Typical Tuesday night in NYC

Got so much love for Giant Step, still bringing it after all these years. Also love the fact the parties they throw have great DJ's and musicians at great venues and are free! I got there a bit late and missed Rich Medina's set, surrounded by a mob under the discoball was a small group of afro-latin musicians groovin' but with no mic's so couldn't hear much and it was like a sauna which is apropos since we were at Le Bain. Joe Clausell got on the decks and dropped some heat.

It got too hot in there so me and my boy Small Change hopped in his ride and hit up BBar for Beige's last night. Was ultra-packed and paid our respects and dipped to see DJ Shorty at Rose Bar to pay some more respect and called it an early night.

Knicks, Bing Ji Ling, Parker Posey, DJ Premier: Just Another Tuesday Night Out In NYC

Started innocently and early at Freemans with my boy Ryan. Then it was over to Minetta Tavern while we waited for room at the bar over at Miss Lily's for some Ackee, Sorrel and serious tunes. Then it was past time to get to a bar with a TV to catch end of Knicks V Celtics. Not gonna speak on that...happened to be by DJ Shorty's house and he scooped us up and took us to his gig at Rose Bar. One mighty expensive drink later he tells us Bing Ji Ling is performing at the Standard Hotel. We hop the train, grab a felafel and luckily get into the Boom Boom Room no problem. Funky soulful set and another even mightier drink bill and we hop cab to Bowery Bar to see Erich Conrad who is with his fav party girl Parker Posey. I lose Ryan there when his wife shows but with my boy Donald in tow we hit Sutra because DJ Premier was the guest DJ. Lotsa old-school heads in the house Grandmaster Caz, Greg Nice, Puba and Alamo etc. My boy Max Glazer usually spins reggae downstairs but he got bumped cause of Primo and he wasn't hating just taking it all in...
