Underground

Saturday was one of those super special and unexpected nights out. One of those that when you are on your way to the party you are still full from dinner and questioning why are you even going out in the first place, but when you get home and the sun is up everything feels just right. 

I was able to finally catch TICKLAH spin at The Lake, one of my favorite musicians in New York hands down. From his keyboard skills wtih Antibalas, to his work with Amy Winehouse, to his solo Dub record, he is just quality. The dirty reggae party at the lake is just like no other party. There are always friends to chill with, get fuck up really really cheaply and dance. After getting a fucking ticket for public urination at 3am on the emptiest street in bushwick (cops are everywhere), we went to see Dj Rolando at Mr. saturday. He played with Detroit attitude while our buddy Steve was at the light control at house of yes. We danced until 6 am. Today i was thinking... i realized most people at The Lake would probably not enjoy Dj Rolando or expensive, trendy dance parties and most people at Mr. Saturday would probably think the Lake sucks and the music is boring and the place is dirty and there is no coat check, ect. But i thoroughly enjoyed BOTH so much. And I know some people would too, and we are probably friends :-) ....TICKLAH and DJ ROLANDO are so awesomely different! Ahhh! great times!
