My Father's Place ?


Fellow Long Islanders.......who knows anything about the new My Father's Place ? I see the one listed in the Roslyn Hotel but apparently there's another site in Bellmore .  What first caught my eye was a listing for 
the Blasters at MFP in Bellmore,in August. I googled but the show comes up under " Bands In Town " and I can't find any more info about the venue. Anyone been to a show there ?
           and FWIW, at the Roslyn site, McCoy Tyner will be there August 3rd.......$ 75 seats.
I won't launch into any My Father's Place nostalgia but I did see some good shows..... and survived the somewhat deathtrap seating arrangements.

Very cool. I never knew LI had a history of such important bands, but it was before my time. I no longer live in the area but very pleased to see MFP back in a big way.
And I remember how loud Zebra was in those small clubs. I used to see them when they were a cover band based in LI.
The Fillmore East didn’t last very long, but is an important part of NYC music history.
The Palladium theater on 14th St. was one of my favorite venues. Some very historic shows happened there including Bruce Springsteen appearing for a week in 1976.
Such a shame that this historic building was converted into a tacky trendy disco.

It blows my mind that My Father’s Place was booking many legendary acts out on LI.
