I can’t tell you the last time I was as excited about seeing a band live as I am about seeing The Budos Band tomorrow night. I’ve been looking for an opportunity to see them for years now and never managed to find one. They haven’t even played at one of the countless festivals I’ve attended since I first discovered them. Well, tomorrow night that dream is finally coming true and I only have to drive ten minutes from my house to get there! The thirteen-piece “Afro Soul” band from Staten Island is going to put on what will no doubt be the biggest party of the summer. They’ll be joined by local favorites Black Carl and Hot Birds and the Chili Sauce, along with DJ Seduce on the ones and twos.

The party is happening at The Sail Inn and showtime is listed as 7:30. I wanted to point that out because I know you’re probably planning on showing up late, as we all know shows rarely ever start on time. However, due to the noise curfew for the outside stage, you really want to show up on time if you’re interested in catching the opening acts. Tickets are $14 at the door and make sure to bring your dancing shoes, as you’re not going to be able to stand still.

Since I know a lot of you are going to want to keep the party going long after this show lets out, here’s a nearby dance night that should satisfy all your carnal desires. DJ Epidemic and guests in the mix all night.
