Editorial Review

People looking for that old fashioned (like, 2003) Williamsburg experience could do worse than seeing a show at this DIY performance space next to Glasslands Gallery. Buzzy bands play here to catch the eye of wandering A&R guys before booking the big money across the river. Cheap drinks, folding chairs, and sexy young rockers fill the warehouse space, which hosts bands booked by indie elder statesman Todd P, including Class Actress, Pictureplane, Iceage, and others you'd know about if you were cooler. Drinks are cheap, but pregame anyway to cope with the crowds.
