Club Crush: The Week’s Best Electronic Lineups

As I rouse myself from a two-hour midday nap, it has become very clear to me that I’m still recovering from last week’s BEMF. I’ll admit it’s been a while since I went for B2B sunrise hangs, but this weekend provided fine excuses to stay up past my bed time. Pete Tong‘s Friday night party […]

Club Crush: The Week’s Best Electronic Lineups

I know I’ve been a stranger lately. The truth is, between my yoga training, a trip to Croatia and 9,000 weddings, I’ve barely had a chance to chill, let alone hit the dance floor. Well now that the 200-hour certificate is in hand, my bags are unpacked and the last fitting has been completed, I’m not […]

Club Crush: The Week’s Best Electronic Lineups

I can’t believe it’s already the end of July! How is this summer almost over and I have not a single trip to Coney Island under my belt? Oh wait, I know. It’s because, much like every other summer, instead of going to the beach I’ve gotten distracted by nightclubs and other shiny objects. And […]

Where to avoid St. Patrick’s day in Brooklyn

Where to avoid St. Patrick’s day in Brooklyn

Do you want to leave your house tonight but also feel pretty passionate about avoiding a run-in with NYC’s drunkest? Ya know, the green-adorned pub-goers who just can’t seem to leave their college days behind? They’re decorated with cheap plastic shamrock beads and leprechaun hats—perhaps a day as awful as Santacon in terms of public […]

October 7, 2015 By Robert Lanham

They have a $3 taco happy hour, which is alright by us: The team behind Williamsburg barstaurant Battery Harris have joined forces with musicians Eli Goldstein (Soul Clap), Philipp Jung (M.A.N.D.Y.), and Gadi Mizrahi (Wolf & Lamb) to open Black Flamingo, a Miami-esque restaurant and lounge they say they’ve “tailored to remove the BS that […]
