How many neo-soul fans were able to catch both the earlier Fitz & the Tantrums/Lee Fields show in Central Park and this one later all the way in Park Slope? How many afrobeat fans caught Superhuman Happiness in Prospect Park on Saturday and are continuing the weekend with Zongo Junction and Turkuaz @ Brooklyn Bowl tonight?

London Souls rocked the house! I like Cream, I like Jimi!
The MEHvy, on the other hand, well they need to fucking stop talking and play some funky music. Too much yacking, too little ass shaking.
I'll go see London Souls again

Superhuman Happiness brought the...well...Superhuman Happiness. totally positive vibrations as their name implies. Bits and pieces of old stuff but doing something fresh with it all.

The London Souls are amazing.

We saw The Heavy open up for Sharon Jones...quite simply one of the worst bands I have ever seen.

A hummus pic break in the middle of the set brings me superhuman hummusness!

Superhuman Happiness was incredible. The London Souls rocked. The Heavy were lame.

Yeah, duh...I'm cultivating some hummus trees right next to my kettle corn plants in my apartment. Shhh don't tell law enforcement.

$5.00 is a little pricey for a side of hummus... Did it come with any fancy blend-ins?

Anyone else notice just how shitty that food smelled from downwind? I don't know what they were boiling in there, but it smelled like a mixture of compost, sweaty feet, and rotten milk. I went in hungry, psyched for some food, but I just couldn't eat that shit. WTF?!?!
