Douglas Sherman is one of our favorite regulars here at the 'days. An integral part of New York's underground dance history as a member of the Loft and Joy families, he thinks about the entire experience of a party, from the sound to the music to the decor. He always has a lineup of extraordinary records, a mix of new music and underground classics that he plays from the heart rather from a prescribed playlist. He also brings in a team before each party to augment our room with an amazing array of balloons, and beyond that, he pays such close attention to the little details around sound that he can bring the nuances out in our system that almost no one else can. Come experience a master at work -- for free no less! Nowadays is an indoor and outdoor gathering place on the border of Bushwick and Ridgewood. We've got a full bar, a kitchen, a nice sound system, a wood dance floor and lots of trees and house plants. Most of the time, it's free to come to Nowadays, but we do have a cover for some of our nighttime events. If there's a cover but you're a little tight on dough, you can buy early bird tickets on RA, or RSVP for reduced entry on Fridays and Saturdays at http://nowadays.nyc/rsvp We want Nowadays to be a comfortable space for everyone. Please treat everyone with respect when you're here. If someone says or does anything to make you feel uncomfortable, let us know. All of our bartenders, security, managers, sound staff and door staff can help you. Also, for the sake of the vibe, please don't take pictures or use your phone on or around the dance floor. Thanks! And we look forward to seeing you soon.
