This looks like a fun one...
I haven't seen Oxford Collapse but keep reading great reviews. The band is playing a free fest on Bedford Avenue in Williamsburg next Thursday. Also on the bill are Best Fwends and Cheesburger.
Bedford Ave (between 7th and 8th) will be blocked off for this fest and the show runs from 6PM - 10PM.
Here are some details on the Make Music New York festival:
Make Music New York is a new live, free musical celebration across the city that will take place for the first time on June 21, 2007.
For one day, public spaces throughout the five boroughs (sidewalks, parks, community gardens, and more) will become impromptu musical stages, dance floors, and social meeting points. Thousands of amateur musicians, in every genre, will be able to play on the sidewalks for the biggest crowdsof their lives. Professional musicians will be able to attract new audiences, who will come out from under their headphones to hear unfamiliar groups risk-free. And everyone will be invited to sing along and enjoy the first day of summer.
