We’ve already professed our love and admiration for Brooklyn Bowl when we named it as our favorite New York City music venue. The gastropub-bowling alley-concert venue is again proving that it’s one of the more forward thinking venues out there as they’ve just launched their very own iPhone App which will allow users to “check out what’s coming up at Brooklyn Bowl, buy tickets, email events to friends, share events on Facebook and Twitter, and even wave a virtual lighter at all your favorite shows.”
As an added bonus the venue is offering free entry to the Bowl if you are one of the first 50 people to show your Brooklyn Bowl iPhone app at the door – the offer ends tomorrow night, so download and head on over!

Finally, as the 2010 Major League Baseball regular season comes an end this weekend and baseball fans around the country begin to gear up for the playoffs, fans of the AL Central winning Minnesota Twins will have a new indie-rock fight song called Don’t Call Them The Twinkies to get them amped up as they try and make a run at a third World Series title. The tune was penned by Minneapolis native and hardcore Twins fan Craig Finn, by request, for The Baseball Project’s new album, which is due out next year. The Hold Steady front man’s ode name checks 8 Minnesota cities, 2 neighborhoods, 2 streets, and 9 Twins players. Give it a listen…
