Well obviously we at GofG are pretty big rock band fans, the game and going to see the professionals do what they do best… ROCK OUT. Over the weekend we got a chance to catch such actual professionals play a show. What What Where is a Brooklyn based combo who've been making noise for the past few years. Former Virginians turned NY hipsters make a noise so familiar yet different enough to make heads turn, feet move and fingers pop. Their music is a combination of the best stuff that's been popular in music for the last 15 or 20 years. The guitar riffage of rock, the back beat of dance, the staccato punctuation of rap and the ever so prized aesthetic of punk. These guys play around the city a lot in fact their next show is at the Crash Mansion April 18. Highly recommended.

Plovgh, the new online farmers market
Who knew that the farming world had a trend? Well, Mallory Sustick, a Brooklyn bartender, works like a dog to maintain, promote and advance the online farmer's market startup Plovgh that began after noticing a need for more local farm market distribution.

Just a few corrections--two of the band members are from Virginia; one was born and raised in the city. Only one lives in Brooklyn, while the other two live in Manhattan. Their studio is also in Manhattan. AND THEY ARE DEFINITELY WORTH CHECKING OUT!
