// WIN FREE TIX TO THE FUNKY METERS //
Tuesday, September 13 (w/ Livingston Leo)
Wednesday, September 14 (w/ Turkuaz)
Thursday, September 15 (followed by DJ ?uestlove)
The funky METERS. You know ‘em as Art Neville & George Porter Jr. (from the original Meters) + New Orleans native Brian Stoltz on guitar, and Russe1l Batiste Jr. on drums. Their trademark sound blends funk, blues, and dance grooves with a New Orleans vibe.
Now, if you know Brooklyn Bowl, you know there’s nowhere better to get your N’AWLINS on. We got Blue Ribbon fried chicken, fried catfish, muffalettas, po’ boys, and a very deadly Bourbon St. Shake with NUTELLA. Know how good that all tastes with a side of NOLA funk and bowling? Real, real good.
We’ve got 2 free tix to give away to see the funky METERS on the night of your choice. See below for how to enter on Twitter or Facebook.
