LIC-Concerts-Performers

Sept. 22, 2013 By Christian Murray

The Long Island City concert series, a popular music event that has taken place at the Gantry Plaza State Park each Sunday this month, will be wrapping up its series this evening.

Tonight’s event begins at 5 pm and ends at 7:30pm. It will feature acclaimed pianists, opera singers and guitarists — as well as bands such as Mappa Mundi (an experimental band rooted in rock, folk and pop).

Many of the artists, who have performed throughout the series, are students of the Long Island City-based music school Sage Music.

The first two concerts drew crowds of between 700 and 800 people.

Twenty people indicted in Queens-based $4.6M vehicle theft ring after three-year probe: DA

Twenty individuals were indicted and variously charged in a wide-ranging scheme to steal cars in Queens, throughout New York City and its suburbs, following a three-year investigation by the Queens District Attorney’s Office, the NYPD, and the New York State Police dubbed “Operation Hellcat,” into the criminal enterprise based in Queens.
