Summer hours


As you may have noticed, blogging has been a little slow and thin around here over the last month. Cyrus and I are both laboring under multiple writing deadlines and will continue to post when we can. In the meantime, we’ll try to offer shorter posts directing you to stuff you may have missed elsewhere.

For instance, I somehow missed the Bowery Boys’ podcast on CBGB at the end of May. If you missed it too, take the chance to catch up now! It’s an especially appropriate one for me, given that I’m spending the second half of the summer writing about the Television LP Marquee Moon. See you soon!

No, not the B’hoys, and not the early 20c stage and film crew variously known as Dead End Kids, Little Tough Guys, East Side Kids, and Bowery Boys (pictured above).

I’m talking about the fantastic NYC history blog featuring weekly podcasts on neighborhood history. The most recent one features the Meatpacking District.

Who are these guys, and how do they have so much time for quality blogging like this? I’m green with envy; in any case, we’ve added them to the “Keys to the City” links at right.
