Brooklyn venue Dead Herring closes its doors

·

Another one bites the dust. Williamsburg DIY music venue Dead Herring shut their doors on January 27 after six years of . Popular for their eclectic variety of bands and $5 covers, Dead Herring featured acts ranging from Spectre Folk to Pop. 1280 and Reggie Watts to Kurt Braunohler. Apparently $5 a show a few times a month doesn’t quite cover the bills.

See? The gentrification due to people trying to live like their favorite TV characters does have negative consequences.
