BrooklynVegan presents Fuck The Facts, Attake, Magrudergrind, Defeatist @ Cake Shop (Early Show)

Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings will be backed by the Bushwick Philharmonic in Prospect Park tonight....

the Bushwick Phil, which started as a growing string section that recorded on all of the SJDK albums and was only a Duo on 'Dap-Dippin', a Trio on 'Naturally', a Quartet on '100 Days' and a Sextet on 'I Learned the Hard Way'. For this epochal moment in the great Brooklyn soul revival, the line-up will expand to include Timpani, Vibes, the String Quartet and Victor Axelrod (Ticklah, Antibalas) on Piano.

This show will also serve as the record release party for the hard-hitting Budos Band, who will be release their new album (Budos Band III) right after the show.

The Honeydripper, a crucial member to the illustrious Daptone DJ roster, brings the 45 heat with a mix of world class Soul, Funk, and Latin that been proven to fill even the most discriminating dance floors. Bring your dancing shoes and a change of clothes, because this classy lady means business.

shouldn't that local natives show be free? they're hardly big enough to warrant a paid show at governors island, even if it is $10. bet it's going to be pretty empty.

sharon jones was insane, budos band was amazing, but i have NEVER seen so many people in Prospect Park, it was unreal, couldn't even try to get into the bandshell, but still sounded phenomenal from outside!

Posted by Anonymous | August 8, 2010 7:51 AM

Sharon Jones was great as always, but they are doing the some routines for years now. Wished they lost some of the variety act aspects and became more loose.

Posted by Anonymous | August 8, 2010 8:42 AM

i think you need to see a doctor, 8:42. that stick up your ass seriously needs removal.

Posted by Anonymous | August 8, 2010 9:30 AM

if you think that was a lot of people you shoulda been there when the Roots played.

What time you think cut copy hit the stage in billyburg?

Posted by Anonymous | August 8, 2010 10:47 AM

Ditto the Cut Copy set time inquiry.

I haven't been to the pool parties since they moved to the park. What time should one plan on getting there (if they're only really interested in seeing Cut Copy)? Are there still crazy-ass lines for these things?

Posted by M | August 8, 2010 11:11 AM

Cut Copy is pretty dull on record, do people dance at their live show?

Posted by Anonymous | August 8, 2010 1:09 PM

Sharon Jones played so many new songs from her new record that come out a couple of months ago. Seems to me like a new "routine" to me. You are seriously incredibly lame if you could not enjoy the concert at Prospect Park. Such raw talent deserves way more praise than she gets.

Posted by Anonymous | August 8, 2010 1:27 PM

cut copy was awesome. anyone go to shea stadium? that looked like a fun one

Posted by Anonymous | August 9, 2010 11:38 AM

When you are in the corner and have no money to go out from that, you would require to take the loan. Because that will help you emphatically. I take auto loan every year and feel myself fine because of it.
