BrooklynVegan is returning to Pianos on the Lower East Side of Manhattan this year for another free 2-floor day show during CMJ. The date is Thursday October 23rd. The times are noon to 5:30 PM. The initial lineup is Peasant (an encore BV Pianos performance), Pwrfl POWER, Merge Records' Wye Oak, the one and only Phosphorescent, The Muslims, Crystal Antlers, Friendly Fires, and as someone figured out, Sebastien Grainger (check out our interview with the ex-DFA1979er) (his official showcase is at Mercury Lounge). As always, this party is 100% free. Full lineup and schedule TBA very soon!
Not free: the Tuesday night BV showcase at Music Hall of Williamsburg.
Also free: another BrooklynVegan day party. Announcement coming soon!

Yay! As dismal as this year's CMJ is, a huge THANK YOU to BV for redeeming it by
A) creating better line-ups across the board by consolidating artists I would have to go to separate CMJ shows just to see one band (i.e. wye oak, friendly fires and sebastien grainger)
B) making your showcases during the day so that we can see said artists more than once if desired and it also makes our even concert decisions/balancing much easier
...AND most importantly
C) it's free, thus saving a lot of money i would have spent on 3 separate shows just to see said bands mentioned above. Thanks! Now all you have to do is add shugo to your 3rd bv show (and maybe emmy the great again!)
if CMJ keeps deteriorating as it has, BV's gonna take it all over and create something massively bigger and better. many thanks for redeeming an unexciting CMJ.

Awesome! Love the BV CMJ shows @ Pianos and this lineup looks fantastic. Can you at least announce the day of the other day party in case some of us need to take off work?
