WONDER-Full XI: A Tribute To Stevie Wonder...BK Studio Lofts, Brooklyn
5/16/09
It was all Stevie, all night long as DJ Spinna and Bobbito (a.k.a. Kool Bob Love) hosted the annual "WONDER-Full: Tribute To The Wonders Of Stevie" party Saturday night at BK Studio Lofts in Brooklyn. Like every year, the place was packed, the music was pumping and the dance floor was jumpin' off — a wonderful time indeed!
Kool Bob Love
Hands Up: a packed dance floor and smiling faces...definitely one of my favorite things
The trend of the evening: fedora hats for him (and her) in all varieties...
Silk dress + pretty bow = me likey
The hair, the big earrings, the black pants...I love girl who works her look
A sea of Stevie fans. Until next year...

Subway Art: 25th Anniversary Edition Celebration...Revolutionary Books, NYC
5/14/09
It's known as the bible of graffiti—Subway Art by legendary photographers Henry Chalfant and Martha Cooper, who famously captured the movement in New York City in the '70s and '80s. Now, 25 years (and over half a million copies) later, the bestselling book has been re-released in a new larger-than-life, deluxe format that features brand new pictures and text by Martha and Henry.
I stopped by the celebration on Wednesday night at Revolutionary Books on 26th Street to join friends, fans and famed graffiti writers in catching a signed copy of the new collector's edition, which, not surprisingly, completely sold out.
Subway Art: 25th Anniversary Edition
Martha Cooper signing my book (you won't be finding this on eBay...)
A little hard to see...Martha's earring, a silver camera (how appropriate)
Henry Chalfant and moi
Graff artist Lee Quinones and Bobbito Garcia (a.k.a. Kool Bob Love, DJ Cucumber Slice...slice...slice)
Double trouble: Photographers Ernie Pannicioli and Joe Conzo
Joe Conzo (always doing his thing)
A few pages from the book...

Thursday Night Live @ John Varvatos...315 Bowery, NYC
5/7/09
It's a well-known address to all New Yorkers: 315 Bowery—the former home of the iconic punk rock club CBGB. These days, designer John Varvatos' men's boutique has taken the stage. At the invitation of my good friend Ari Kassman, I stopped in Thursday night to catch a performance by Mad Juana. (Varvatos, an avid rock 'n' roll fan, continues to keep the music alive by featuring live bands from time to time. Just two nights prior, the legendary New York Dolls performed to kick off the designer's new monthly XM Sirius Satellite Radio show "Born In Detroit".)
Admittedly, I was more intrigued by the ghost of CBGB than anything, but of course, a rockin' crowd always inspires me.
The stores' centerpiece: a gigantic black chandelier. Ahhhhh...
CBGB's original flyer and graffiti-laden wall—now framed and preserved. Very cool.
Vintage vinyl
A little rock 'n' roll history
