Tonight: Impose Party @ Shea; Bikes In The Kitchen Party @ Lone Wolf (Both Free)
Impose Magazine is throwing a holiday party at Shea Stadium with a bunch of bands. It's free but suggested that you donate $5, which you should do. Elsewhere the Bikes In The Kitchen crew are breaking in the new version of the old Bodega space with a dance party. Bodega was once one of the best DIY spots in Brooklyn but got shutdown. Now it seems that it's been converted into a proper bar called The Lone Wolf.

Impose Was At Our Party, "Highest Quality Show...This Year" (Photos)
On Saturday Brooklyn Ski Club threw it's 5 year anniversary party with The Beets, Wild Yaks, Gunfight!, Spirit Family Reunion and Raccoon Fighter at Don Pedro's. The show started around 9:30pm and it was packed all night long.
I was running around like a maniac the whole night making sure the bands were all set and the door had change and what not. But everyone else there seemed to be having a hell of a good time.
We started promoting the show very late. Hell, we didn't even announce two of the bands until 4 days before the party. Needless to say I was a little worried about the turn out. But damn! People came out of the woodwork for this one.
Impose Magazine sent one of their photographers to the party and he said it was "the highest quality show I've been to this year"! I would be proud to hear that if it was January 5th but to get a compliment like that with only 3 weeks left in 2010 - well shit! I'm blushing. Thank you for the kind words Impose. And thank you to all the bands that played and everyone that came out.

Tonight: PBR Art Show; Team Robes @ Don Pedros; Far Out @ Macri Park
PBR is having an art show tonight and of course that means free beer. The open bar is from 9-10 and afterwards all PBR is a mere $1. The winner of the art show gets about $2K and a years worth of PBR (you drunks will make them pay dearly for that I'm sure).

There's also an awesome show at Don Pedro's tonight with Team Robespierre, Truman Peyote, Total Slacker, and more. There's supposed to be free Colt 45 at some point too but I don't k
now what time. It's $5 to get in the joint.
And if you're looking for something a little more mellow head over to Macri Park for Far Out where our pals Martin (Wild Yaks) and Julie G are teaming up for some DJ dance-a-rama.

Saturday Day Shows, CMJ 09.
The day shows today are sick. There's just too much to do. I'm skipping the Fader Fort, where I basically lived last year during CMJ, for the superior lineups of these 3 shows.
12:30-2:30: Brooklyn Vegan Day show at Pianos, free Bloody Marys if you get there when the doors open. BEAST, Moondoggies, and Surf City are supposed to play during that time frame.
2:30-5:15: Deli day show with free gourmet food. During this time frame they have Gunfight!, We Are Country Mice, Freelance Whales, Emanuel And The Fear, Drink Up Buttercup, Elizabeth & The Catapult, Local Natives. WOW!!! That's one hell of a lineup. By the way Freelance Whales are the best band I've seen during CMJ.
5:30-whenever: Impose day party at Don Pedros. Not sure who will still be playing this late but there's a shit ton of awesome bands playing this day party and it's on the way home. Overall this might be the best day show of CMJ 09, if you dig Brooklyn bands. You'll also get to see JEFF The Brotherhood, who destroyed at Piano's.
