SHAW PROMOTION NEWSLETTER & EVENT DETAILS 10.4-10.9

“BK Bazaar w Yacht live, Roller Derby Bronx VS Manhattan tix giveaway, Roxy Cottontail + photos from All Tomorrow’s Parties and more!”

Hello Lovers!

This is JaiDee Valentine filling in this week, sending you to all the fun event happenings in NYC and beyond! Normally, Mr. Andy Shaw would filling your inbox with excitement, but this past weekend we were lucky enough to attend and photograph the All Tomorrow’s Parties festival which really backed up our already busy schedule, so he is swamped piecing back together Monday (the man works 24/7 I say!). ATP Festival was really like none other, especially considering it was curated by Portishead, with performances by Public Enemy and Jeff Mangum to name a few. We got hooked up with a pair of photo passes and I am so excited to share our experience there. I threw up three galleries, each cataegorized by the three nights we were there: Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. If you didn’t get to go this year (which is no excuse because we even gave away a pair of weekend passes!), I captured The Pop Group, Swans, Foot Village, The Horrors, Shellac, Shepard Fairy (DJing!) and of course Portishead and Public Enemy. We stayed in the beautiful Berekley Hotel which was special because that’s where all of the performers were put up, so almost every elevator ride was memorable and we stayed a few doors down from Flava Flav! You can check out all of the fun photos and my ATP recap HERE. We’d like to thank our fabulous clients Barry, Deborah, Kara (Motormouth Media), and everyone else from ATP for making this a truly memorable experience for us, you brits really know how to party. We can’t wait for next year! Check out all the photos HERE!!!!

All Tomorrow’s Parties returns to the USA this September in the new location of Asbury Park, N.J. bringing an I’ll Be Your Mirror event to the iconic Asbury Park waterfront. For the inaugural American I’ll Be Your Mirror, Portishead will curate the Saturday and Sunday and headline their first East Coast shows since 1998! Since returning with their acclaimed Third album in 2008, Portishead have proven to be one of the most exciting live bands around and their long awaited return to the Tri-State Area will no doubt be one of the highlights of the year.

ATP, who are curating on the Friday are also very excited to be able to present Jeff Mangum who on the Friday and Sunday nights will perform his first large public shows of Neutral Milk Hotel songs in over a decade. After releasing what is now one of the most loved albums of the 1990s (In The Aeroplane Over The Sea), the group disbanded before many of those who now love their albums had a chance to see the songs performed live, so this will no doubt be a very special occasion. Please note, as Jeff has chosen to play in the stunning, but smaller Paramount theatre only people who buy 3 day Jeff Mangum festival passes get access to his shows.

I’ll Be Your Mirror is a new series of artist curated music, film and art events. Acting as sister events to the ATP Festivals, which take place in holiday resorts, I’ll Be Your Mirror retains the curatorial and multiple band and film concept, but will take place in cities worldwide. The events are named after the b-side to The Velvet Underground’s original All Tomorrow’s Parties 7″ single, released in 1966.

Everyone who came to our three events at Kutshers knows how special the place was and how lucky they were to have been a part of our events there and while we are sad to not be returning, we are excited to be moving to the iconic Asbury Park. The Convention Hall has seen the likes of Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, The Doors, The Beach Boys and The Rolling Stones grace its stage and the Paramount Theatre has welcomed stars such as Tony Bennett who often insists on playing a song with all the electrics turned off to demonstrate the amazing acoustics of the room.

We will be transporting the whole ATP experience over to this new location on the beach at Asbury Park, with the main shows taking place at the Convention Hall and Paramount Theatre, as well as the nearby Asbury Lanes and the Berkeley hotel, which the man in black, Johnny Cash himself once lived at. We think it will make a stunning successor to Kutshers.

As well as the live music line-up of over 30 acts across the weekend, Friday will feature a Comedy stage, and we’re very pleased to announce that our friends at Criterion will return again to run the Cinema across the weekend. All three days will also feature DJs and other activities to be confirmed – we’ll also be bringing back some of our popular food vendors including the much loved Asia Dogs, and much, much more. Performances all take place indoors, so you have no need to fear about the weather!

