Prospect Park In Lights
I finished a much-needed day at home alone yesterday with a ride around Prospect Park, to photograph Prospect Park In Lights, a set of holiday lighting displays at the various grand entrances to the park. It was a mild evening … Continue reading
Happy Winter (?) Solstice
Yesterday’s New York Times said there was a cherry tree blooming at the Brooklyn Botanic Gardens. Today was so warm and beautiful that I got the bike out, did a bunch of errands, then rode over to the Gardens. Sure … Continue reading
Good Music This Weekend
Another magical night at Sunny’s in Red Hook tonight, and some good musical news on top of it. I went down there early to rehearse a couple of songs for the Sheriff Sessions on Friday night. The good musical news … Continue reading
A Windy Day In Red Hook
We went down to the Brooklyn Waterfront Artists Coalition show in Red Hook yesterday afternoon, and the wind was so stiff you could hardly walk. This enormous puddle forms at the foot of Van Brunt Street whenever it rains, and … Continue reading
Appearing in today’s New York Times…
I got home from a full day of gigging yesterday (and could you ask for a more beautiful day to spend sitting outside playing music???), picked up the Sunday Times, and saw myself in the travel section, which has an … Continue reading
Welcome to … Red Hook???
We were hungry tonight before the jam at Sunny’s, so we went next door to the Fairway. Oh. My. God. I have never before had to ask directions to get out of a grocery store. I was scolded by a … Continue reading
Sunset In Red Hook
I had a rehearsal in Red Hook this evening, and got there early (it’s one long downhill ride, so biking there takes about ten minutes), so I rode past the old Revere sugar factory and took some photos.
Cast Iron and Castaway Bikes: Blizzard in Brownstone Brooklyn
We got up (well, “we” is not quite the right word, but I finally did see the wisdom of getting up early and getting out into the SNOW!) and walked from Brooklyn Heights to Prospect Park at about 6.30. The … Continue reading
Friday Night in the Mansion
The show with Frank and Nancy Moccaldi last night was a wonderful free-for-all, with an old-time string band, traditional Irish and Scottish tunes (the latter on electric guitar), and a surfeit of harmonicas and banjos. The show was part of … Continue reading
Sunday Afternoon in Sunset Park / Bush Terminal
I took a long bike ride Sunday afternoon, down through Bensonhurst and Bay Ridge to the Belt Parkway, around under the Verrazano Bridge to 65th Street, and back through Sunset Park and Bush Terminal. I didn’t have the camera, just … Continue reading
