QxBxRx Moving Back to BK + 4 Year Anniversary
Hey QxBxRx-ers!!! On January 8, 2011, QxBxRx (Queers, Beers & Rears, aka QBR) was shut down by the cops for being over capacity. Although disappointing for everyone who attended, for us, and the Cake Shop, it was great to see such a kick-ass turnout! For almost 4 years, we have rocked out in the Lower East Side in the basement of one of NYC's best indie music venues. We've had so many amazing local, national, and international performers hit the stage to support the DIY queer punk community. Our goal has and always will be to support awesome and new indie music, while creating a space for rowdy homos and their friends to converge. Many memories and many friendships have been made over the years because of this party, so we've decided that it's time for us to do something special together... We're Moving...Back to Brooklyn We’re stoked to announce that on Saturday, March 5th, QxBxRx will move to PUBLIC ASSEMBLY on North 6th St, between Wythe and Kent (off the L Bedford stop). Some of you may recall that QxBxRx originally started out in 2007 in Williamsburg as a weekly DJ party at Cyn Lounge, and that we moved to Cake Shop because we wanted a live experience at our weekly event. We are happy to be moving back only a few blocks from where we got our start. Save The Date: QxBxRx 4-Year Anniversary Bash, Sat, 3/5 We’re bringing QxBxRx to our new venue with a bang! Our opening night will feature special guests MAKING FRIENDZ, RAD PONY, KORDAN, PEOPLE AT PARTIES, and a late night performance by the lovely DARLINDA JUST DARLINDA. Resident QxBxRx DJs GO-KARFF, A.MARTINI and SIR LOINS will continue to spin a mix of punk, indie, glam, electronic and more. We will send out official details in the next couple of weeks, as we are taking February off. Some Facts About Our Move to Public Assembly
