12 PM Westbound Train
11 PM King Django
10 PM Hub City Stompers
9 PM The Bluebeats
8 PM Royal City Riot

Down Stairs Middle Stage
11:30 PM Bigger Thomas (Feat. Roy Radics)

9:30 PM The Allstonians
8:30 PM The Attack (Ex-Spitvalves)
7:30 PM Mrs. Skannotto

It sucks that the last ska show at the Knitting Factory is completely awful.

I don't know what bands make that worth the drive (that took me about 8 hours from Cuse to NYC)

This sounds like a great show with the Void, the Allstonians, Westbound, Django and the Bluebeats...


looks like I'm going to NYC for the new year a few days early.

I've seen like 6 of them a mile away from me.
Don't need to drive that far to see them again.

I went to the Three Floors on Nov 1st. It wasn't the event that I've heard of before. I did get to see Deal's Gone Bad for the first time and I always like seeing the Toasters. It was my first time hearing the Void Union, definitely a band to check. Hub City was alright. I saw Royal City Riot at a little place on the East Side, they're pretty sweet. I would like to see Westbound, but I won't be around for this event. Aren't the Toasters playing? It be sick to see Skannotto at the Knitting Factory, too bad I won't make it.

That place gets crowded too, hope the new place is bigger, and closer to me, but I bet it will end up in Williamsburg.
