Reverend Horton Heat at Brooklyn Bowl

Brooklyn Bowl

Williamsburg, Brooklyn

Texas psychobilly legends Reverend Horton Heat tear through a set at Brooklyn Bowl, with Russian surf-rockers Messer Chups opening.

Jim Heath's trio has spent decades fusing rockabilly, punk and country into a blistering live show built on upright bass slaps and hot-rod guitar. Messer Chups add horror-movie surf rock to the bill. If you like your nights out loud, fast and with a bowling lane a few steps from the stage, this is the one show in Williamsburg to catch.

What to expect

A standing crowd packed in front of the stage, bowling lanes humming behind it, and a bar and kitchen serving throughout the night. Messer Chups open with surf-rock twang before the Reverend's trio takes over. Expect plenty of dancing once the headliners kick in.

  • Bowling lane add-ons are sold separately and are not concert tickets
  • Brooklyn Bowl serves food from its kitchen during the show