Please make sure to read all of the details below before buying so that you understand what your ticket does and does not grant you access to. Click HERE for full details.

Portishead tix giveaway! Nasty Mondays, Burning Angels at Trash! Dirty Spiders, Trippy Tea Party, Koffin Kats live & more!

Hello New York City,
It’s been 12 days since I quit smoking cigarettes and I have to say it has not been easy so far! To try and quit smoking after  20 years of nicotine, I feel my mind is playing tricks on me and I am constantly looking for “reasons” to want to smoke. This, by far, is one of the hardest things I’ve had to do, and it is all up to me. Oy Vey, wish me luck!

***Ticket Giveaway Alert***


This week we are giving away tickets to the highly anticipated ALL TOMORROW’S PARTIES festival starring Jeff Magnum of Neutral Milk Hotel, Portishead, and Public Enemy in Asbury Park, NJ. We have been working with ATP for the past 3 years now and this will be the first time the SHAW team is able to leave the office to attend! On that note, we’d like YOU to come too, so we are giving away a pair of 3 day admission tickets!!! This includes a the Sunday Jeff Magnum performance, however does NOT include travel or lodging, so please make sure you can sort that out and attend all three days.  For entry details and how to win,  go to “Contest Rules” and follow the instructions.  Winners will be notified by email this week.  Good luck and we hope to see you there!!

Saturday we have a punk rock birthday bash for two of NYC’s legendary rockers, Justin (WWIX) and A.D (Dirty Spiders), at Brooklyn’s Don Pedro. As you may know, I am the latest addition to Dirty Spiders and I would love to see some friends attend this show!  I actually am currently in two kick ass bands and would love it if you would “LIKE” both of them on Facebook, because they are really good.  “Like Dirty Spiders“. “Like Bikini Carwash“, and check out the “SHAW Time” blog for pictures of the debut  of Bikini Carwash  HERE!!

That’s it for this week. I am going to leave you with a video from my old friend Kadshah Nagibe of sweetproductionmedia.com that I was fortunate enough to be a part of.  It consists of two of my favorite things, Triumph motorcycles and chicks with tattoos. Oh, and it’s beautifully shot too.  Click on the image below for the video to see yours truly in action!!

Thanks for reading, have a great week everyone, and good luck with winning the All Tomorrow’s Parties ticket giveaway.  Who DOESN’T want to see Portishead with Public Enemy?!!!

“Trouble & Bass is the sound of staying up all night and getting wild in the streets, sweat dripping off the walls and speakers pounding in your face. For the last four years, these rowdy ravers have brought raw energy back to the world’s dancefloors by effortlessly flipping bass music in all its forms. Taking influences from house, electro, dubstep, drum & bass, metal, and hip-hop, T&B has created an entirely new genre known simply as “heavy bass.”

Trouble & Bass was born in the dirty streets of New York City, fulfilling Drop The Lime’s vision of a futuristic mob of DJ/producers playing hard-hitting warehouse beats with no rules. The crew—DTL, Star Eyes, The Captain, AC Slater, and various affiliates worldwide—has built that vision into a reality with hype DJ sets and mind-blowing monthly parties featuring the most cutting-edge talent from the US and Europe. Along the way, T&B has fused subcultures to make a whole new audience for their sound, while creating an aesthetic that’s now recognizable around the world.

T&B has grown even stronger in the last year, adding the amazing AC Slater to the line-up, as well as affiliates from all over the globe, including Paris’ Mikix the Cat, Stockholm’s Little Jinder, Philly’s Starkey, Krakow’s Supra 1, Lisbon’s Zombies For Money, Hell Spawned – Deathface, Melbourne’s Acid Jacks and Jamaica’s 77KLASH. But even as the T&B movement grows bigger every day, the crew isn’t afraid to take chances and remains true to its DIY drum & bass and punk roots, doing all the production, promotion, and design for themselves.”
