Well the rumors are now true. Williamsburg venue Cameo Gallery will close near the end of next month. They just posted the announcement on Facebook:
As all good things must come to an end, Cameo Gallery will be closing its operations on Nov. 21st, 2015. We are extremely grateful for the opportunity to have been part of an amazing music scene. We want to give a heartfelt thanks to all those who have been a part of our existence since we opened our doors 7 years ago.The November 21 closing is almost exactly (minus a day) the one-year anniversary of Death by Audio's final night. Cameo says they'll be announcing their final round of shows soon, but in the meantime they'll be business as usual, including a very busy CMJ. As we mentioned before, those streamers were as iconic a stage backdrop as Glasslands' clouds and it will be sad not seeing them -- or seeing shows or dancing -- at Cameo once it's closed. You'll be missed.

UPDATE: It's official... Cameo will close on November 21.
More changes to the Williamsburg club scene. Though no official announcement has been made (and, update: the club say it's not true), we hear (and have been hearing for a while) that Cameo Gallery will be closing soon. It opened in the back of the Lovin' Cup Cafe on North 6th St in 2008 (who saw Mumford & Sons there in 2009?).
A look at their calendar has nothing booked for September past the 9/19 edition of Mondo!, and only one show for October (Gringo Starr on 10/10). Their streamer-lined ceiling is second only to Glasslands' clouds as iconic Williamsburg club backdrops went. It will be sad to see those go.
UPDATE: Cameo reached out and says this is "all rumors right now! Not true." We hope so!
In the last year, Williamsburg has lost Death by Audio, Glasslands, Spike Hill, Trash Bar (which closed officially on June 27th), and more.
Also: that 9/19 edition of Mondo! will be the last for the long-running indiepop danceparty which is calling it quits after 11 years of playing "This Charming Man" and other favorites. Before Cameo, Mondo! threw down at Don Hill's. We'll miss ya, Mondo.
Big Terrific, the long-running, weekly comedy show at Cameo, already said goodbye earlier this year.
Check out a few videos from the club, below...

House of Blues Sunset Strip closing in August so hotels can be built (Anthrax, Stiff Little Fingers & more playing final shows)

LAist reports that a few Sunset Strip locations will have to close this year so new hotels can be built, including the original Hustler store and the House of Blues. The music venue opened in 1994 and an official closing date has been set for August 7. A demolition date is still TBA.
As of now, the final schedule includes Soul Asylum & Meat Puppets, Freddie Gibbs, Anthrax, Stiff Little Fingers, and more. There are still a handful of open spots in the venue's last weeks, so perhaps some final shows are planned. If so, we know it won't be a metal band, as Blabbermouth points out that Anthrax show will be the venue's last metal show.
Regarding the venue, Anthrax bassist Frank Bello said, "Every show we've done at the Sunset House of Blues has been a party. Everyone who we're friends with who's not on tour shows up, either to jam or drink or just hang out. And I'll really miss that. Sunset Boulevard has lost its last great place to play."

