@jodyavirgan If you’re into watching a giant magnetic claw grapple scrap metal while big barge boats pass by, then the Lowe’s parking lot under the Prospect Expressway in Brooklyn is for you. Also @fandfpizza is nearby
The event was televised throughout Europe. That evening the Federal Aviation Agency received 27 inquiries from arriving airplane pilots wondering what they had just flew over that was so wild and bizarre in the middle of nowhere.
Pre-internet history: on this day Sept 30, 1995, the historic Desert Move rave was held 26 miles outside of Las Vegas with artists like @joshwink1, @KEoKiKeOkiKEoKi , @steveloria and more. It paved the way for the EDM scene to exist as we know it. 🧵
Producers erected 60 foot lighting towers with lasers, strobes, gobos, and strong sound systems. All of it interacting with the landscape. There was a hot air balloon at sunrise.
@realEstateTrent Go inside a big Lowe’s or Home Depot and mess with all the drills and sit on lawn mowers. Bonus tip: the Lowe’s next to Gowanus in bklyn has cool big construction barges moving past
@measuredworks @Amtrak@AmtrakConnects@AmtrakNECAlerts The ‘secret’ of the Red Caps is so clutch I’m almost afraid to share it. Im on Amtrak at this very moment and just left NYP stress free.
@measuredworks @Amtrak@AmtrakConnects@AmtrakNECAlerts This tip will change how you ride Amtrak: use the Red Cap service at major stations. You get pre-board and baggage assistance. It’s free to anyone. Just tip the Red Cap person well.
@pitchfork Kurdt would have hated and disowned the Unplugged album if he was alive today. It’s supermarket background music. Bland, safe, corporate, ick
@SACarrow@UrbanLandRent Yea I was in junior high school when they tore Sunnyside down. I remember the old stadium. I remember looking out the window at the wild party bars along that avenue.
