This was my first show. It was in a paved lot adjacent to McCarren Park that was housing the Northside Music Festival that year. For whatever reason, this show was free (maybe Northside was always free?) and included an opening set by Gizz, another band with Mac Demarco on bass, and the Oh Sees. We got there early because we wanted to see Gizz mainly because the name was so funny. We had never heard any of their stuff. But my friend had a freezer bag full of canabis cookies that we had acquired from a former cancer patient who had recently gone into remission - so they were some strong ass cookies. Anyways, the day gets a little fuzzy but Gizzard rocked hard, although I remember us thinking that they were a bit repetitive (an aspect of their music that I now appreciate). Anyways, it was one of those perfect days in Brooklyn - great weather, great tunes, great edibles, and great friends. We must have given out half of the bag of cookies. The crowd was feeling it. This show has become one of "those shows" that I reference when talking about "the good ole days." Shows like that don't just happen in NYC anymore. It harkened back to the beloved McCarren Park Pool days. Anyways, I didn't see Gizz again until Baby's in 2016 when the ceiling was collapsing on Stu. The band's sound was sticky raw and fierce back then. The vids of this show prove it.
