The Black Lips are kind of like a traveling circus made up of rowdy musicians. You never know what to expect when they roll into town, but you’re pretty certain they’ll break a lot of stuff and sleep with your sister before they leave. This past Sunday, the Georgia rockers brought some chaos to the pool, along with King Khan and his Shrines. Deerhunter didn’t really destroy/break/throw anything, but that doesn’t mean their set was any less impressive. More photos after the jump.

Also, today is the 8/8/08 Boadrum, so you know, go to that.

Our July 6th Pool Party line-up will be announced very soon…LIKE RIGHT NOW:

Rock and roll legend Ronnie Spector has been added to our already diverse summer lineup. Joining Ronnie will be The Rabbit Factory Soul Revue with Southern Soul icons Ralph “Soul” Jackson & Roscoe Robinson, Herman Hitson and Wiley and the Checkmates. You certainly do not want to miss this Rock and Soul Dance Party, and sure-to-be-historic moment at JellyNYC’s Pool Parties!

Let’s announce July 13th, too - OK!? Matt + Kim and The Whip will perform with another special guest TBA. Go watch super-fun videos of Matt + Kim at SXSW on their website!

We’ve already announced Black Lips and Deerhunter for August 3rd, but then we went ahead and just added King Khan + His Shrines and Tall Firs to the bill!

While we’re at it, Aesop Rock and Panther have just been added to our August 17th show! Watch Aesop Rock’s video for ‘Pigs’ here, featuring the artwork of Jeremy Fish.
