This week went by so fast I don't know where to begin... I went to D.C. and back in a day, I ran 40 miles (literally), I made a PLAY LIST (that you can download), I saw a dozen bands, rode 60 miles on my bike, the most people ever (15,748) tuned in to FIRST PERSON , I wrote some for a NEW PROJECT and I'm...
About 3 years ago my friend played me what would be the first demos of a band called Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros... from the first notes of a song with no vocals on it, I knew something special was in the works...
I've been fortunate to watch and participate in the amazing process of the beginning and growth of a few things in my life... it's always a wonderful experience, brand new every time......
I styled the Spring/Summer 2011 campaign for Kangol, shot by CAPTAIN RADICAL himself, a couple months ago up at the Montauk Yacht Club... it was a totally cool couple of days to say the least...
This behind the scenes video was shot by Jay Buim... he's awesome, the whole crew was awesome... in fact, I wish I could do this every day... in fact, we should do this every day...
My friends from LA came to town this week... it was kinda weird as I'm accustomed to being taken all around their town. I guess it wasn't so different... Tal was, as always, the "Little Boss" and somehow still managed to drag Bobby Hundreds and I around my home turf, haha...

My pals from Vans were in town and they threw a little get-together... "NO PICTURES OF NEW...
I'm DJing four parties this week... here are two of them... If you're in New York and you're looking for fun, look no further... we got you covered.

My buddy NICKY DIGITAL invited me to DJ this OUT-OF-THIS-WORLD party Sunday!

*If you're not in New York, you can always party with me HERE . This week's show just might be the best...
Sundays, when I'm home, are for trips to Spanish Harlem to attend the weekly cookout... the neighborhood folks, the kids and the puppies gather out back where corn is grilled, music and laughter abound... discussions range from movies to art to New York history... ice cream is consumed... the night brings on the summer guests that are fire flies.
The dogs that hang round, constantly under foot and wrestling among themselves are like toddlers... all rescued...
Spent Wednesday cleaning up the massive mess of my apartment, because my good friend Bryan Ling is coming to crash for a few days...
Bryan used to live in New York but moved to California a few years ago, to spend his every waking moment working with a band that we all love called Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros. Every couple months we get to hang out here, or in LA, and he always brings...
When I moved to Manhattan I knew approximately 3 people... on Saturdays I'd wake up at 9am or so and just walk the city. If you've ever been to New York on the weekends you know that on days that start with "S" the streets are "ghost town" empty until about noon. I'd get up on the weekends, grab my i-pod and walk down to the bottom of the island and then turn around and...
This week, like most recent times, was a busy, full, fun week... let me begin with a little story...
A month or so ago I got a bike... I was riding non-stop for 10 straight days and on the 10th day, much to my dismay, I walked out of a dinner meeting to see another person, someone I didn't recognize riding away on it. I looked down to see the lock had been cut, bolt cutters,...
I get confused by the internet... like when a blog obviously written by one person says "we" I always wonder who all "we" is...09:52:35 PM September 01, 2010from web
