Last Saturday’s Warm Up had a patriotic spirit complete with old-school dance beats, crowd surfing in a sea of red, white, and blue, and Nicky Siano’s “Return of Libby,” featuring Nicky himself in full Statue of Liberty garb. His reimagined constitution—allowing people the important rights of dancing and partying—seemed to take over the crowd, dancing right up to the start of the fireworks display in Long Island City. Other funky acts for the Fourth included Bobbito Garcia a.k.a. Kool Bob Love, Galcher Lustwerk b2b DJ Richard, Cut Copy DJs, and a live set from Virgo Four.

Be sure to join us and the Night Slugs crew next Saturday, July 11! Warm Up performers include Sheen, Helix, Despot (Live), Blaqstarr, Corbin (FKA Spooky Black) & Bobby Raps (Live), and Bok Bok!
