Location: The Bar 200 Orchard ( In the L.E.S.)
Total Party Count: 99
The after-party to the very sold out Bowery Ballroom Drums / Surfer Blood / Depreciation Guild show was normal, but the more notable partying occurred backstage in the greenroom of B.Ballroom, a room for which there should be a made-for-HBO movie called "If These Walls Could Talk 3: This One Has Almost Nothing To Do With Lesbianism / Abortion."
There would be a scene in this movie where an awesome band of ambiguously-gay hotties (we'll call them "The Drums") are getting ready to go on stage, having some drinks while surrounded by random photographers, a manager, an after-school vocal coach, and inexplicably, some insane drunken blond woman sitting alone, loudly shrieking about how everyone in the room is a bunch of giant A-holes. The Drums didn't know her and thought she was totally weird and it made you wonder "who let the crazy lady back here," and I needed to find out. I started talking to her but quickly realized that Natasha Lyonne's wild-child-with-Tourette's character was going to have to be based on the non-fictional inimitable guitar-monster named Marnie Stern, and she's gonna talk about her vag a lot. I really liked her.
Anyway, here are photos from the regular:
3 Hawaiian Punches, 2 Drums, and a Knight School
Tweetards
Peggy sang a song on stage with The Drums, as noted by the The New York Times. PS THERE ARE PPL DYING IN HAITI ALSO CONAN VS LENO AND SOMETHING ABOUT MASSACHUSETTS REPUBLICAN (I am trying to break into the arena of news punditry / social commentary)
John Norris. He was asking me about The Drum's history, where they met, who writes the songs, the name of their old band, which ones are gay, etc. MTV NEWS U HEAR IT FROM SHIRLEY NEVER
