The Beautiful Ones perform a tribute to Prince

Brooklyn Bowl, 61 Wythe Avenue, Brooklyn

My Prince cover band, The Beautiful Ones, will be playing its first show in nearly a year. This will be the Irish wake approach to mourning the loss of my musical hero -- heavy on the dance jams, light on the eulogizing. Mr. Nelson would've wanted it that way. We'll be knocking out an hour-long set of classics, featuring a ten-piece ensemble that will do its best to blow the roof off. Tragedy, the (in)famous metal Bee Gees (and beyond) tribute band, follows us in what will surely be a sweaty, glittery, transcendent evening. Don't miss.
