The year is 2007 and World War III has rendered New York an empty shell. The only survivors of the nuclear attack are residents of the Williamsburg waterfront who became immune to the nuclear waste due to years of exposure to the toxic sludge buried beneath their homes. Once an international Mecca for dance clubs, the city now only has one remaining disco, the Glasslands – where the interior space has been transformed to reflect the post-apocalyptic atmosphere outside, and the only music that remains are future-themed jams from the 1970s and early 1980s: intergalactic funk, space disco, and robotic electro. With an uncertain future, the inhabitants will party like it’s the end of the world.

Friday, June 29 New York Night Train and Live With Animals throw a ball for the survivors at Glasslands. The sonic artifacts of the misguided 20th Century vision of the future will be spun by Chris from Ghost Exits, Nick Ray from Viva l’American Death Ray Music, Dr. Wizard of the Earth, Sean from Stay High, and Jonathan from NewYorkNightTrain. The Marmaladies, Vashti and Carly from Golden Triangle will provide go go dancing. Short musical sets will be presented by Stu Spasm of Lubricated Goat, with his One-Legged Octopus and techno wizard Diako Diakoff. The space will be decorated and recreated by the Freestyle Art Association and Live with Animals. And the future lighting will be provided by Vietnam’s Ivan Sunshine. The admittance is only $3.

Be there or regret it throughout the uncertain quantity of hours and days that remain.
