LIC (the bar) gives LIC (the neighborhood) a summer-sunday treat every week: a band in the afternoon in their very charming back yard, in front of the lovely willows they planted on that street.





Tonight they had Coppersonic, a bluegrassy rock outfit that played lots of all-USA covers and dressed like they was from Austin. Great band really. I wish they had played LICNYC's HS prom.





The interesting thing (as on all LIC outings) was: who is the scene, these days? Or, how many Mets fans in the haus? Answer: about 7, or half the haus.





Three off-duty firemen types, two tattooed-pierced-skinny 'new Queens' tough guys, one longer haired introverted rocker, another classic contempo-Queens couple (mets shirt on her, biceps and earring on him), one preppy crew team patron saint in his polo shirt with his fashion-forward young daughter (works on Madison Ave?), three alternayuppies (collared shirts, thoughtful facial hair), and about three rockers' groupies who were manning the CD table. And LICNYC w/ dog. Pretty much LIC (the scene) circa 2006 Summer.





The bbq is great. Got to check it out one Sunday.
