Pelicula, Paloma Marin

Pelicula from the crapper on Vimeo.



During the summer, this lovely girl named paloma. she came to chicago to visit from bogota, colombia, and I believe this girl is talented composer. piano is the main instrument she plays, but i think she has a lovely voice also.

Halloween Parties!

This weekend I'll be working three parties, so ya'll should make it out to all of them!

Friday, October 30
the first party i'll be at is a fundraiser event; proceeds from the bar and donation jars are going to tropical storm relief out in the Philippines. Donation bonuses for every thousand dropped at the bar. this party will be at between lounge, 1324 N Milwaukee Ave, and there is no cover!


The second one will be at the Myour House, 3329 S Indiana Ave,and it's a costume party! best part is it's an 18 and up party, so for those babies that need a place to party, this is it!


Saturday October 31
it's gonna be a halloween disco party, discounted entrance with chromeo stub and if you are dressed up in costume. This is a new spot for me, but it should be fun! 431 N Wolcott, 18 and up; IDs are mandatory!

2 weekends of Detroit

First weekend, i headed out there with the Myour House girls.

Friday, when we arrived, first thing we did was scoop up Nic Notion and met up with Quelle and Mars. We headed out to Eastern Market for a little party. Unfortunately, as I grabbed my camera out of my bag, I realized I forgot the battery. I did bring the film camera, but those photos will take some time to post up.

Most of the weekend was a blurr, it was all hanging out until Saturday night. We all went to the Benefits for Hex Murda show, who had Slum Village, Trick Trick, Rude Jude, The Alchemist, Danny Brown, and other fun loving hip hop artist performing just to gather a crowd to support Hex Murda's medical bills.

oh yeah they really know how to rip you off in Detroit
12 cent different if you pay cash instead of credit.

The second time around, I went to visit my dear friend Kristine. Too bad I couldn't stay the entire weekend. Instead I came back to work a party that got busted. Anywho, I did have an awesome time hanging out at proof seeing a bum stripping in the window for some unfortunate ladies. then going to Northern Lights to see a bus boy grooving to some funky beats! And they actually had a disco ball going!

No Olympics in Chicago!

Downtown Chicago from Lincoln Park

My city, my hometown. It didn't even make it to the final votings with International Olympic Committee. You know why? It's cause this city is filled with corruption, and it's always been like that. With Michael McDonald, Al Capone (tho he wasn't working for the city, he was all over chicago's politics), the Daley's, Judge Cooley, Gov. Ryan, Gov. Blagojevich and the list goes on. Between 1995 and 2005, there had been roughly 470 politicians guilty of corruption. I hope this is a wake up call for them. Start straightening out their shit. Providing to those who needs it, and quit throwing money on greedy bastards.

Hawthorne and the County

this past friday (9/25) i went to see mayer hawthorne and the county. to be honest, i think i was too drunk to enjoy it. from the shitty photos i took, it looks as though i was too drunk. i do know for a fact, i did have tons of fun.
