Amazing that the best shows are actually in South Brooklyn tonight at Southpaw, Union Hall, and the Bell House, but no mention from BROOKLYN vegan. Almost hilarious, wouldn't you say?

I understand that the term "south brooklyn" might be confusing for you since you just got here from the Midwest along with the other transient tourist transplants, but you should look up with it means.

South Brooklyn is the Gowanus Canal area, loosely. Park Slope, Carrol Gardens etc...

Posted by anonymous | October 22, 2009 9:31 PM

For the guy that just got here, south brooklyn is for really pretentious dumbfucks who like eugene mirman

South Brooklyn debaters refer to a map of Brooklyn, I think most of you would do poorly on a geography quiz. just saying.

South Brooklyn is a region or composite neighborhood in the New York City borough of Brooklyn, encompassing areas of Carroll Gardens, Cobble Hill, Red Hook, Gowanus, Park Slope, and Boerum Hill. Thus it is roughly encompassed by Brooklyn Community Board 6, which in turn approximates the southern half of the 18th century Town of Brooklyn. The portion of the IND Culver Line that runs along Smith Street in South Brooklyn was originally known as the South Brooklyn Line. The New York City Police Department's 76th Precinct on Union Street serves South Brooklyn.

It is named for its location, south of the original City of Brooklyn. In the early 19th century all the area south of Atlantic Street, now Atlantic Avenue, was farmland and called Red Hook, and the portion south of the later Hamilton Avenue, now a southern part of the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway, was Red Hook Point[1]. The part of the township south of Atlantic Street was annexed as southern part of the City in the middle 19th century, and is northwest of the center of the much larger modern borough. The somewhat historic name of South Brookyn has been revived in recent years to foster a closer connection among the constituent communities, though the name has always been popular nomenclature for the neighborhood's locals. The revived term was less often applied to Park Slope and Sunset Park, which had come to regard themselves as distinct. Since the early 50's, some kids growing up in the areas that make up South Brooklyn have affiliated under the name South Brooklyn Boys.[2]

This hilly area is not to be confused with the actual flat southern region of the modern borough of Brooklyn, usually called "southern Brooklyn" or "the southern tier", which spans the neighborhoods of Sheepshead Bay and Coney Island, for example.

And you my friend are a idiot who maybe has dual residency or your a transplant also but think you know jack because you lived here five years and now your a New Yorker. Yeah! South Williamsburg and areas around there is not south Brooklyn.

10:21 was correct.

Brooklyn and queens are on an island seperate from Manhattan. They are both part of Long Island, geographically speaking.

If you really want to piss off a "Brooklynite," call them a long islander.

@ Delancey - Bear Hands killed it, Delorean weren't bad, XX were decent and Antlers were boring as shit.

I know, 10:01. Everyone should have the opportunity to learn lessons like, "I want to 'throw' a brick 'through' your idiot face"

Did they play I Quit Girls?

Posted by Anonymous | October 23, 2009 11:07 AM

First off if you quote wikipedia you are a dumb shit. Second when you say south brooklyn it is not about the neighborhoods. This term refers to downtown Brooklyn i.e. Seat of Kings county,borough hall,main post office,criminal court and buraucracies in genral.

Posted by Anonymous | October 23, 2009 12:01 PM

But more importantly, did Japanadroids play I Quit Girls last night?

I'm gussing Japandroids played the same set they've been playing in NYC for the last 6 months. Yay. Oh, is that a McCluskey cover? What a treat! Fart.

deer tick a snoozefest? more like pornfest. johnny deertick got pissed at an earlier band for not launching Air Force Porn from the balcony, then he cracked like 8 beers with his teeth, almost had an emotional breakdown during a solo encore, and whippped out his dick and rubbed it against his guitar strings. you snoozed through that?

Posted by Anonymous | October 23, 2009 2:32 PM

to be completely honest 2:32, he came on so late, after about 8 songs, i left... so i missed the 'dick on the guitar strings' thing. damn, i guess i should've stuck it out for another hour to see that!

Posted by Anonymous | October 23, 2009 5:43 PM

dick on guitar strings? who gives a shit about adolescent antics. just grow up and play some good songs.
