77% on 7/7 and Acoustic Soul @ The Way Station

Live Music: July 7, 2015, 8pm-12am, The Way Station, 683 Washington Ave, BK, http://waystationbk.blogspot.com/ $5 suggested donation

According to The White House, full-time working women earn just 77 cents for every dollar a man earns. That’s some shameful shit. So The Way Station is going to do something about it. On July 7th, or 7/7, this dubious honor will be recognized by charging all women 77% of what they owe, all night long. Your tab is $30? You pay $23. Want a $9 single malt Scotch? It’s only $7. And all $7 tap beer will be just $5. Let’s level the playing field, even if it is just for one night. Women deserve better. Recognizing this discrepancy is just a start.

That same night, The Way Station presents our first Acoustic Soul Night. Some of Brooklyn’s best soul, R&B and funk will be coming at you stripped down and unplugged. So spend like you’re making what a man makes. And soak in some Acoustic Soul at The Way Station on Tuesday, July 7th, 2015.
