Starboard Hudson

Unique party venue, a decommissioned lightship that was salvaged from the bottom of the Chesapeake Bay. Part of the fun is just wandering around the rusted interior of the ship. At least in January, people were dressed in American Apparel and plaid shirts (it is not a good idea to wear heels because the floor is sometimes grated). The music mostly matched the audience’s style. Admission was only $ 12.
The downside was the DJ who spins between acts (he played the Taio Cruz Dynamite song every break multiple times), and during performances, the higher frequencies were sometimes so loud that it was painful.