East Village party palace and venue, Lit Lounge, will close sometime in the next two months after 13 years in business. EV Grieve noted last month that there was a big "FOR RENT" sign on the building and confirmation came Thursday (7/9) via Clubplanet.com who interviewed Lit owners Steve Lewis and David Schwartz:
Steve Lewis: What was the primary reason for closing and moving shop to Bushwick?In addition to being a place to dance and indulge in some late-night hedonism, their downstairs venue used to be home of the much-missed Precious Metal nights, as well as hosting lots of hyped shows during the "free Sparks" mid-'00s years.
Erik Foss: The new East Village crowd and the flight of the creative types to creative Brooklyn . It was inevitable. NYC is an ever changing animal. I am just glad that I got to be here before downtown changed into what it is now.
David Schwartz: Ehh, not happy with the newbies in the East Village. Millenials don't go out and the artistic ones left for Brooklyn digs 4 yrs ago.
Lit's sister club in Bushwick is still not open but its restaurant component, Currant Cafe, is and has been for more than a year. Says Foss, "Lit Bk could open next week or in 3 months, it's really a mystery as we have no real control of this last step." Foss also told Clubplanet that Aaron Pierce, founder of Williamsburg's soon-to-close Trash Bar, is now a part of the Lit team.
photos: Brooklyn Night Bazaar (more by Greg Cristman)
Brooklyn Night Bazaar's landlord let them know that a new tenant is taking over their Brooklyn space and they need to be out by June 1st. The Greenpoint music venue, food and shopping space, where shows are usually free, still has a few shows coming up though.
RSVP is open for a 5/14 Skaters and Team Spirit show presented by DoNYC and Jack Daniels.
Breakdown Brass Band headline on 5/15.
A Place to Bury Strangers is 5/16.
Priests and Perfect Pussy are 5/22 and 5/23, part of a Time Out presented weekend that you can buy an "Ultimate pass" for.
For just $35, the Ultimate pass provides you and a friend with expedited entry to skip the line, and four beers from the Brooklyn Night Bazaar beer garden (choose from Sixpoint Brewery, Budweiser and Narragansett). Dinner for two is included, consisting of five complimentary tastings from Brooklyn Night Bazaar's standout food trucks and carts, including Oaxaca Taqueria, Crafty 'Cue, Brooklyn Crab, Daly Pie and more.The Jeff Rosenstock show for 5/30 is cancelled.
Plus, receive a free game of black-light mini golf or table tennis, and score access to our VIP area for the Time Out Live music showcase so you can get up close to the bands. Copious eats, free-flowing booze and two bills packed full of cutting-edge rock? Your weekend is made.
UPDATE: Here's a statement from the venue:
It is with a heavy heart that we announce the Brooklyn Night Bazaar will be vacating its home of almost 2 years as of June 1. The building owner of 29 Norman Avenue has reached a deal with a large multinational company that included an enormous rent increase we could not possibly match. While we are excited to be starting our inaugural summer Riis Park Beach Bazaar this Memorial Day weekend, we are saddened and extremely disappointed to lose a space we built from the ground up and poured our heart and soul into over the years. In the end, the ever skyrocketing cost of Brooklyn real estate was something that made staying at this location an impossibility.Nice knowing you Brooklyn Night Bazaar, but welcome Riis Park Beach Bazaar by the same people, but in the Rockaways!
A big shout out and thanks to all the incredible bands, rad vendors, killer food stands, creative artists, great staff, and the hundreds of thousands of visitors that made BKNB a truly unique and special place. We'll miss you all.
We are continuing to look at new spaces for the next incarnation of Brooklyn Night Bazaar. This is the third time since 2011 we've been booted out of somewhere for someone bigger with a shit ton more money. It sucks, but that's what happens when you're a DIY business in 2015 NYC. But we'll come back, we always do.
The last BKNB shows will be May 22 and May 23.
UPDATE 2: Apparently BMW is moving in to the space.
Westway's discoball
Downtown club Westway, the former Gentleman's club that was turned into a legit club and venue (with lurid red leather interior intact), will close in July, Grub Street reports. While it was mainly known as a nightlife and celebrity hang, Westway also had shows there regularly, and over the last couple years welcomed such acts as FKA Twigs, Sylvan Esso, Smoke DZA, Alex Winston, to name a few. As is a familiar story these days, the space is being turned into luxury condominiums. Owners say they are planning special parties and live shows before their July 1 close date.

Despite protests from local officials, union members, and members of the state Legislature, NJ did in fact vote to close the Izod Center...
the board that controls the Meadowlands Sports Complex voted Thursday in favor of a Christie administration plan to close the Izod Center, as soon as the end of this month.The American Dream project that the article mentions is the new shopping and entertainment center that's being built next to the location of the Izod Center. NY1 also points out that if lawmakers approve gambling outside of Atlantic City, a casino could open in the Meadowlands as well.
Capping a discussion that went on for nearly four hours, both in public and behind closed doors, the members of the Sports and Exposition Authority voted 10-2 to shutter the 34-year-old indoor arena until at least January of 2017, about the time the American Dream project is expected to open. [NorthJersey.com]
The Izod Center will still host a few more events before its March 31 closure, including wrestling, the circus, Disney live, Chris Brown and Maroon 5. Anything after March 31st is cancelled. RIP Izod Center/Continental Airlines Arena/Brendan Byrne (for now at least).
As Gothamist, Eater and The Daily News pointed out, Park Slope's Tea Lounge is closing for good this weekend:
We are sad to say to the community and our loyal customers that we're closing Tea Lounge on Sunday 12/14/14. Stop by so we can say goodbye— tea lounge brooklyn (@tealoungeny) December 10, 2014
This is the big Union St. location across from the Park Slope Food Coop that sometimes hosts live music (though The Daily News mentions "live music at night and trivia events did little to lure customers and generate business."). Their cozier 7th Ave & 10th St. location closed in 2008 (and is now a bubble tea place).
The Daily News talked to the owner:
Jonathan Spiel, 45, is closing the Brooklyn java joint Monday after 14 years due to dwindling business caused by customers who plug away on laptops for hours without ordering anything more than a measly cup of joe.Some people obviously took that the wrong way, so the Tea Lounge since tweeted, "The article in the daily news was crap. I truly appreciate all of the loyal customers."
"People take advantage of the space," Spiel said. "I'm running a business, not a community center."
Goodbye Tea Lounge!
After 5 years of business on North 7th, and just when it finally became the only bar with that name in the hood, Williamsburg bar D.B.A. Brooklyn posted the following message to Facebook this week:
We're very sad to say d.b.a. brooklyn will be closing at the end of the month. It's a special place for so many special people. Please come out and have a drink before we go!Gothamist points out that "The bars stayed open after owner Ray Deter died while bicycling in Manhattan in 2011 and it appears the East Village location will stay that way."
The Saints face the Steelers @1 Sunday 11/30 so the game party will be on as usual & following we will have a send off (drink the inventory and say goodbye) bash...The facebook page will remain active and we will use it to let everyone know next steps (new location if possible??) or next place to meet as a group for a drink (or a few!)
p.s. - We're open Thanksgiving @5pm - George will be behind the bar serving up turkey (wild) & cranberry (juice). It's delicious!
Have a good holiday!

