Hello New York City,
Is Winter ever coming? It's almost the beginning of Spring which means our busy season is right around the corner and boy do we have some special stuff in store for you that we have been working on all "Winter". Please look above and SAVE THE DATE!!! Thursday March 29th, SHAW Promotion and Harley Davidson of NYC invite you to a very special party for the unveiling of the new Harley Davidson of NYC custom motorcycles. Andrew W. K.
will be hosting as your master of ceremony along with our friend DJ Josh Madden
behind the decks plus much much more! A full lineup announcement is coming soon so please save the date. We want to see EVERYONE there!!!
Secondly on our list today I would like to thank all our sponsors and everyone who came out to last week's charity event "A Second Chance at Love" created and hosted by Pinups for Pitbulls, The Park, and SHAW Promotion. The party was a blast, the bands were awesome, our amazing sponsors 44 North Vodka and
Mercy got us drunk (and happily sober again!), and the crowd was stunning. Motorcycles and pups are my two loves, so we couldn't be more excited to have such great events to be working with. Check out the photos and recap HERE
if you weren't able to make it out!
Now on to this week; it's a big one! I'm going to start with our headliner and one of SHAW's oldest clients, Lit's 10 year anniversary!! Not only are they one of my favorite bars in Manhattan, and not only are they celebrating a milestone in NYC nightlife culture, but they are bringing some of the coolest names to the event this Wednesday including Nick Zinner (of The Yeah Yeah Yeah's),
Prince Terrence and Justine D behind the decks and showcasing the night playing live is none other than Super Touch
! We can't wait to see this performance and hope to see you there.
Also this week we have another installment of DropOut Tuesdays tonight with live performances from Sage and Peter Hadar. For the record, this party is RSVP only because it is so huge, but fear not, we have your exclusive comp guest list which will close at 6:30PM tonight so hit us up! Tonight we also have a new party, House of Commons
, a British dance party with DJ Ceremony at The Delancey. On Friday is Girls & Boys presents Dub Police with Caspa, Trolly Snatcha, Subscape & D1 at upstairs at Webster Hall and downstairs at The Studio is the infamous Trash! party with guest DJ Andie Cassette and hosted by Markko Donto (of Wolf Party). We have your guest list
right here for both events! The list is extremely limited, so RSVP ASAP!
On a sad note, White Noise is closing its doors, but that of course requires a celebration and our friends, The Wild Ones, are executing this final goodbye this Friday with DJ Samuel Valentine. I've been to the The Wild Ones party a few times including hosting Michael T's birthday party and it is truly a great rock and roll party at one of the last rock n roll bars. We are sad to see another great venue closing in NYC but I'm sure Mr. Samuel Valentine has some more tricks up his sleeves, DJing at our March 29th Harley Davidson of NYC party. Did we mention to save the date??!
Rounding out the weekend is Fuse Gallery presents Joe Heaps Nelson – “This is Why We Can’t Have Nice Things” gallery opening, our good friends .357 Lover are hosting another one of their awesome Spectacular Showtime Show at Big Sky Works in Williamsburg (if you have never seen this band, this is the place to see it!) and check out the new monthly Monday party,
Funeral Drive
, brought to you by The Skinny Bar & Lounge with DJ Bride of Wire and Mick Royale, bringing you the best goth, deathrock, darkwave, post-punk, and more the last Monday of every month!
Lastly on our list, this Sunday is the Oscars and we are excited to team up with Kostume Kult once again. They are having their 7th Annual Oscar gala “Occupy Red Carpet” party at Tamanny Hall! I really love the Kostume Kult wacky events and this will be the best Oscar party in town. Get your $15 presale tickets now
! If you are planning on staying in Brooklyn on Oscar Sunday, JaiDee will be bartending an Oscar party over at Crown Victoria
in Williamsburg where they are showing it on a jumbo screen with no cover.
Wow, that is a lot to take in, so see below for more details on the individual events or you can see them listed on our Calendar page. As always, thanks for reading and we hope you will have a great week thanks to all of the fun things we have in store for you!
