Sonic Youth will play the last ever show at Brooklyn's McCarren Park Pool on Aug. 30, with special guests to be announced. Tickets go on sale Friday (July 25) via Ticketmaster, with proceeds to benefit the Open Space Alliance.
The pool, which opened in 1936 but was closed in 1984, has been hosting shows since the summer of 2006. Construction is set to begin later this year on returning the space to a pool. In winter, some space will be converted into an ice-skating rink.