the ol' Glasslands clouds (and Parenthetical Girls) (more by Amanda Hatfield)
First Death by Audio, and now their neighbors Glasslands. The venue just posted the following:
Dearest friends -Very sad to have them go, but good to see them promising it's "not forever."
You're probably getting used to hearing news like this in Williamsburg, so we'll cut right to the chase: this New Year's Eve will be Glasslands' final night of music.
When Glasslands opened in 2006 as an experimental community art space, Kent Avenue felt like a forgotten backwater, scattered with old warehouses playing temporary home to non-profit arts collectives, galleries, and DIY shows. During that time, our single block saw a handful of historically ambitious art & music spaces open: Secret Project Robot/Lives With Animals, Paris London West Nile, Pyramids, Death By Audio, 285 Kent... we're proud to have grown up in this place and time.
It was an awesome blur: there were shows with MGMT, TV On The Radio, Bon Iver, Yeasayer, Disclosure, Alt-J, there were Soul Clap dance competitions, there were aerialists, comedians, theater groups, fashion shows, raves.
Most importantly, the staff, artists, and party people that have been a part of Glasslands for the past 8 years made the venue a special creative home for music, and a joy to run. It's impossible to fully communicate how grateful we are for all your love and support.
We've got a few months left, and we intend for them to be our best ever. Please come by and help us celebrate our final season.
Goodbye for now, but not forever.
We worried about this when we wrote about DbA closing, but Glasslands assured us at the time that we had nothing to worry about. Maybe because they knew they were at least going to move? Whether this is a direct result of VICE moving in to the building is still unclear, but it's hard to say it isn't at least related.
Meanwhile there's still plenty of shows happening before they close, including many this week for CMJ. Check out their upcoming schedule here.

And another one goes. One of the original free-pizza-with-beer bars in North Brooklyn (that also hosted free music a lot of nights), Lulu's in Greenpoint, will be shutting it's doors for good on August 9. From the venue's Facebook:
To our amazing customers: It is with a heavy heart that I tell you that the rumors are true. Lulu's will be closing its doors in two weeks; our last day open will be August 9th. We would like to thank all of you for making this such an amazing place to hang out! The customers at this bar are the best ever and I'm not just saying that Please stay tuned as there are a lot of fun shows in the next couple of weeks, with our grand finale show on August 9th to be announced soon. - Lulu'sGreenpointers informs us that Lulu's closing comes over a dispute with the landlord when owners wanted to turn it into a gay bar:
In April of this year Lulu's owner John McGillion took out a lawsuit against his landlord for not allowing him to turn the establishment into a gay bar. According to the New York Post, McGillion stated that he was "barely scraping by on the proceeds of the bar" and felt that he would "be able to make a considerable profit" by making Lulu's a gay venue. The landlord's alleged (and shocking) 'anti-gay clause' stopped this idea from ever coming to fruition.Lulu's, we're sad to see you go, especially under such circumstances. There's still a week still to enjoy the music, drinks and free pizza. Friday (8/1) there's a solid bill of local punk with Ivy, Ajax, and Nandas.

My first apartment in NYC was on Third Ave between 27th and 28th, and at the time my friend Jason was in an alt-country band. Between the two, I spent a lot of time at the Rodeo Bar, one of the few places that consistently booked country music in Manhattan. (Rockabilly and folk too.) It was also the filming location of Lou Barlow's infamous interview on MTV's Sex in the '90s which some of you may remember. (You would think a clip of this would be online somewhere.) I haven't been there in a few years, but was sad to hear this:
Dear Rodeo Bar patrons and music lovers,The NYC Real Estate market is no joke these days. As the note mentions, The Rodeo Bar will be open until July 27 with free music every night. Tonight (7/11) it's guitarist Joe Taino. Sorry to see you go, Rodeo Bar. Its remaining live schedule below...
We are deeply saddened to announce that after 27 years in business, Rodeo Bar and Grill is closing its doors after July 27, 2014.
Here at New York's longest-running honky-tonk, we stayed open during some of the city's toughest times -- Hurricane Sandy, the 2003 blackout, 9/11 -- but recent rent increases, combined with a changing landscape, have made it impossible for us continue.
For the past three decades, Rodeo Bar has been home to thousands of bands, and we're proud to have helped define the country, Americana and rockabilly scene in New York City for all these years. But more than that, we were supported by an incredible community of people from New York and all over the world who helped make this bar great. We can't thank y'all enough.
For the rest of July, we're open every night, and the music schedule is killer -- and free, as it always has been. So come on down and join us for every show, every Shiner, and every moment with the horse trailer we call home. We're going out with our boots on.
Much Love, and Until the Buffalo Sings,

