Iconic hangouts

Williamsburg Brooklyn is noted as a popular location where hipsters either reside or enjoy visiting.  The pictures represented in this blog post are actual images from a party that a hipster band known as Japanthar played a music show on the bridge.  Hipsters attended the party on the Williamsburg bridge.  It is obvious that Japathar's decision to play on the bridge is to emphasize the iconography that the bridge has for the Hipster culture.  Furthermore the bridge acts as symbolism the hipster cultures from their most popular locations.  For example, the Bridge actually connects downtown East Village with Williamsburg.  It became a clear celebration of their artistic, trendy, independent culture.
