Here Comes The Story of the Hurricane


August. What a wash. As you probably figured, this weekend’s festivities are no-gos. There’s the hurricane, yes, but there’s no way you could get to us. Now that the MTA is shutting down everything at noon tomorrow AND all the car companies that we’ve called have said that they’re closing up shop, you’d have to walk, and walking in the wind and the rain is a bummer.

The good news, though, is that we’ve already got makeup dates scheduled. Pépé Bradock will play Mister Saturday Night at 12-turn-13 on September 17, and Optimo will join us for a special nighttime party after the final Mister Sunday of the season next Sunday night. We’ll have info about both of those parties soon, but for now, go to the grocery store, and buy some milk and eggs, because when Irene hits, you’re gonna want some breakfast.

Gowanus Grove

Welcome to Gowanus Grove, a little slice of paradise in the middle of industrial Brooklyn. Situated on the border of Carroll Gardens and Gowanus, the site has been a long-time home for cultural events (once as the home of Issue Project Room and then of BKLYN Yard), its bucolic setting the perfect respite from the concrete and steel that surrounds it.

Gowanus Grove is located at 400 Carroll Street between Bond and Nevins in Brooklyn. To get there, you can take the F or G train to Carroll Street. Mister Sunday resides at Gowanus Grove every Sunday starting on May 29, 2011.

Greg Wilson Live From The Mister

Greg Wilson has kindly, and very swiftly, posted his mix from last Saturday’s party. Here it is. Enjoy!


Next Up, Mister Saturday and Mister S


After a two-floored New Year’s Eve party and a collaboration with Spank, Mister Saturday Night heads back to the basics: one dancefloor, two residents, one guest and a real nice set of speakers. We love a big to-do, but simplicity is golden.

Our guest is none other than Omar S, who, making his third showing at MSN, will become our most frequent musical companion. It’s no wonder why we’ve asked him back as often as we have. In addition to consistently producing tracks that make their way into Justin and Eamon’s sets (note the two appearances on their NYE mix), he’s a phenomenal DJ, a master of dancefloor hypnosis.

This will also be the last time that Eamon and Justin play together in the home loft for a couple months. Justin’s headed off to Berlin for February, March and April (see the note at the bottom), and their only joint gigs for a while will be in Europe. That makes this a going-away party of sorts, and they’ll definitely be pulling out the stops to make it right.

Everything else that usually makes it special will be in effect as well, with a reasonably priced bar run by folks with a sweet demeanor, free beer from 10pm to 11pm, a door staff that’s genteel and a space that feels like home. It’s always good to be here.

Advance tickets are here. Party details are over in ‘Our Next Party’ section on your right.

note. To be clear, Justin’s not pulling an escape from New York/everything’s better in Berlin move… New York beats Berlin every Mister Saturday Night of the year as far as he’s concerned. It’s just a work thing.

Brian Eno Jamming In The Studio


We’ve just stumbled upon seven videos of Brian Eno improvising in the studio with Leo Abrahams and Jon Hopkins, who both collaborated on his recent Warp release, Small Craft On A Milk Sea. This is one of them. If you want to see them all, check here.
