All the people dressed up and participating in the parade start on the boardwalk, walk down the beach through three gated ribbons, each representing a season, and then march the entire parade right in the water, officially bringing in the summer.
Around 1am-ish, everybody cut out of Mercedes party (what do these suckas all have jobs or sumptin?) and I headed solo down to the Tribeca Grand for some weird-ass record release party. Yay.
Here's the audience (or what's left of them at well-past 2am) giving Grant a standing ovation upon the completion of his song. They totally went apeshit.
My friend Jack Wright sent an email teasing me that he had gotten invited to a party that the Hilton sisters' were throwing to celebrate the beginning of fashion week. Who cares? Or that's what I thought until he told me that it was going to be a lingerie/pajama party. I immediately called upon Pimpmaster Tony Meyer who got me on tha list wit da quickness.
Fast-forward five days to Thursday. The show is being re-aired for the third time in a week and this time we gathered at the swank digs of Tony Meyer (lead Spring Street investor and all around macking pimp...seriously, this guy puts Bruce Wayne to shame).
I had been in bed sick for a week, but I was going to be damned if I missed gathering with my co-workers at Nerve's swanky SoHo offices to watch the first ever airing on Saturday the 19th.
So on Saturday afternoon, Vin gets a call from this German guy Ralf who's a photographer that we met at our friend Chris' 4th of July party. Ralf showed up to Chris' party with all these hot model chicks and I guess Vin was like "Yo, who are all those girls?" and Ralf was like (in thick German accent) "They are my girls. If you want, when I have pahty, I will call you and invite you to pahty and you can meet these girls und more." Vin was like "Yeah, okay dude." 9 months and 7 days later, Ralf called and invited us to his housewarming pahty.
Bar #1 - Remote Lounge, 12:30am: Nerve is throwing a party here in late February so a bunch of the Nerve crew met up here to check out their digs. Rufus' friend was promoting the place and told us a secret word that made all drinks a "two for one" special. Nice!
