Nothing like doing New York City things when the opportunity arises! Thursday night brought along a rescheduled dubstep show from a venue closure earlier in the summer. We had been waiting all summer for this Tape B show at Avant Garnder, but by this point we had seen him play 4 live sets during the summer festival season.
That being said, Tape B played under his tech-house alias for the opening set after doors and it was a b2b set with none other than Destructo, aka Gary Richards, the temporary CEO of the bankrupt club venue and long-time brains behind All My Friends, Hard Summer, and Friendship.
Anyways, plenty of reasons to double down on steps after 10K at school I added another 10K at the club before it hit midnight. Bing Bong. Go Bushwick!
Friday was another grueling day of school after a fun night out with some of the world's freshest dubstep. But I thrived on my first Friday A and ripped through a great lesson about area on the coordinate plane.
Of course, in true BYC fashion, Tape B announced a Fridat afternoon free popup show in Times Square with Dr. Fresch from 5.30 to 7pm. I made it home from school by 4.30pm with all my lessons and papers printed for Monday!!
I got there a few minutes before they popped the top on the citysoul bass bus, and then found my partner's best friend right up on the rails. We had front row spots for 90 minutes of beautiful bliss, in the heart of Manhattan under gorgeous sunny skies, with IDs and VIPs getting full thrown at us left and right.
I headed down to an old wateringy hole in SoHo after the show ended, but the last barkeep who I knew from my old days of sipping there had moved to a diff see rent bar after 22 years. Oh my. At least the rice pudding shop, Rice To Riches, still has unhinged stickers and wall pictures.
With the round trip commute to Times Square and my detour to SoHo for the scallop crudo & chicken liver mousse from Thai Diner and then a dessert treat from Rice To Riches, I was an easy feat hitting 20K for another day. Until next time...
