Photos: Spank Rock / YACHT / The Cool Kids / Flosstradamus & Kid Sister [Brooklyn, NY; 08/19/07]
Photos by Jason BergmanA little rain couldn't dampen party spirits at Brooklyn's McCarren Park Pool, which became Earth's center of hipster gravity yesterday afternoon as Spank Rock, Kid Sister and Flosstradamus, YACHT, the Cool Kids, and Ghostland Observatory took turns making kids' rumps twirl in time with their umbrellas.
This latest Pool Party also played host to the usual dodgeball tournament and all sorts of other extra-musical fare. Scope the performers' other dates and more photos below.
