Jewltide in Brooklyn

Tomer Yosef, mad MC of Balkan Beat Box

Who says we New York City Jews have to go to Manhattan to have a good time on Christmas Eve? Last night I went to JDub's Jewltide at Southpaw here in Park Slope, Brooklyn, where Balkan Beat Box rocked the house with their gut-quaking world beats. These guys put on a fantastic show, and the energy in the club was intense.

If you haven't heard Balkan Beat Box yet, I recommend you listen to their tracks online. Make sure you have plenty of headroom when the music starts, because you are going to be hopping in no time.
