Can't decide which I liked better; LCD Soundsystem bouncing around the boroughs, Dinosaur Jr's weeklong stop at Williamsburg Music Hall or Yo La Tengo's Hanukkah shows at Bowery Ballroom. The guests made it amazing.

I’ve probably been to 6 or 7 shows here in the year since I’ve moved to NYC.
Their booking is stellar (outside of the all the metal). Particularly, I like getting to see groups that would be opening for bigger artists in much larger venues. Lot of NY based artists will also l throw release shows there like Chanel Beads, This is Lorelei, and Hotline TNT.
There is good outside space and bar space for hanging out between sets. It’s also pretty close to the L and buses back to Bed Stuy.

Intimate but with a beautiful interior. I’m also a little biased because I saw IDLES here and it was a magical show. Webster hall also holds a special place in my heart for being my first NYC concert and being surprisingly easy to get to. For a seated show I love Kings. Honestly I don’t like Brooklyn steel because every time I go I feel like the lights are somehow directly in my eye

"Sad songs about happy things" (the first time, as a kid, I can recall the sweet/sour combo of melodies that could make you cry attached to songs about endless, bottomless love)
I've long since lost track of how many weddings and funerals I've attended that have featured this song; suffice it to say, "a lot."
God only knows what we'd been without him 🙏🏻

Hey tyler hopefully this doesn’t violate some PI.FYI golden rule
But after nearly two years of writing, editing and arguing, my book about the EP is coming out in May and can be preordered here:
https://hozacrecords.com/product/aifl/
The book is about the origins, history and cultural impact of the EP since these little objects first started coming out in the 50s.
Over 50 of my music biz friends then helped me shape the list and review the top 200 ever released, according to us (ha).
For those of you who are into this kind of geekery/snobbery, I can’t wait to hear what you think. A labor of love, as all books are! ❤️
