Inspired by this demented promotional video, we firmly resolved to attend the Bushwick Block Party at Roberta's yesterday. But then the clouds and drizzle descended, and we decided to go on a nap rampage, punctuated by pinball and shuffleboard at Lucky Dog, home of the most documented car fire in Brooklyn history. Fortunately, photographer Scott Lynch attended the block party in our stead. Please to enjoy a choice selection of his photographs from the festivities.
Did you attend the Bushwick Block Party? Is Neapolitan pizza still relevant? Are dog cones alt? Did you get screened for moles by Dr. Bobby Buka?
