Extra Golden + Ex + WFMU

FreeNYC Event Flyer

Date: Wednesday, August 20th
Time: 6:00pm - 10:00pm
Location: Damrosch Park Bandshell (W 62nd St & Amsterdam Ave)
Cost: Free

"This is the first ever NYC appearance of avant-punk Dutch band the Ex with the legendary Getatchew Mekurya on saxophone. Lincoln Center's addition of singers Mahmoud Ahmed and Alemayehu Eshete with the Either/Orchestra offers a great, historical presentation of classic Ethiopian artists (all of whom have been showcased in the famed Ethiopiques series of recordings). Extra Golden's recordings forge a fusion between American rock and Kenyan Benga sounds, and have issued releases on the Thrill Jockey label." So much more info here. All Ages.

The Blues Brothers at River Flicks

FreeNYC Event Flyer

Date: Wednesday, August 20th
Time: Dusk (around 8 or 8:30)
Location: Pier 54 (14th st and the Hudson River)
Cost: Free

On top of getting to watch movies outside on beautiful summer nights on the Hudson River, the other thing I like about River Flicks is every year they pick a central theme for their screenings. This year they take on the world of music in movies. Tonight's film is the classic The Blues Brothers. "Jake and Elwood Blues are on a mission from God and are being helped by Aretha Franklin, James Brown and Ray Charles to name a few." Seating is first come, first served, and as always the popcorn is free!
