Nothing to do this weekend? Then join me in heading over to The Lake in Bushwick, Brooklyn for Punky Reggae Fest, a 2-day festival highlighting a fantastically diverse line-up of ska and reggae bands and DJ's who are showcasing all the great ska bands and musicians who call New York City home.

The second night on Saturday January 22nd features: Desekilibrio, Obamanation, The Hard Times, Yo! Scunt, The Bluebeats, The Facts and The Forthrights featuring Jeremy Pena.
And if that's not enough ska entertainment for you, the festival features some of the best NYC-based ska and reggae DJ’s including Crazy Baldhead Sound System (AKA: Agent Jay from The Slackers), Deadly Dragon, Shockwave, Hagler, Rudies Don’t Care and Al Paragus