"The same old Bushwick story," told us the bar manager, Tuck on the phone today confirming that indeed, Wreck Room is closing on Saturday. "Landlord, new lease, rent increase...." Tuck refused to tell us the specific numbers but told us that the owner was over it already. "After nine years...."It's not just Williamsburg that's seeing a makeover happen. Bushwick bar -- and host of many metal and rock shows -- The Wreck Room will close after nine years this weekend. Saturday (6/28) will be last last night to get wrecked there. We'll miss ya.
An employee whose name we didn't catch on the phone mentioned also constant trouble with the maintenance of the place and the landlord.
Arancini Bros, the famed rice ball maker will be closing too. - [Bushwick Daily]
(via Emet's Facebook, photo by Min Chai Lee)
Bushwick, Brooklyn venue Emet, which has recently hosted shows from Turnip King, Mannequin Pussy, Grass Is Green, and more, has allegedly been shut down due to legal issues. A Facebook post from Oliver of Ghostpal regarding this Friday's (5/2) show reads:
Hey yawls. Some bad news here, not just for us but for NYC music in general. Emet has been shuttered do to legal hassles. Which means a lot of things, one of which is that we're now short a venue for our freak out on Friday. It may need to be postponed, but for the time being we're trying to see if we can move it somewhere. We're trying some angles but it's hard to knock together on short notice, and we probably need your help. A call to arms! Anyone got ideas/leads/dreams in terms of finding a spot for a bonkers party on Friday night?That sucks. Meanwhile, the venue has not yet announced this themselves, so details are sparse, but stay tuned for more info.
UPDATE: A statement was posted to Emet's Facebook:
Hey, as you may have heard elsewhere, we have gone dark for the time being because of landlord/neighbor issues. This ain't the last you'll hear from us, though, and we're seeing what we can do to get back on our feet either here or elsewhere as soon as possible. The poetry reading on May 9th is still happening, as will be the Showpaper potlucks and other non-musical events. The love you all have shown us over the last nine months is so fucking wild, thank you. -Stuart, Aaron, Ethan and rest who made Emet happen.Friday night's show, which still needs a home, is presented by Windsor Terrace recording studio, musician's collective and record label Mama Coco's Funky Kitchen. MCFK bands on the bill are Sons of an Illustrious Father, Ghostpal, The Freaky Baby Daddies, NO ICE, and instrumental Brooklyn via Minneapolis trio Iced Ink whose new album "Television Ears" is streaming at Bandcamp and was recently reviewed by Jersey Beat.

