Tomorrow (Sunday, March 19), Matana Roberts plays a solo saxophone gig on the Gowanus Canal -- literally in a boat floating on the Gowanus, "the only body of water in the world that is 90 percent guns" (-J. Lethem). The boat in question is the Empty Vessel, a WWII Navy Rescue boat transformed into a art space. Boarding is from the west side of 1st Street, one block south of the Carroll Street Bridge (see here).
Matana will be playing improvised music based on her favorite Baroque composers. She hits at 3 PM Sunday - admission is by donation.
