Stuyvesant Cove

This weekend has sort of been a bust. I missed A Place To Bury Strangers at the Seaport on Friday, and King Khan & The Shrines were sort of dissapointing. But fried tiny buns, margaritas and Max Fish made up for that later in the evening. And then on Saturday Citysol was running late because of the rain delay, so Dan Deacon had to cancel and Ecstatic Sunshine played a short set sans Dustin Wong. And then the massive Todd P Roosevelt Island BBQ also got postponed today thanks to the inclement weather. But it wasn't a total loss. And the Studio BBQ on Thursday was fun. Watching the Euro Cup Final now. Cheers.

Die Allman Bruder

I went to 2 ponytail shows this weekend. The first was on Friday at the Less Artists More Condos loft party on W3rd and Mcdougal in the Village, the other was at the After The Jump Festival in Bklyn on Saturday. Me and Bb and Kyle went to the Anamanaguchi show at the Cake Shop before the first show, which was an early all-ages show that ended at 10. So there were a bunch of 17 year olds pogo-ing and moshing to the nintendo jamz. We got to the LAMC party in time to see Ponytail, which was amazing. And I ran into my friend Barrett and his friend Kelly on the street outside of the Fat Black Pussycat before the show, and they came with us to the show. And then me, Bb, Kyle, Barrett, Kelly, Huggybear, and Mmtalia all came to my place for a little gathering/afterparty for to drink Brooklyn Weisse, Old Speckled Hen, and Magic Hat and watch the new Weeds episode in HD on the projector. And a couple of them ended up staying over.

I got to the After the Jump Fest around 4 on saturday afternoon in Billysburg, and there were bands playing at the Music Hall, at Galapagos, and on the skreet. It was sort of like a baby SXSW in Bklyn. The highlights of which were the Chairlift, Power Douglas, Ponytail, and Pattern is Movement shows. And I cabbed it back to Manhattan around 1130. Today I went to Jazz Brunch at the Washington Square hotel w/ Barrett and his friend Jesse, who was the older brother in The Squid and The Whale. Then me and Barrett and Jesse came back here to hang out and have some mimosas. Then we went to Cantilero in Gramercy to meet Barrett's friend Ali and have some Sangria, and then capped the afternoon off at Panchito's for some Marg's. Then I came home and took a drunk catnap and was 40 minutes late to me & Bb's DJ gig in the East Village. It started out a little rocky w/ the levels on the mixer being off, but then everything clicked into place and we played some good music and met some people and I drank free amstels all night and got a paid a lil bit at the end of the night.

Bionic Pie

I got my NPSG [nocturnal polysomnography] done yesterday at team sleep, for to get my sleep scored. I did bad. I'm going to start bright light therapy soon to try and curb by DSPD [delayed sleep phrase disorder]. Which is pretty common, but i'm a severe case, apparently. Seeing as that i got about half an hour of sleep last night. And i still have 2 electwodes attached from all machines that i was hooked up to. Thank you and goodnight.
