Well this is a bit embarrassing. Apparently I need a copy editor because that guy I said played drums for Phoenix and was my new boyfriend? I had the wrong guy. Music pro Laura Leebove texted me today and was like, “Um… you were wrong about the drummer.” Apparently the drummer who played with Phoenix [...]

Missed Connections – In Pictures

My goodness. Gothamist just clued me in on the cutest little blog. Sophie Blackall draws up different posts from the “Missed Connections” section in New York’s Craigslist. She posts her illustrations with the original text from the “Missed Connections” post and I find them intriguing. If you’ve never perused that section, it’s very interesting: people [...]

(Photo by friend/music journo Laura Leebove) Life is just too good. I must admit that I spent a half hour googling my little heart out trying to find out WHO THE HELL was on drums for Phoenix Saturday night in Central Park because he just may be my new man. Indeed. I have never been [...]

Okay, enough abandoning my blog already. It’s a beautiful Saturday and tonight I am seeing Phoenix and Passion Pit in Central Park and I am beyond excited. I must admit that I don’t know too much about these two bands but from what I do know, I love. Like this song: Phoenix – 1901 This [...]

A lot of things happened last night which have put me in kind of a strange place today. I can tell you about the good things that happened though. Central Park; one of the greatest things about New York. Another great thing about this city is the free events. Last night I went a concert [...]
Fun at Mercury Lounge

I love the Mercury Lounge, it’s probably my favorite small venue that I’ve been to here. I saw Katy Perry, of all people, there over a year ago before she hit it big. And Thursday I got to see the band Fun, made up of some former members of The Format. I loved the Format [...]

Walked the Manhattan Bridge on Wednesday night and found a random thug who let me take pictures of him. Ha. He’s such a ham, he posed for a million pictures, most of which he put on his mean face to let us know how much of a hardass he is. But I got a little [...]
Bushwick Lofts

I finally went to Bushwick for the first time in my life last weekend. Now that my friend Laura lives there, my guess is I will be venturing that way a little more often. Her apartment is sweet. It’s a loft with three bedrooms, one bathroom, and a HUGE open space with a kitchen. And [...]
