YO DOO MART + FAIRE

DOO IN DEVELOPMENT

2009-04-30T19:34:00.000-07:00

We're still trying to figure out how to best do the doo again, but we're not quite there yet. Stay tuned for details when we figure this thing out.

No April Yo Doo?

2009-03-29T11:11:00.001-07:00

It's true!

We're holding off until May for the next Yo Doo Mart + Faire. It's been a real crazy month around here. In the meantime, check out the new place - Bruar Falls in Williamsburg - and we'll see you in May, with what will hopefully be the biggest and best Doo yet.

"In the '50s, a time of postwar optimism and faith in science, there was Hi-Fi. In the '90s, an era of slackers and diminished expectations, there was Lo-Fi. In the '00s, a time of neanderthal government and outright contempt for the arts, there is Neg-Fi. A watershed moment in the history of art and music--some might say sub-nadir..." - Tom Moody
