NYC: go to Chinatown!
Just when the CMJ marathon has lower Manhattan in a death grip, MeanRed & friends are sneaking off to Chinatown, celebrating the best underground sounds in a dim sum restaurant under the Manhattan Bridge. They’re kidnapping the music you thought you knew, kidnapping the expectations you may have had, & bringing the whole thing with them on a voyage to the place where East meets Best.
Head over to Chinatown for a 3-day MeanRed marathon at 88 Palace — good music, gold dragons, red wallpaper, pretty people, pork buns. They are passing dim sum dishes throughout the night, serving up drink specials when you need it most, & putting on the best & brightest of NYC.
Who’s gonna be there…
