Yo I'm planning to be at that Siren Festival, Mates of State happy times! And Q and Not U is playing a free show in town too, double Q and Not U, double the fun!

And I've never been to Coney Island and don't have a place to stay just yet, hmm.....this is some good preplanning

i can't seem to find that thread about NYC dj nights ... looking for mainstream indie pop/rock/hip-hop a la liberation dance party ... any ideas?

i was going on tour with Dinosaur Jr for the week and go from Philly to NYC to Montreal to Toronto, but cancelled, and now i am just going to Siren. but we are just driving up early and going home afterwards.  no hotel.  its not such a bad drive, especially on the way home.
 
   4 hours tops.     just a suggestion.

I agree with Sonick.  
 
 (and Relaxer voted Sleater-Kinney the best album of the year-to-date -- WTF is going on here!?!?  It's like some kind of sick bizarro forum)
