Slide Show: On Your Radar
Slideshow: Round and Round at Radar in SoDo
The Radar space is huge. Airplane hangers come to mind. But outfitted as it is, with retro furnishings and old school beauty parlor stuff, it feels super homey in a Brooklyn kind of way.
By the end of the month, about ten stylists will work to old soul and 60s garage rock soundtracks full time.
Betsy’s bandmate fashioned old speaker cabinets into beauty supply units for each station; flip ‘em around and they’re full of gels and brushes and blowdryers and scissors.
Good luck getting to your chair without picking up a Curtis Mayfield LP or some Brit rock rarity
Also: Pinball. More games from the wayback years are on their way.
The supply of 60s duds is ripe for summer’s barbecues and go-go parties
Bands and other live stuff will find their time and place after hours at the back of Radar’s long skinny spot; Nice Smile played the shop’s pre-opening bash.
