I'm a fan of the Powerstation too - I saw The Shins do a show there that literally changed my mind on my music tastes; Rise Against blew me away. One of my favourite shows there: Ben Folds on Paper Planes request tour.
Havent yet made it to The Powerstation - now that I've moved up the motu, it's much more accessible that it previously was so hopefully ill make it there soon.
That article you shared from the new yorker rocks. The opening para cut so deep to "One intractable flaw of technological devices: they never actually update overnight as promised." haha. Such a great find - thanks for sharing.
I'm writing this comment before reading the Song Of The Summer link and predicting its Kendrick Lamar's "Not Like Us".
Couldn’t be anything else really…

(My wife got into a fight at that Shins show oops)
WHAAAAAT?! But the Shins are so joyful!
I think you need to elaborate ... (with her consent, of course)
Haha I’ll ask her if she’s up for it :/

You have to go! Great view from every angle, usually very good sound, such a great vibe when it’s full … ahh it’s just the bestest…
Looks like i might just get my excuse to smash it - Less Than Jake are playing there in October!
Who doesn't love a little mystery, right? 👏
I tried my best not to ruin that :/
The very model of discretion.
That Lorde show at The Powerstation really was something else.
It's an absolute gem of a venue.
Nothing better than a stadium-sized show inside a tiny venue eh?
