house party


house party
A song from 2004 perhaps?
house party
Haha.
house party
Bedroom spillover.
house party
Hot Karla was there?
house party
...and then later that night went to some crazy house party at 3A! (I don't remember what this was for - anyone?)
house party
Thanks for hosting, Cynthia!
house party
Post-meal spread out.
house party
On Friday night we went to a house party in Gideon's empty 3rd Street apartment to celebrate his move to Los Angeles!
house party
All of Gideon's stuff had already been sent ahead to LA already so he'd been camping in the bedroom. Haha.
house party
Linda played Catrinel a tender Romanian folk-mopping song.
house party
More hoop rolling. (Oh, and Catrinel's also playing with a hula hoop in the foreground). This photo makes me cackle every time I look at it.
house party
Speaking of awesomely tiny shorts, Linda sat down, tuned up the mandolin and she and her equally pants-challenged friend teamed up for...
house party
...a mandolin-fueled duet called "__________________." (Please enter your suggested song titles in the comment section at the end of the page. And be NICE because these two are adorable and you know it).
house party
Color them HOOP-DAZZLED.
house party
These girls might look regular old wacky Williamsburg girls, but they were not. They were wacky Bucharest girls from Romania AND THEY WERE AWESOME. Check out the girl in the background tapping her friend on the shoulder - "I'm hooping next - cue up my jam an' shit."
house party
MOAR HOOPING. Linda doing her thing. I can't believe this photo predates the ZEF SIDE video.
house party
Couch-hug for the birthday girl!
house party
Buddies. Scott, Amanda, Cynthia, Cat, Fran, Cristie and Linda.
house party
This picture is great in so many different ways. My favorite part about this picture is looking at Cynthia and Amanda and realizing that they totally remind me of...


...Vin and Josh from pretty much every photo I have of them in college. Here's a pic of Vin and Josh from 1998 for comparison's sake.
house party
...and then you celebrate while someone tries to run through it?
house party
...with lots of backspin...
house party
Success! (Possibly!)
house party
...all which involved trying to through the hula hoop...
house party
Regular ol' hula hooping quickly grew tiresome and we immediately moved onto several make-them-up-as-you-go games...
house party
This is Fran. She had serious hula skills.
house party
Ok, now race to the couch! First person who gets off the couch, races across the room...
house party
Now turn over!
house party
Cat's one of those people who's is friends with lots of different groups of people! So her parties are always great because you are guaranteed to meet new people!
house party
Some of the new people I met decided to lead the party in a collaborative dance. First you throw your hands up!
house party
Then you roll into a ball on your back!
house party
We've clearly moved on to bowling now.
house party
Perfect form!
house party
Just because you're playing videogames doesn't mean that Emily can't start a danceparty!
house party
More Wii action shots.
house party
After spending a little QT with the birthday girl, I made my way through the loft and immediately ran into...
house party
...we got right back to playing DDR.
house party
A few dance-offs later and it was midnight! Happy 2006, everyone!
house party
...and they ended up taking me to this totally crazy-ass loft party in Tribecca where I ran into...
house party
...check out some house party (I think it was a guy that Karla and Niki went to law school with?).
house party
Yay!
house party
They were so fun to take pics of.
house party
Double Exposure.
house party
Amazing.
house party
Kicking the party off, Maximo Park performed in Ben's backyard. Hahaha.
house party
Special delivery! Let's hear it for sponsorship! Woooo!
house party
After the bands were all finished playing, a dance party broke out in Ben Brown's living room.
house party
Here's where the uber-strict door policy was enforced. (Said strict door policy quickly degradated to "Fuck yeah! Come on in! Woooooo!"
house party
The party late night as thing were winding down.
house party
Yay, it's Ben Brown! Thanks for having us! (PS - Holy shit, Idlewild's about to play your living room.)
house party
Then after Idelwild had finished and packed up, MC Chris hit the stage, er, living room floor.
house party
...Ben Brown's house to help set up for Sarah's debut party for her brand new record label, Stolen Transmission. Ben Brown (who's since moved out to SF after his start up was acquired!) who kind enough to donate his house for the party!
house party
It was pretty surreal watching them play in someone's house.
house party
Hula hoop party.
house party
After Maximo Park was done in the backyard, everyone crammed into the living room to see Idlewild play.
house party
OMG, I was close enough to steal a lock of Roddy's hair.
house party
Woo.
house party
They put on a great show.
house party
After the show, I ended up at some house party. Meh.
the november roundup
November, 2004
house party
Sid and my brother, crunked out of their tiny minds, kifed a giant, two-litre bottle of Malibu (fucking Malibu!) from the house and sat on the ground passing it back and forth taking swings and cackling. See what happens when you get the Night Train in your blood?
house party
We met back up with Mailman Mike and his crew at some houseparty that had a rad backyard garden on a hill.
house party
The first house party we went to kinda sucked. But they at least had...
house party
The party was kind of quiet until...
house party
By the time we got to this party, it was winding down and we were pretty drunk...
house party
...sorry about that. After hitting the street we headed over to this bearded guy's house party who was maybe a buddy of Mike Doyle's? (Or maybe not, judgeing by the look that Mike is giving him).
house party
We hit it off immediately and headed over to the party.
house party
Group karaoke! Adam Mandell, Brother Lawrence and Smellsgood Gina on back-up vox with Sarah taking the part of cheerleading dancer.
house party
The next day, I drove up to Asbury Park to meet up with Grant and hang out with John and Lori Craven. Grant I hung out at the beach all day and then in the evening John took us to a friend of a friend's pool party. Check out the scene...
