Prior to their sold out show at the Bataclan, the Black Keys put on an impromptu party at Le Pompon, a gorgeous new hot spot in Paris (which feels more like a NY bar than anything I have been to in Continental Europe). They worked the decks from 8pm – 2am, amidst a sweaty and [...]

It is places like this that leave people with an insatiable appetite for Paris. Walking into the dimly lit Hotel Costes, you are immediately transported into a decadent and sumptuous world. The see and be seen restaurant, situated in an open air patio surrounded by tables situated indoors, somehow offers the perfect balance between privacy [...]
Don’t let the name fool you, this spot is not just for lovers. I met a friend for a drink here last week, and was pleasantly surprised by the quiet, atmospheric setting. Because this little gem is off the tourist map, you find yourself in the company of francophones offering plenty of eye candy. With [...]

Caught the Parisians at the Fleche d’Or last night. They put on a great show. Reminded me of early MGMT. Also, loved the venue. It’s situated over train tracks way out in the 20th, and has some great spaces for smoking, lounging or catching a new act. The sounds system was pretty darn good too. [...]

Surkin opened for Digitalism at Social Club last night. The place was PACKED!! And he absolutely killed it. What a sweaty hot fun mess!
