Hot Town! Summer in the City.
For the first time in New York, Slideluck Potshow will be venturing from the isle of Manhattan and into Kings County. It will also be
our
first outdoor slideshow potluck in NYC. We invite you to join us on Saturday, August 2nd, for Slideluck Potshow XII at McCarren Park Pool in
Williamsburg, Brooklyn!
For those of you not familiar with this venue, it's a gem of the Moses/LaGuardia era. It opened in
1936, in the middle of The Great Depression, and was designed to get people's minds off the economy. Here we are, 72 years later, hoping to do
the same. In the last couple years, the giant pool has lain empty, but has been filled with the sounds of great live music. This is the
last summer before
the city
converts it back into a swimming pool and they have a fantastic line-up: Devo, M.I.A, Gogol Bordello, The Black Keys, DJ Shadow, Wilco, and
What!?
Slideluck
Potshow? Like any truly historic occasion, it will smell of barbecue.