Just as the glow of Record Store Day is wearing off comes sad news (via EV Grieve) from EV mainstay Kim's Video & Music:
As great as #RSD2014 was (thank you all!), sadly we will be closing our store on 1st Ave. No closing date yet but 30% off ALL VIDEO and MUSIC. (all formats and NRs as well). - [Facebook]The 1st Ave store was the last of a once healthy NYC empire. It was also one of the last (maybe THE last?) places to find cult/foreign/import DVDs and Blu-Rays. Mondo Kim's on St. Mark's Place closed in 2009.
Do Stop Believing -- Canal Room is about to be no more (more by Andrew St. Clair)
The Canal Street venue that lately is mostly known for hosting 80s & 90s themed tribute shows (like the one we caught in 2011 with Debbie Gibson and Tiffany), is closing. The final two nights at Canal Room, despite what this 12/20 letter said, are January 10 & 11:
From Canal Room co-owner Marcus LinialTickets for the final two shows on 1/10 & 1/11 are still on sale, and future "Saved by the 90s" and "Back to the Eighties" shows will happen at Le Poisson Rouge.
Last Call. Canal Room Closing. It's Bittersweet.
After 15 years in the building and 10 years as Canal Room , My partner Sam and I have sold the club. This was our decision and the timing was right. The space will be a new upscale lounge. Not a live music venue. We wish the new owner all the best.
Our last 2 night's will be
Friday Jan 3rdwith The Bayside Tigers and Saturday Jan 4thwith Jessie's Girl - The Worlds Hottest '80s Tribute Band. Could't think of a better way to go out.
We thank all of our amazing staff over the years you know who you are, all the bands that have performed on our stage. All the customers and clients. Without you..we could not have been in business for so long.
Also excited that both shows Back To The Eighties Show with Jessie's Girl and Saved By The 90s Party with The Bayside Tigers have a new home. More on that soon.
Hope to see you all over the next few weeks and at our final weekend
Jan 3 & 4. Happy Holidays to you all.
Our own memories of Canal Room include seeing Patterson Hood of Drive By Truckers there in 2009, ending up there for random CMJ showcases and sponsored parties, watching Jon Brion make magic with Rhett Miller, catching an artsy performance as part of a Fischerspooner residency, and seeing The Go! Team cheer through a show right when they were all the hype. What do you remember about the place?
Goodbye Canal Room!
Fucked Up at 285 Kent in 2011 (more by Keith Marlowe)
You may have noticed that following last night's Maria Minerva show (12/19) at Brooklyn's 285 Kent, there are no more upcoming shows scheduled at the venue. (The only other one would have been the Don Giovanni showcase, which has since been taken off-sale.) We've heard the rumor, but 285 Kent representatives have not officially confirmed that the Williamsburg DIY venue is closing. Todd P did say though, that despite a claim by Gothamist, "last night was not the last show ever at 285." One of the venue's reps, Ric Leichtung, also tweeted "Beyond tonight, we have not announced any other events at 285 Kent, though there may be others in the future."
If the venue does close for good, it'd be a sad loss for the Brooklyn music scene. It's been home to many great local shows, some especially exciting surprises like the one where A$AP Rocky and Grimes showed up, the Trash Talk show where Odd Future showed up, and just a number of wild shows by everyone from Fucked Up to Thee Oh Sees (who also unfortunately are going on hiatus).
Outside of Roseland in April (more by Robert Altamn)
Whether you actually liked seeing shows there or not, Roseland is one of NYC's classic venues. So sad news from Billboard:
New York City's famed Roseland Ballroom will close its doors in April, according to an internal e-mail obtained by Billboard, though no official announcement has been made.Danzig played the venue last night. We'll miss ya, Roseland!
The venerable venue, owned by developer Larry Ginsberg and booked by Live Nation, opened at its 52nd street location, a converted skating rink, in 1958 and is a sentimental favorite for many bands. The history of the venue in New York dates back to 1919, when it was located at 51st and Broadway, and prior to that in Philadelphia.
Evolving from ballroom dancing in the '20s to popular music, Roseland has for years been a favored New York play for a wide range of bands from the early days of rock, through disco, grunge, modern rock, jam, pop, urban and EDM. The venue found a new gear with a $1 million production/rigging renovation in the early '90s, funded by Ginsberg, which led to more high profile bookings of multiple dates on bands like Red Hot Chili Peppers, Nirvana, and other hot acts when competition in that cap range was not as fierce. - [Billboard]
East Village landmark Odessa Cafe Bar closing for good this weekend (the restaurant is staying open)
In another sign of the times, the Odessa Cafe Bar will close its doors for good, its last day being Saturday, August 31st, notes EV Grieve. The bar has been an East Village staple for more than 33 years on Ave A, falling victim, like so many others, to the rising rents and gentrification in the neighborhood. Odessa, the restaurant which is next door, is staying open and you can continue to get your pierogi fix.
Word is that the space will house an brasserie/cafe once the Odessa vacates.
Only two days left until Bar4 says goodbye forever, and now comes word that...
It's last call for beloved Park Slope dive bar Jackie's 5th Amendment. The old saloon, which has been owned and operated by the same family since the '50s, will close next month on September 14th, bartender Tony Ferrara tells us. "The owner's health is deteriorating," Ferrara explains. "It's going to be taken over by the pharmacy next door."Meanwhile, still time for one last drink at Bar 4.
Jackie's, known for its cheap drinks and mini beer buckets, was beloved for being a no-frills sanctuary in a sea of all-consuming yupsterfication. (Last November, employees of the bar petitioned President Obama to allow the bar to secede from Park Slope.) "I'm just sad," Ferrara says. "We open up at 8 a.m. for people getting off the night shifts. Back when it was Costello's in the '60s my parents used to come here to drink. It's a shame to see these kind of bars leave the area, because once they're gone they're gone forever."
News of the closing [was] first reported by Brooklyn Magazine" [Gothamist]
South Slope bar and music venue Bar4 closes its doors forever this Thursday, August 15th. That gives you a more few days to catch a show and say your final goodbyes.
They've been celebrating all weekend by hosting the 4th annual Local Correspondents Fest, a packed schedule of bands and singer-songerwriters who have graced the stage over the years. Surprise sets so far have included a reunion by the Undisputed Heavyweights whose singer Casey Shea was also on the schedule. Maybe Furthur drummer Joe Russo and Cass McCombs or Zach Williams of Park Slope success story The Lone Bellow (they met at Dizzy's and recently headlined Prospect Park) will stop in like they have often in the past (note: we have no clue if either really will or already did). Tonight looks like this:
Monday August 12thTuesday is Bar4 open mic. Wednesday is the final Motherfuckin Bingo followed by a "dance party with some of our regular DJs from over the years". August 15 currently has nothing listed on the schedule.

