TV on the Radio Rocks Brooklyn
Gowanus Lounge walks a gauntlet of Atlantic Yards flyers on the way to the TV on the Radio concert at the bandshell.
Gowanus Lounge would be remiss if we didn't note that Celebrate Brooklyn is one of the fronts in the war for the hearts and minds of Brooklynites over Atlantic Yards. Therefore, as we walked in, we were first handed a modest postcard by a young woman who said, "Stop the Overdevelopment of Brooklyn." (The card is promoting the anti-Atlantic Yards Rally at Grand Army Plaza on July 17.) About eight or nine yards further into the park, was a gentleman handing out Forest City Ratner's big, glossy promo brochure full of happy, smiling people (including the model who says she's horrified to be "Bruce Ratner's poster girl").
