Do These Bands Fux Live?

Secret Planet

Alphabet City

January 11th, 2024

So not sure what APAP stands for, but if its awesome poppin' authentic pulsations, id have to agree. We arriba'd our way through 4 incredible bands (Top-Left, CW: Yeison Landero, Chicha Libre, Miramar, Crema Paraiso) leaving us with nothing but hapless grins and some sweet vinyls to spin 🪗🎸🥁🪕

APAP Showcase

Water From Your Eyes

Alphabet City

December 31st, 2024

What better way to kiss goodbye to a year of 50+ shows across the country than one final blowout for the ages at NYC's new pop up high school auditorium club? When even the cover band is making you feel it ya know it's something special, though WFYE not going on until the 32nd was a bit of a disappointment, 2024/2025 auld lang sighs.

First time at the $35/table Zinc Jazz Bar, but when Mama's in town gotta show her a good time. Well a good time we had bouncing along to Tosca's Cuban groove for all of an hour, proving once again Jazz must be live to jive to Take 4.25/5

Greenpoint

I guess that's why they call it a rap show. Also plugged his vodka ("we're workin'") but due to poor brand integration I cant figure out what it was. 4/5

Warsaw

Billy Woods

Pond

Cant go to the great Northeast without checking out one of the Reinier City's hot venues filled with equally hot co-eds. Fazerdaze was there to amaze but only had time for a 30 minute 2.75/3 hypnotic displayz, while Pond was playing 4.25/5 raucus performance to an exactly appropriately sized crowd.

Second time, long time, but well worth the weight. After years of wondering when the wonders from Canada would come and they did not disappoint. I watched from the front to the back being equally enthralled by their 4/4.5 performance. Tokyo Police Club screwed up the lineup and went on after 1.5/2

Uh oh look out, woman singing and drumming. Crowd moving. What do I do??? 4.5/5 Charlie

Celeste Krishna

Sunset Park

November 9th, 2024

Appears to be Ms. (I hope) Krishna's first flight across the pond in quite some time to a quiet little spot for those who know where to find it. A little cramped, a little low-key, a little bit moving. 2.5/3 since I had to keep leaving to make room for the other guests.

Freddy's Backroom

Opener

IAN SWEET

Williamsburg

October 31st, 2024

After years of anticipation and one failed DJ set, I couldn't believe I found myself in front of Ms. (I hope) Sweet on the most ghoulish night of the year. Well ghoul out she did, but I cant giver her higher than 4/5 since she didn't play All Skaters Go To Heaven.

Baby's Alright

Opener

Grace Ives, Nation of

Navy Yard

October 26th, 2024

Not bad considering 2 hours before I didnt even know this cert' was taking place. Almost a quadruple header if I had come for Psymon Spine, but this felt about as close to Woodstock as anything in 45/50 years. Plus the whole thing was powered by the ☀️ and the people
