The Creators Project

Awhile back I went to this excellent event put together by VICE mag and INTEL at MILK studios in manhattan: The Creators Project
great art, good music, free foood & booze all day...I mean, you couldn't walk into any room without seeing 2-3 open bars. friggin awesome! reportedly there were 4k people in attendance...it was packed.
got to see up-close performances by The Rapture and Interpol, along with Sleigh Bells (killer set complete with Slayer's South of Heaven intro) Gang Gang Dance, South Africa's Die Antwoord and even my ultimate boner (Kirsten Dunst) was in the same room watching M.I.A.
epic day!

Autumn Bowl's Skate Punk Bash

3 punk bands, 1 half pipe and 1 kidney shaped bowl, 40's, firecrackers, moshpit, flying beers, skate dudes...where is this? at the Autumn Bowl in Greenpoint of course.

It was a pretty wild nite packed with skate kids and a bunch of familiar faces in attendance...Vice, aNYthing, Neckface, Reciprocal skates, etc.
The bands Razor Tail, Bad Shit and The Goat- all killed it; specially Bad Shit with their hottie drummer chick in shorts and bra, bangin those drums pretty fucken hard and fast. Their singer with the mike duct taped pretty tight around his head was rather amusing to see, and am sure it proved to be a bitch to taking off.

Beer cans and bottles flying in and out of the pit, boards diving off the halp pipe into the pit and towards the band, smoky firecrakers popping in the midst of it all...rather hilarious and made sense at the same time. The vibe and place was just right for it. A rad nite for sure.

Vice wrote some stuff about it.

here are some pics

halloween wknd fun

this crazy little thing called Halloween came and went...shit was hella fun!
Hit the $250k VICE magazine anniversary halloween party here in brooklyn...wise choice, considering the damn rain
would only slow us down from getting to and from the city.
pics of the costumes will be uploaded later. In the meantime here are the BAD BRAINS shots.
oh and apparently the clusterfuck outside the warehouse with rain, people in line, bouncers and cops was not a fun way to spend halloween night...















then moved the party to some loft / rooftop party on Berry...pretty fun too!

dear VICE:

I couldn't thank you enough for that awesome post.
