I had no idea what a Bastille Festival was, or that French people ever came to party in Brooklyn… but it’s New York and everything is not only possible, but probable. Here are some photos from Smith Street’s 2009 Bastille Festival which included:
– The World’s 2nd largest Pentanque Tournamen
– Fine wine
– Skateboarding exhbitionanists sponsored by Homage (Skate Shop on Smith Street)
– The Bar Tabac hosting a classic- rock coverband after the festival. The bar was packed with drunk people dancing to Free- bird and Lay- Down Sally! It was awesome.
– and really loud Spanish Music emulating from Mexican Restaraunt Coco Rocco. (Don’t you love it when the Latin American’s and teen-age skateboarders take over the French Party)?
Who said the G train never lead to nothin’! Supposed to be more festivities on Bastille’s actual celebration day, this Tuesday.
