Brooklyn Vegan is listing some of the summer concert lineups, so we thought we'd add to that list with some more information on the Seaport Music Festival. Hands down our favorite one in the city. Last year we spent many afterwork hours sitting on the pier, sipping wine, watching bands play...not to mention the amazing nautical backdrop. We caught Clap Your Hands Say Yeah there, and a couple of days later this video surfaced of one of the restaurant patrons dancing up a storm.
So get your dancin' flip flops on, avoid anyone with a video camera and mark these shows on your calender:
June 2 - Super Furry Animals
July 28 - Richard Hawley
August 4 - Hot Chip
Brooklyn Vegan has reported the following dates:
July 14 - Dave Alvin & The Guilty Men, Chatham County Line
August 18 - The Box Tops with Alex Chilton
The lineup is starting to shape up well! And we totally hear Ted Leo will be there again this year...rain or shine.
