My Bollywood Dreams Come True Tonight at Beloved! (4/23)

Last night (out of nowhere!) I dreamt about the final scene in Slumdog Millionaire, when the entire cast breaks out into an amazing dance routine – and the best part – I was dancing with them. (I really dreamt this. I have no idea why.)

This morning I saw a new event on our Greenpointers calendar…

Himanshu Suri, of the late Das Racist, is spinning ’60s and ’70s Bollywood vinyl at Beloved (674 Manhattan Ave) tonight, Tuesday April 23, 2013 from 7-11pm!

Greenpoint, you always make my dreams come true!
