Malt liquor and hipster beer empties at the Crystal Antlers show in Williamsburg last night.
In the city that never sleeps during CMJ, a million gigs pass you by and you’re powerless to do anything about it. That’s why you have to pick and choose a venue and pretty much stay there. We’ve had two full days so far and my highlights have been Fanfarlo, Suckers and Crystal Antlers.
Tonight sees the Irish bands doing their thing at The Bowery Poetry Club. If you can’t make it, you can stream it here. Then, tomorrow night – Chromeo, Solid Gold, Holy Ghost!, Theophilus London and Amazing Baby in a bowling alley is where I’m headed for the night. Proper report later, In the meantime, you can follow my moves at CMJ via Twitter.
LATFH refers to Look at This Fucking Hipster. I saw about a thousand hipsters yesterday.

did you have any of that Colt 45 shit or Pabst Blue ribbon? I’d say it’s evilllll
Solid Gold are playing too?! I can’t remember the last time I was this jealous…
Ha- google LATFH and Beans to get one of their Dan Deacon pics- hilarious!
I think that only hipsters drink Pabst Blue Ribbon and Colt 45 to prove how much of a hipster they are- even poor college students wouldn’t touch that stuff…as Adam says…its evilllll! They must have some sort of genetic anomaly that lets them get it down without the gag reflex.
Ohhhh Fanfarlo – very jealous – I might have to listen to them now, enjoy Chromeo. Look at that fucking hipster… very funny indeed

Pablo is awesome man!! :d
awesome post! and I really dig your site. please check out my music blog when you have a chance http://www.deftune.com thanks! keep it up!
everyone pokes fun at hipsters, but no one is ever prepared to admit they are one…even if they so obviously move in the same circles. it’s funny, the people i know who give out about “hipsters” the most would be among the first i would suggest belong to that classification.
and pbr is fine, it’s a hell of a lot better than most of the draught beer available in the states, and its more than likely the cheapest fucking thing in the bar – why wouldn’t you fucking drink it? afraid of looking like a hipster? what does that make that person then who’s afraid to drink something for looking a certain way?
