop, experimental, etc. The staff has always been cool, the beer selection rocks, the new sound system is state of the art, there are 3 floors...What can you possibly NOT like about Knitting Factory.
Let me see, at the Knit I've seen Lou Reed (twice), David Byrne, Robyn Hitchcock (multiple times), Matthew Shipp, David Murray, Flecktones, Mike Watt, Ken Nordine, Jonathan Richman (many times), Meat Puppets, Graham Parker, moe., Pernice Brothers, Holy Modal Rounders, Gary Lucas, Stamey & Holsapple, and that's just off the top of my head.
They are in absolutely no danger of going out of business. If you can't appreciate this venue, then really, where do you see music?