Delicate Steve added to final night at Maxwell's and tickets on sale now; Single Dynamite (feat Ira Kaplan & Janet Weiss) opened for Lee Ranaldo
Lee Ranaldo & The Dust / Single Dynamite (via @countfeed / @everydayanothersong)
This is it, the last day for iconic Hoboken rock club, Maxwell's which is shutting it's doors tonight (or the wee hours of Thursday) after 35 years. Last night's penultimate show at Maxwell's was headlined by Lee Ranaldo & The Dust. One of the openers was a mystery group, Single Dynamite, which turned out to include Yo La Tengo's Ira Kaplan and Quasi drummer Janet Weiss. Did anyone go last night? How was it?
UPDATE: Check out a full set of pictures from the Lee Ranaldo/Single Dynamite show.
Meanwhile, today's Maxwell's closing block party starts at 4 PM on the street outside the club. In addition to the already-announced line-up of The Bongos, The Individuals and "a", Delicate Steve has been added to the bill. NJ.com reports that thing may be broken up into two separate shows inside the club: Delicate Steve and The Individuals at 6 PM; and then The Bongos and "a" at 9 PM.
The block party is free but the shows are notTickets ($10) for those final two shows (Individuals, Delicate Steve and The Bongos and "a") go on sale at 2 PM today.
Sad news for the South Slope:
Friends and family,They survived Hurricane Sandy, but are no match for gentrification. I guess it remains to be seen if someone might take over the space and leave the stage, though that seems doubtful.
It is with great sadness that we announce that after 14 years as a neighborhood institution, music venue and beloved Slope staple, Bar 4 will be permanently closing its doors on August 15, 2013.
In 1999 President Bill Clinton's impeachment trial ended in acquittal in the Senate, a little file-sharing website called Napster was sued by the RIAA on charges of copyright infringement and a wee Canadian boy named Justin Bieber turned 5.
Oh, and Bar 4 opened its doors at the dusty end of 7th Avenue in a pre-hip Park Slope.
For a decade-and-a-half this venue has been a launching pad for musicians who have gone on to international acclaim and played host to local acts with world class talent. The neighborhood has changed, and so have we. But as one era gives way to another we must face the financial realities that have confronted so many other good, hardworking Brooklynites.
We have been a home and refuge to many and we will be eternally grateful to the wellspring of goodwill, support and love so many of you have provided over the years.
We've hosted your dance parties, queer nights, vinyl DJ's, killer comics, striving musicians (our epic open mic night is surpassed by none), lonely souls, love connections, breakups, burlesque ensembles, baby showers, Food Co-op revues, art shows, strip poker, Halloween freakouts, New Years Eve bonanzas, spontaneous weeknight drinkathons, bingo bouts, karaoke, karaoke, karaoke and did we mention our epic open mic nights?
We'll miss seeing your faces, hanging your posters in our windows, cleaning up your broken glasses, taking your forgotten umbrellas home, looking at your Instagram photos (THAT's something that wouldn't have made any sense 14 years ago), doing shots with you and telling you to keep it down for our neighbors.
The next few weeks will be one long goodbye. Come share it with us. There will be homecomings, hugs, tears, pickle backs, and lots and lots of music. Stay tuned for the specifics as we work out our calendar, but rest assured you are invited to every last minute we have.
With love,
Ted, Larry, Erin, and The Entire Bar4 Family
Sad to see you go Bar4.
It was a rough week for Bushwick DIY venue Big Snow Buffalo Lodge. Though no statement was released, apparently there was a shooting at the club on Wednesday night (7/17). Whether it was inside or outside Big Snow is unclear, but someone,
possibly a doorman, was rushed to the hospital and the night's show was canceled. The space, which opened back in 2011, had also recently suffered setbacks due to flooding.

Public Assembly front room may not reopen for shows; back closing for renovations soon (but first the final PA Bunker?)
outside Public Assembly at BV-CMJ 2012 (more by Amanda Hatfield)
North 6th Williamsburg 2-stage venue Public Assembly (formerly Galapagos) recently closed their front room for renovations and are about to do the same in the back. That means there are literally only about two weeks of shows scheduled at the club at the moment. Krallice is playing the final show, and one of the others will be Bunker, which also may be Bunker's last at that venue according to to this message they sent out:
Four and a half years after founding The Bunker at subTonic, we moved the party to 70 North 6th Street (then called Galapagos) in July of 2007. We immediately found it to be the perfect space for the party, and have hosted the majority of our events there ever since. By our rough count, we've done about 150 parties in the back room over the past 6 years. Many of you have been there for most of those events, discovered every nook and cranny of the space, and know the bartenders and security staff by name.Meanwhile the Bunker will continue to throw parties at new Williamsburg club Output. Their current upcoming schedule and flyer for the Public Assembly show are below.
As of now the front room is under renovations and is never to reopen as a music venue. The back room closes for a few months of renovation starting in mid-July. We're not really sure what shape it will take or if it will be appropriate for The Bunker when it reopens in September.
We wanted to have one more party to say a proper goodbye to the back room as we know it. The night will start with a deep, heady set from Borne (aka Scott Vizioli) and end with some late night haus from our good friend Atomly. Both of these guys have probably been to 140+ of the 150 events at Public Assembly. Shawn O'Sullivan, who has appeared at The Bunker solo and with his band Led Er Est, will treat us to one of his mindbending live sets. Resident DJs Bryan and Servito fill in the gaps. NikSound will of course be in the house. Goodbye for now, PA.
And what really caught our eye in that message above was the part about the front room never reopening for shows. That would definitely stink, especially since we've gotten kind of comfortable with the space as the home of our BrooklynVegan CMJ parties lately. Stay tuned for more info!

