Jun/15

Who: Luna
What: Green Label Live at McCarren Park, Northside Festival
Where: McCarren Park, North Twelfth St., Lorimer St., and Manhattan Ave. between Bayard St. and Berry St. and Nassau Ave.
When: Thursday, June 11, free with RSVP, 7:30
Why: In February 2006, we caught one of Luna’s final farewell shows at Bowery Ballroom, as the too-cool-for-school indie band (when the word indie still meant something) called it quits on a stellar career that included such great understated and influential records as Lunapark and Penthouse. But now original shoegazers Dean Wareham, Britta Phillips, Sean Eden, and Lee Wall are back together again, and they’re playing a free show on June 11 in McCarren Park as part of the Northside Festival. The festival runs June 8-14 in venues all over Brooklyn’s north side, featuring film June 8-10, innovation speakers, panel discussions, and a trade-show expo June 11-12, music June 11-14, and art walks June 13-14; among the other bands performing on June 11 are Dead Leaf Echo and Monogold at Black Bear Bar, Lower Dens at the Music Hall of Williamsburg, Ringo Deathstarr at the Grand Victory, and Life Size Maps at Union Pool.
