New York City

// November 4th, 2009 // music

I just got back from New York. What a blast! Vivian and I performed at this open-mic variety show which featured avant-garde films, music, dance-poetry and collective audience massage!(I kid you not, only in New York!). We also chanced upon Woody Allen’s band playing a hole-in-a-wall. We did a pilgrimage to the legendary Apollo in Harlem and we went to the beach down at Brighton Beach (the Russian area of Brooklyn). I dipped my feet in the Atlantic Ocean in October! We were staying in a charming cockroach-infested appartment in the East Village. A nice lady from Argentina was renting us her guest bed-room. We had some tasty Tajin at a Moroccon place called the Mogador and some amazing Malasian food in Little Italy. All around it was a wonderful trip. We will go back there…this time to play a show!
