The Last One

This is it folks. The last Sunday Best of the summer, and who knows, possibly the last Sunday Best ever.
It's a been a real roller coaster ride this year. 1500 people on a glorious opening day followed by a tumultuous couple of months fighting to stay at BKLYN Yard/400 Carroll Street before the move to the court yard at Brooklyn Fireproof.
A few washed out days, a wind storm which nearly wiped out our sound system and many more amazing parties later we're here on Labor day weekend with Justin, Eamon and Doug taking it home as residents.
A big thanks to everyone who came out and partied with us this summer. We REALLY appreciate your support and we hope to see you out on the day for one last jam.
Who knows what 2011 will bring!
Eamon, Justin & Doug

Optimo vs. Mister Saturday Night

For almost thirteen years, at a place called the Sub Club in Glasgow, our special guests ran and played one of the funnest, most loved parties in the world. JG Wilkes and JD Twitch, the gents behind Optimo rarely toured together, especially on a Sunday. With the party's end in April, the duo have been able to do things that they hadn't been able to do before - like play our own, relatively new Sunday institution, something we'd been asking for since the first year Sunday Best started.
Here's what the fine folks at Flavorpill had to say about this Sunday's proceedings:
"Ever since Sunday Best announced their schedule months ago, this has been the date everyone has been waiting for. Quite simply, it's a historic chance to see Optimo, those grizzled Glaswegians JD Twitch and JG Wilkes, make a rare joint appearance in the US. It's a turning point for the duo, actually — since ending their legendary weekly club night after 13 years, Twitch and Wilkes are now free to roam both geographically and creatively. Judging by the five-hour recording of their monstrous final set (making the rounds online as "Optimogeddon," naturally), their tag team with Sunday Best residents Justin Carter and Eamon Harkin should be an awesomely bumpy ride. Basic Channel, Fleetwood Mac, and Throbbing Gristle over the course of one afternoon? Yes please! " - Anna Balkrishna

Heading Indoors
We're taking proceedings indoors to the gallery space at Brooklyn Fireproof today due to the inclement weather. There'll still be tacos, stiff drinks and comfy sofas to relax on. Doug and Eamon will be getting things going before a special live/DJ set from Italo Godfather Alexander Robotnick.
We'll see you later!
We'll see you later!