Tuesday evening held a lot of promise for the New York Yankees. A-Rod was back in the lineup, Mike Mussina was on the mound, and Joe Girardi has just preached about the Yanks restarting with a clean slate.
Well, Moose gave up 7 runs and didn't even finish the first inning before getting pulled. Derek Jeter left the game after getting hit in the hand by a pitch. And a retaliatory throw by LaTroy Hawkins almost resulted in a bench clearing brawl. All this, and a 12-2 loss to the Orioles, too.
So much for promise.
But there was one positive - Jeter's x-rays came back negative. As reported in the NEW YORK TIMES:
Jeter was examined by Dr. Stuart Hershon, the team physician, and was determined to have a bruise. Jeter, who missed six games earlier this season with a strained left quadriceps muscle, will be re-evaluated Wednesday.
Jeter's left hand was wrapped with an elastic bandage to the middle of his forearm. Not surprisingly, he described the injury as "no big deal," then said he would like to play Wednesday, in the second game of a three-game series against the Orioles.
"Obviously, it doesn't feel good," he said, "but it should be all right by tomorrow."
Of course Jeter's not going to let a little thing like a hurt hand keep him down. He must have gotten all that strength & stamina while going through the Maxim Hot 100.
Oh, and A-Rod did belt a 2-run homer in the 6th. Sure, the Yanks still lost by 10 runs & have been out-scored 30-8 by the O's in this current homestand. But such hits can do a lot for Alex's confidence.
And when a guy is prone to fainting during hospital visits, he needs all the pick-me-ups he can get.

Sugar Skulls FTW by ShadowsElectricWatch
©2011-2016 ShadowsElectric
something to pass the time
these skulls are beautiful, I love the Spanish style. I have a tattoo very similar to the white one.
Thank you! There are 8 total. I need to get a pic of all of them together. You can buy these skulls at Michael's, they come in a brown/paper bag color. I would suggest priming them before painting them.
Sugar skull tattoo's will never be cliche. I want one myself.
Sugar skull tattoo's will never be cliche. I want one myself.
So pretty.
Thanks for the compliment. I see that you're in the US. I bought these skulls at Michael's. (the arts and crafts store) You might be able to purchase them online. They were originally brown. If you buy 'em, I would recommend buying a white primer(gesso)as well, if you want to paint them a vibrant color. A lot of the designs on these skulls were made with markers and paint pens.
Thank you again!
Thank you again!

In this article, I look at the games industry explosion and how it relates to the generations growing up with games. I ask whether the MMO genre is headed for its own great gaming renaissance and take a speculative look ahead at the future for MMOs and the games industry as a whole.
In this article, I look at the games industry explosion and how it relates to the generations growing up with games. I ask whether the MMO genre is headed for its own great gaming renaissance and take a speculative look ahead at the future for MMOs and the games industry as a whole.
The gaming renaissance:
As kids, we absorb an incredible amount of information from our environments as we learn to fit into it appropriately. The things we're exposed to when we're young have a profound impact on our technical aptitudes in adulthood and the direction we take our lives. Those that grew up alongside the early computers sparked a new wave of computer research, bringing with them new ideas and ways of thinking. Similarly, those that grew up with early game systems learned an aptitude for gaming and the first video gamers were born.
In the 1990's, people that grew up with the Commodore 64, ZX Spectrum, Amiga and early dedicated games consoles began taking the reigns of the industry in which they'd always just been consumers. Juvenile programmers invented themselves as game designers and the games industry experienced a boom in both revenue and innovation. We saw the advent of 3D games, new graphics hardware and an eruption of new game ideas that hadn't been considered before. The games industry began to find its place as mainstream entertainment and a new generation grew up with parents that played video games. Since then, the games industry has become as intractable a part of our society as the movie industry or our love of books. Each new generation absorbs the games of their time, learning insights and an aptitude that the previous generation didn't have. Each generation brings us to the next step in an ongoing evolution of gaming.
The MMO renaissance:
For many of us, the MMO genre is such a part of our lives that we can scarcely recall a time when we didn't play them. We sometimes forget just how young this genre we love really is. In the not-so-distant past it was barely anything to speak about at all. With the exclusion of early MUDs, the first graphical online worlds that we could call MMOs spawned in the early 90's. Games like Neverwinter Nights, Nexus, Meridian 59 and The Realm paved the way for Ultima Online, Everquest, Lineage, World of Wacraft and the other MMOs we have today. It wasn't until the very late 90's that the games we've come to know as the iconic MMOs came about. With Lineage released in 1998 and Everquest hitting the shelves in 1999, it's almost shocking how far we've come in the past ten years.
In the same way that the games industry as a whole experienced a generational boom of talent and innovation, we stand on the cusp of an evolutionary leap for MMOs. The kids that grew up with Lineage, Ultima Online, Runescape and all the more recent MMO releases have begun hitting employment age. There now exists a new generation of talented individuals, fresh out of education and with almost half a lifetime of MMO gaming under their belts. Graphic artists, 3D modelers, programmers, game designers, writers, music composers and even voice actors are now coming into the jobs market with significant MMO experience. These are people who have watched the MMO genre grow and evolve and they're in a good position to know what works. They bring with them a new wave of innovation and a fresh dose of enthusiasm, the two things that genuinely fuel the games industry.
Read on to page 2, where I take a look at how new talent is entering the industry and what has me so excited for the future of the games industry and MMOs.

