Rough Trade

After your day on-and-off the L train, end your night at Brooklyn’s Rough Trade. Check out which artist or band is playing, and be sure to get your tickets in advance. Although the performers aren’t always super popular, they’ll be on your radar soon enough. Whether it’s an indie band or an up-and-coming rapper, you’ll be sure to see a great show.

While you wait for the concert to start, grab a drink and flip through old vinyls in the front of the concert venue — because who doesn’t like to shop and snag some obscure records before seeing a band shred it on stage? With a wide array of vinyl and CDs, the front of Rough Trade is sure to remind you of the glory days before streaming services.
