Rock on! Disaster doesn’t dampen band’s jam

public-access-tv-2016-09-29-v01vilprint_webwebPublic Access T.V. rocked out on E. Seventh St. between Third and Second Aves. on Sat., Sept. 17, as part of the Cooper Square Commitee’s fundraising street fair. The band and their manager all lived in 123 Second Ave., which was destroyed in the gas explosion of March 2015. The band luckily was on tour in Los Angeles when the catastrophe occurred. They are still living in the neighborhood, thanks to the Cooper Square Committee, which found them housing. Anyway, the band — which sounds slightly reminiscent of The Strokes and classic punk rockers — definitely got the crowd grooving and moving. They’re good!  Photo by Tequila Minsky
