BKLYN Yard Space Coming Back to Life [Brownstoner] GMAP
Dude, they are going to be back Sunday, already a done deal as announced. see you there… wear a name tag…..
also known as an ‘Afternoon Delight’ 70’s song
The sounds system there is the most sophisticated in bklyn. One can talk two feet away… didn’t seem different to me…
The afternoon was wonderful! I love this event. Hope the cops give brooklyn this sunday’s sound permit!
seemed a lot louder than last year….but maybe that was just sunday’s dj….
“matinee” can be kinda hot. You can always do dinner afterwards or just leave with no awkward breakfast or brunch references or expectations :o). Also avoids weird cuddling situation afterwards.
jessibaby, a daytime affair is usually referred to as a “Matinee”.
So how does one work a one-night stand when you meet someone at one of these daytime drinking events? Are you forced to get numbers and try to meet up later?
We stopped by on Sunday and it was a great time. Good music, food, cheap-ish beer. It never got oppressively crowded. Perfect way to spend a summer afternoon. Only complaint was too few porto-johns. I fear that once word gets out that it will become a zoo.
