The Time: Sunday , November 2, 9:00 A.M

The Place: 88th Street and 4th Avenue, Bay Ridge, Brooklyn

The Three Reasons: First and foremost, to hear The Tash Brothers Band playing live on the streets of Brooklyn, the hottest rock & blues band on the planet. Secondly, to donate non-perishable food items to City Harvest to be donated to the hungry of New York City. And third, by the way, there’s a race going on in the city streets. It’s a little thing called The NYC Marathon and this year 39,000 people are running the 26 mile course.

So kill 3 birds with one stone and fill up an otherwise boring Sunday morning with one of the most exciting spectacles of Autumn in New York. Hear great music, donate food to our brothers and sisters who need it and witness 39,000 screaming maniacs in speedos cheering for the Tash Brothers as they boogie down 4th Avenue right at the beginning of the marathon. You got anything better to do this Sunday morning? It’s a day you’ll never forget and you’ll be home in time for your football games. What’s not to love with all your heart? Be there! -Bob Crespo, Tash Brother at large, and I approve his message.
