Friday, August 17. It's our first boat party ever, and it's going to be sweet! The boat is the biggest and nicest sailboat on the NYC waterways, the
Clipper City. It's a 158 ft.-long topsail schooner (no idea what that is, but it sounds rad), a "tall ship". And it holds up to 150 people on it's single, wood-floored, deck, with 360 degree unobstructed views. Top notch sound. Full bar. Video and photo projections by
Dust & Grooves. And all of us, meaning us and you. No random people stopping by to check it out. No bouncers. Just us lovers of vinyl, good music, dancing, and great vibes, in a freshtastic setting. New York Harbor on a beautiful summer night, with a breeze coming off the water.... we might get spoiled...
picture yourself and your best friends on this... but at night.
In addition to the usual all-star lineup of co-presenters, including
Wax Poetics magazine,
Turntable Lab and
Halcyon record stores, and
Fusicology; we are joined by heavy hitters,
Dust & Grooves and
Sound Liberation Front, both known for their uncompromising devotion to great music and great events. We are very pleased to have them all on board!
Because of the strict capacity regulations, the tix will very likely sell out in advance. And they cost less if you
buy in advance anyway. So we suggest you
do that. We would hate to have you come down and not be able to get on board. (how many times can i get away with the boating puns?)
so
get your tickets now so don't miss out! and let your friends (the ones you want to spend 2.5 hours on a boat with) know to get theirs now too. we trust you to bring nice people! you always do!
