Invited weeks ago, I attended a piano recital by fiancé reminder for Julian Lawrence Gargiulo; and Italian-born classically trained pianist living in New York. When I think of recitals, I go back to the days of elementary school, when the C-Pod would be hallowed out and filled with rows of chairs for supportive parents [...]
Last evening I went to the First Friday’s party at the Gugg. An evening gig starting around 6 and ending near 12 or 1 am. The last few times I’ve been there were great djs, musicians, to accompany the excellent exhibit. This evening everything fell flat. There was a significant line [...]

I just went to the Roger Waters show at MSG. As a fan of the Floyd, I was stoked I got a hook up on the ticket but to get a spot basically on stage was fantastic! Thank you MD! Check out some of the shots:

I went out to the last summer concert in Central Park for Gnarls Barkley headlining the Summer Stage concert series on Thursday. It was a perfect summer afternoon in the park, hardly a cloud and no humidity finally. I had picked up the tickets weeks before, not because of the hype surrounding “Crazy” [...]
Last night…., I was fortunate to get hooked up by a friend with tix to the first North American tour appearance for The Strokes, the band named best International Band at the Shockwaves NME Awards 2006 last month in London - Thank you Kris!. Wed night was the first of three shows at the [...]
2002 kicked off the start of the Smokin Grooves tour in Nor Cal. The show was one of this years biggest hip hop tours, starting out a lil rocky with this first show at Shoreline in Mountain View, CA. The show was bangin’ all the way through to the explosive finale. J5 [...]
