Shit Week continues: Majestic willow tree butchered on Eighth Street

An EV Grieve reader out walking his dog this morning was shocked to find that the majestic willow on Eighth Street near Avenue C....



... had been hacked down... seemingly overnight...





Per the reader: "maybe it was diseased, but it looked perfectly healthy to me."

Melanie just posted a photo of this willow at East Village Corner. In the comments I said that I loved this tree.

UPDATE:
A reader sends along another photo, noting that "it looks worse in the daylight."



Ugh.

Fucked Up to play a 12-hour show on the Bowery today

Brooklyn Vegan has all the details. The show, highlighting the release of the band's "The Chemistry of Common Life" record, starts at 2 at the Rogan store at the corner of Bowery and Bond. Anyway, hope the gang saves some gas for the Bowery Ballroom show tomorrow night.