What It Is
The Polly Pocket Carpool Cruiser is a car with a backseat pool, which, of course gives new meaning to the phrase carpool. Use the lever to roll down the car's top to reveal a pool in the backseat. Fill the backseat pool with water and push the button to create bubbles. The included Polly doll features color-change hair that transforms with warm and cold water. The driver's side door opens and closes. Two dolls can sit in the front seat, and there are two seatbelts for them to wear while "driving." The vehicle also comes with accessories, such as a towel, a hat, sunglasses, a bag, sandals, and beverage cup. Additional Polly Pocket dolls are sold separately.
Is It Fun?
The Polly Pocket Carpool Cruiser adds some water play to small doll play. While having a pool in a car might be baffling to some adults, fans of Polly know that this is just the kind of fun but quirky stuff that shows up in her world. Kids will like the surprise of Polly's color-change hair and the reveal of the backseat pool. This playset is a great addition to any Polly Pocket collection, and it offers lots of imaginative play to Polly fans.
Who It's For
The Polly Pocket Carpool Cruiser is for ages 4 and up.
What To Be Aware Of
For the color-change hair effect, make sure to use icy cold water. Polly's hair will return to its original color when you apply warm water.
Overfilling the pool may cause leakage. Because this toy uses water, it's best to play with it in an area where it's okay to get wet. Drain, rinse, clean, and dry all items thoroughly before storing.

Scenes from Shell Cottage by WeasleyMom
Rated: 3rd-5th Years [Reviews - 128]
Summary: This fic is a series of missing moments from the time H/R&H were at Shell Cottage, beginning immediately after they Disapparated from Malfoy Manor. JKR shows us what was going on with Harry, but this is my version of what could have happened with Ron and Hermione after one of the most emotional/disturbing events in the entire series.
UPDATED June 2010 When I first wrote this fic, I didn't know what a beta reader was, and frankly, it showed. Thanks so much to Natalie for helping me polish this up and make it more readable. Thanks also to both Julia and Carole, whose helpful comments in the review section allowed me to make some much-needed corrections during the rewrite. I would love to know what you think ~ reviews are very much appreciated!
This was nominated in the 2010 Quicksilver Quill Awards for Best Canon Romance.
i know this is probably cliche but I love it and more fanfic please...
Author's Response: This is cliche too: thanks so much for reviewing. I'm thrilled you liked it. :)

Last we checked UV rays aren't strong enough to penetrate a domed roof, which would make it a little bit weird if Clay Buchholz sprayed sunscreen on his left forearm last week up in Toronto. That is, of course, unless he was trying to get a better grip on his pitches.
Yahoo!'s Jeff Passan reported Wednesday that, according to two veteran major leaguers and one source close to the Red Sox, about 90 percent of big-league pitchers use spay-on sunscreen ("almost always BullFrog brand") that mixes with rosin from a rosin bag to give a pitcher an enhanced grip on his pitches.
"Sunscreen and rosin could be used as foundation for houses," one American League pitcher told Passan. "Produces a tack, glue-like substance that engineers would be jealous of."
Buchholz was charged by Toronto broadcasters with doctoring baseballs at Rogers Centre after he threw seven shutout innings to beat the Blue Jays last week. The Jays never accused Buchholz of any wrongdoing, and the umpiring crew at that game never investigated Buchholz for any illegal activity on the mound.
Yahoo! couldn't get a comment out of Buchholz on the subject, but a source close to the Sox said using sunscreen is common among the members of their pitching staff, especially in inclement weather.
It's not illegal for a pitcher to use sunscreen on days that he pitches. Not yet, anyway. That means that it appears, for now at least, it would be hard to punish a pitcher who combines the substance with rosin to gain a competitive edge.
Until that changes, buy stock in BullFrog.
