An exhaustive guide to the sounds of summer for anyone who’s even slightly interested in seeing live music
By Staff I don’t go to the city’s great parks nearly enough. Where can I go for some grass time and a show?
Well, your two main options are the gold standards of summer shows: SummerStage and Celebrate Brooklyn.
SummerStage, taking place from June 7 through Sept. 2, strikes its usual eclectic balance of genres and locations with park shows in all five boroughs. Of course, its biggest concerts take place at Central Park’s Rumsey Playfield. Performers include Florence and the Machine, Lykke Li, Twin Shadow, Cults, Rakim, EPMD, Wiz Khalifa, Reggie Watts, jazz legend Roy Ayers, Wavves, Talib Kweli, Milagres, Nas & Damian Marley, The Sugarhill Gang, Ryan Leslie, The Budos Band, Kool Moe Dee and Ozomatli. 05/25/11 >> go there
