“Bootie NYC all 90′s Mashup, Rabbit Whole The Unofficial EDC Afterparty, Savoy secret show, Brillz, Trash! Props, Hello Taiwan Rocks +”

Hello My Dear Readers,
The Red Bull Music Academy is taking a break this week and will pick back up on May 19th, but it doesn’t mean we don’t have another great week for ya. Let’s start with our baby, the forever growing Bootie NYC party, presented by SHAW Promotion & Bootie. The Bootie 90′s edition has been widely popular in Bootie SF & Bootie LA and this is the first time in NYC and I predict it will be one of our biggest. Be sure to get there early to catch the live mashup band MORE COWBELL (Austin TX) on stage at 11:30 PM and we have FREE Bootie mashup CDs to the first 100 people through the door. The early bird tickets are sold out but you can still get your advance tickets HERE!

Moving on with the parties this week. On Wednesday, we have a secret SAVOY show at a TBD venue. Get your limited tickets now and the venue will be unveiled the day of the event, which is today. Check back on the secret location!

On Friday, we have Brillz, Sigma & Monsta at Girls & Boys party upstairs at Webster Hall and Trash! at The Studio in the basement and BASSment Saturdays with Evol Intent. We also have a very special “2013 Hello Taiwan East Coast Tour” on Saturday at Drom featuring some great bands from Taiwan and NYC touring their way through the East Coast. Check out the listing info for the bands and go check out this one of it’s kind rock touring package.

For Sunday, we have your invite to the Unofficial EDC Afterparty, “Rabbit Whole“  at Le Poisson Rouge for all you festival heads who can’t get enough. Featuring Bunny and many more great DJs & dancers and a VERY SPECIAL SURPRISE GUEST.  We can not say who it is but it will be a big deal!!  This night consumes both rooms of LPR and goes until the wee hours of the morning.  Not to miss, especially if you can’t get over to Electric Daisey Carnival.

Lastly, we are gearing up for our “SHAW Me the Tickets” for the summer and we are starting with a BANG! We have one pair of tickets to giveaway for the upcoming “Coney Island Laser Shows presents “Pink Floyd: Dark Side of the Moon 40th Anniversary” (on the boardwalk!) on Sunday, June 1st.

For example, the Red Bull Music Academy kicked off this past weekend and is now in full swing with a total of 38 events until the end of May with endless amazing talents and shows. This week they are producing “Drone Activity In Progress”, Flying Lotus at Terminal 5, “The Bunker”, Brian Eno’s “77 Million Paintings” opening and MORE!

Hello NYC
Still chilly here, aye? We just got back from a road trip traveling to Kentucky for a wedding where we drove through 10 states, 2 national parks, drove almost the entire Blue ridge Parkway & the whole Skyline Drive in Virginia. The weather was warm, the drive was beautiful, and I was really hoping to get back to NYC for Spring weather, however for some reason, I still have my winter coat on. BRR!! At least today is good weather. Well, at least we are home in time to kick off the Red Bull Music Academy series in NYC with 38 events over the course of the month of May. We have all the details for this below, so keep reading!
