Fader 59 "The Now Issue" release party feat. Charles Hamilton 1.12.09

Ok, so the event started at 8 and I didn't get there until 10 and all I got to see of Charles Hamilton's "performance" was a simulated guitar solo and him having a "conversation" on stage with some random girl he picked out of the audience. Interesting. Still have yet to hear any of his music. LoL 

Also spotted: Wale, 4/8 of the Retro Kidz

(it was ridiculously crowded in the performance area... ugh)

Steph Jones performance at a private birthday party @ Lucille's 1.03.09

Awwww!!! :oD I was SO PROUD of Steph!!! His live show has come a long way from when we first met... he's been putting in work and it shows. He did a 9 song set and the vocals were on point through all of it. Dope, dope, dope show. (Mateo definitely did his thing as well. Loved the cover of "Whatever You Like" and "Get To Know Me")

Also spotted: Jared "JL" Cotter, B. Scott, DJ Clue

Touch 1.03.09

After Steph's performance @ Lucille's I went over to Touch to hang out with Romeo and some of his friends...

(side note: I saw the funniest shit EVER when I was leaving Lucille's... this dude was getting dragged out of BBKing's by his permed hair by 5 security guards because he decided it was a wise idea to push and swing at one of them LOL SMH)

Quote of the day:

"Look me in the eye, it’s okay if your scared, so am I But we’re scared for different reasons. I’m scared of what I won’t become and you’re scared of what I could become. Look at me! I won’t let myself end where I started, I won’t let myself finish where I begun. I know what is within me, even if you can’t see it yet. Look me in the eyes, I have something more important than courage. I have patience, I will become what I know I am."

Angel Lola Luv birthday party @ Corio

So it was POURING rain by the time I got out of the i-Standard producer's showcase with Chance and since I was already downtown, I stopped by Angel "Lola Luv"'s birthday party @ Corio. She had 2 dancers that put on a burlesque/strip show and then she gave an impromptu performance of her own (apparently she's a rapper now... LOL).
