Fresh off the Unabridged Weekender, As You Like It returns with the second edition of its Backyard BBQ series, featuring a very special guest: Theo Parrish (open to close). “Theo is the creative heartbeat of Detroit,” says As You Like It founder Jeremy Bispo. “His DIY ethos and cultural long view represent the past, present, and future.” Oakland’s own SMARTBOMB brings together a couple of old AYLI friends and a host of new ones for a full takeover of the Universe Room. At the Unabridged Backyard BBQ (venue The Loom at 2220 Livingston St, Oakland, CA 94606), Theo Parrish delivers more than a set, he offers a journey: deep, unpredictable, and unapologetically free. Sonny’s NVR OVR BBQ returns with a menu inspired by classic Midwest backyard cookouts. DANCE YOUR HISTORY, DANCE YOUR STORY, DANCE YOUR WAY HOME.
