Every show starts with the ’70s! We’ll rediscover forgotten rockers, revisit unfairly maligned disco beats and replay power-pop favorites. Next: plenty of new releases, occasional live bands and more. Don’t let the nickname confuse you.

I think that says it all.
Still can't figure out where in Brooklyn they live. But if I see a dude with a vest on...

@Jam-- er, I mean, Cosmoptina: I am going to be home for Halloween. But I agree, that Cake Shop show does sound like a good one.
