Marco Benevento at Bowery is the spot to hit tonight. His trio is transcendent.

Time to grab a pitcher of Krusovice, some of the best kielbasa in town, and get ready for an all-day fantasmagoria of Astoria's best live bands that will BLOW your MIND.

You heard me right --
a day-long orgy of ROCK AND ROLL at Astoria's one and only BOHEMIAN HALL AND BEER GARDEN --

starting at 2pm - in the Garden
*Bliminal
*The Missing Teens
*Little Creatures
*The Jamies
*Thunderbang!

starting at 7.00p - in the Hall
*Freedomhead
*Digamy
*Illimanjaro
*Mainline Gypsy
*Bad Buka
*Rattrap Bumpkin

It's going to be the biggest and best show of the year so far. USDA approved.

ALL FOR ONLY $10
(and you'll be helping to raise funds for our summer music festival - Astoria Music Now!)

If we didn't have you at "live rock all day in the beer garden," though, then I have to ask if you're a -real- American.

Anyone go to Angel O last night for Miles Benjamin? Only to have the headline act play a 15min set* because the opening bands** went an hour+ over their time slots. bullshit.

fuck the Delancey(promoters)


*which is just Miles and a tool on the UPC/keys (where is his band?)
*including Botanica, the promoters bullshit band.

wow. glad i passed on that show. it was a little pricey too for the bands they booked.

I have lived in both Astoria and Bushwick, and the former lacks seriously in both decent bars and decent bands.
