As with every acoustic bbq we have had in the past, there is a concept beyond just a nice afternoon by the water, with music. It's a rare opportunity for many bands from very different branches of the "scene" to play on the same bill. There is no amplification and no electricity - which forces each musician to deconstruct what they do. Also, because the event is unamplified, peaceful, and non-commercial we feel strongly that there is no need for permits of any kind. We are neither making loud noise nor selling anything - we are simply gathering peacefully on public property. There is a challenge here to the authorities though - and even though there is nothing offensive about this gathering, that does not mean that some authority figure won't still possibly want to "shut it down." We believe they will have a very difficult time finding a rational reason to do so.
In the event that we are unable to continue festivities on River St behind Monster Island, we will relocate to Grand Ferry Park (River St at Grand St). If the turnout is too great to be contained at Grand Ferry Park, we will instead relocate to the NW corner of East River State Park, right on the water (entrance on Kent Ave and North 8th St).
