Inspiration from 1956

Surely you have heard of this Esquire Magazine article about style in the last 80 or so years. Right? By no means do I want to really promote esquire to much but here is the link to the images.

Some of the outfits are wild but this outfit that is supposed to represent style in 1956 stuck out to me. I love it. I may try to get someone to make me a jacket like this for my wedding or maybe the reception. How suave. Until next time...

Never is not as good as later.....

When I said that i would update the blog Monday, I didnt mean this one, but hey, never is worst than later. I did go to PS1, but guess what happened? I was taking pictures with my phone and my battery was dying by the time I got there. That sucks. I only got a few bad pictures and no good ones.

The event was great though. I went alone which was wack but whatever. It was nice to concentrate on the music bymyself. I got there around 5, an hour or so after things started and Metro Area was DJing. That was crazy, I am sure that the two of them are great DJs together but Morgan Geist was ODing when he came on. I wasn't dancing because I was on the side bobbing my head trying to look cool and mysterious since I was alone but my head was definitely bobbing harder when he was playing songs. Oh, and by the way, I never heard any of the songs they played; they were all disco, all hot. Then at around 6:30 6:45 Kelley Polar came out. He killed it. The thing was, as time went on the place got PACKED. The crowd was very eclectic. All sorts of people were there. There seemed to be a punk presence there which I though was cool, then alotta hipsters n shit. I was standing next to this older dude with a big beard who seemed cool. I'm a shy guy though. I kinda wanted to say watup to him and I bet you he wanted to say watup to me too. We never ended up making it happen though.

I was about to leave because my feet were getting tired and I didnt have that much sleep then he played Vocalise so I stayed for a couple more minutes. Look at the few pics I did end up taking,

Then after this, I went home and slept for a couple hours, woke up and went to Andrew's party. That was packed too. I couldn't even get a drink from the bar. I had to hang to the side. Last week was a crazy one. I will keep you updated.

The unGodly Hours

There is a thin line between the early morning and the ungodly hours of 4 5 and 6 in the morning. I decided I would work this Saturday and I can tell it will be a crazy day. Already, I took the dollar cab and saw 4 police cars in front of Temptations in Brooklyn and plus look at the jeans I saw this morning on the train (not really jeans but I like to call all pants jeans. Look at those green spikes, crazy right?).

Im not sure I shouldve come in this morning. The flowers in the office were sending me a bad message. Look, they are dying

Anyway, today is looking to be a packed one. I am working until 4 then going straight to ps 1. Look at my confirmation

But as long as the Tomcats, the Alligator Bros ( AKA My bros and Jake) are there, things are sure to be a blast. I will let you know how it goes Monday and try to take some more pics of those unGodly hours early Sunday morning (slash Sat Night).

The Summer

Oh how we love the summer. My summer is basically over today. But not quite, Here are some pictures from my summer. I hung out with Lindz and did a lot of other stuff. I mostly worked but did a whole lot more. Here are just a few with more to come. Next week I will put up some pictures from my weekend. It may be wild. We may go back to that Santos party or just hang out but on Saturday I will be going to see the environ crew at PS1 in Queens. Then later that night will be Andrews B-Day bash. We will see.

Check the link for a funny movie. Lindsay showed me. Funny enough we saw Vashtie last friday at the Party she hosts at Santos.

The end of the video is funny when kid cudi comes back when he is not supposed to.
