Let The Music Slut Heal What Ails You

"Hair of the dog is a colloquial English expression predominantly used to refer to ingestion of alcohol as treatment for a hangover. It is occasionally used with respect to dealing with the aftereffects of use of other recreational drugs. It is a shortened form of the expression 'the hair of the dog that bit you.'"


Peasant: Beautiful and lovely
Luke Wesley: Piano, pop perfection
The Subway Band: Waltzing in Spain

Come out and nurse your holiday hangover with a free show at the Knitting Factory. We promise not to talk too loud.

The Music Slut Anniversary Show: Set times, Rumours, etc.

Our second anniversary show is fast approaching and we wanted to give you all a little update on set-times.

Doors are at 7:30pm and we hope you all make it in then. A film crew from Baeble Music will be there to catch all your gorgeous selves in action and you may want to get on screen before the drunken silliness begins.

8-9pm is free PBR, during which we will get a musical serenade from a very special guest and friend of this site. Not going to divulge who it is, but let's just say many of you have stomped around at his shows before.

Unfortunately, the Village Voice and Time Out New York both got it wrong, Die Romantik is NOT the special guest, though we do adore them with a passion and wish they were playing.

9-10 Our good friends The Lisps hit the stage with their brand of folk/pop/burlesque/euro/rock.

10ish-11ish My favourite living band, seriously, The Gaskets celebrate our anniversary with us once again with some new material.

11:30ish-1am The Glass do us the complete honor of playing and ending the show with an all out dance extravaganza.

Remember, to get in all you have to do is RSVP here.
