Bronx’s Music Night Jams in Fordham

Fordham rocked last night with the Bronx’s Music Night, riffing NYC’s spring at a University Avenue lot. Guitarist Tariq Evans played blues as 200 grooved, a $10 ticket bash of strings. It’s borough tunes—pure BX vibe, amps hot. A kid banged a beat; a pro sang loud. ‘Bronx plays—this is it,’ Evans says, tuning pegs. The room turned stage.

The night’s fresh—April 3’s start, it tripled since RSVPs, packing seats by 7 p.m. Evans, a Mott Haven picker; last night’s crowd hit max—chords rang. A latecomer nabbed a spot; lights flashed—NYC grit glowed. Runs one night—music ruled. #BronxMusic trended; Queens wants a riff.

Some griped—’Too loud,’ sniped a grump, dodging sound. Amp buzzed—fixed quick; vibes held. A rival’s pitching a Soundview jam, splitting strings. Still, 300 stayed—tunes reigned. Fordham’s never jammed so bold.

Evans hints at a monthly run, maybe a park if spring bites. ‘NYC’s beat—this drives it,’ he says, packing gear. The night’s a Bronx win—grit meets groove. It’s a music rush; catch the next. Bring a chair—chords call.
