#williamsburg — Public Fediverse posts

Killer threefer last night, each show was top-tier.

First: earlier in the week caught wind of a free Hiss Golden Messenger album release show happening at one of my favorite rooms in Brooklyn, thankfully early enough to RSVP and conveniently working from home that day so got there in time for a great spot.

Wasn't sure what to expect, could've been solo or just a few songs, but this was just an absolute monster set at Skinny Dennis. New songs, some jams, a very cool cover of Dixie Chicken sandwiched in one, special guest (the fab Stephanie Coleman on fiddle). MC was in high spirits, the band sounded so good. Can't say enough about this one, so glad I made it.

Colonial Williamsburg’s palace gardens to get a makeover – Daily Press https://www.allforgardening.com/1730785/colonial-williamsburgs-palace-gardens-to-get-a-makeover-daily-press/ #garden #HomeAndGarden #LatestHeadlines #LocalNews #ThingsToDo #virginia #VirginiaGazette #VirginiaGazetteNews #Williamsburg

Alright, I've now hit this Tuesday gig 6 times this year and I've seen enough to say it's maybe the best thing going in NYC livemusic right now. Just hasn't been anything short of remarkable. And I'm discovering a lot of great new local talent. Two weeks ago this dude Mike Robinson on pedal steel was a revelation, the improv melodic and ambient. Last night, Ryan Weiner on guitar and it was some serious thick-necked jamprov.

Highest recommendation.

My new favorite regular gig in NYC is the improv jam going on at the Richardson in Williamsburg every Tuesday. Seems mostly organized by Scott Colberg, who's become my seek-at-all-costs bassist in town. Everything he does seems to be fantastic which is how I feel about Jeremy Gustin, who is often on these gigs as well.

Tonight the trio was those two and this new-to-me dude Abe Seiferth on guitar/electronics. Caught the second set and it was holyshit! good.

Amazing jams will always find a place to live in this town. If the last 25+ years have taught me anything, it's that.

Taper's Choice once again tonight. I love so many things this band does, I feel like I want to write paragraphs every time I see them. Tonight I was really zeroed in on how there's no standard "leader" in the band, much to their credit, and how it manifests itself in so many ways. The jamming gets almost *beyond* democratic. There was an extended stretch of improv where the keys and guitar were basically soloing simultaneously. Not a back-and-forth, not one complementing the other, but two guys somehow locked in for like ten minutes of build where they were almost indistinguishable from each other. Never seen anything like that and it blew my mind. Lots of moments like that. Last night was sick, tonight was something else. Wowza and more at Brooklyn Bowl.

https://social.emucafe.org/naferrell/protecting-new-trees-in-greenpoint-brooklyn/

Mary Frost of the Brooklyn Daily Eagle reported that “[t]he NYC Department of Parks planted 200 new trees in Greenpoint and Williamsburg over the past two weeks, with over a thousand more will becoming to [Council] District 33 within two years…” [Brooklyn Daily Eagle, August 11, 2025]. City Councilman Lincoln Restler, who announced the new trees, noted that the young new residents of northern Brooklyn will require maintenance:

Planting trees is just the first step, Restler added, urging locals to pledge to ‘adopt’ one to water and keep healthy and to check out a tree map showing the newly planted saplings.

I do not spend much time in either Greenpoint or Williamsburg, although I have written about both on The New Leaf Journal (see e.g., Donut Fender in Greenpoint, Brooklyn and BLOB DYLAN Seen in Williamsburg (May 2025)). But having granted that I do not spend much time that far north, I have enough of a feel for Brooklyn and areas like Greenpoint and the trendier parts of Williamsburg to note a curious omission in Mr. Restler’s statement. Mr. Restler wants residents to work together to water the new trees. I would be concerned about how residents water the new trees. The quality of dog owners and dog behavior in Brooklyn fell off a cliff beginning in 2020 and shows no sign of improving.
