Beauty Bar had a friends and family pre opening tonight for their new Brooklyn location. They have opening parties available to the public tonight and tomorow, but clearly you can’t make it tonight because you will be at my party at Webster Hall. The new Beauty Bar is in Bushwick, just 3 stops away from me on the JMZ. It is right by the Myrtle stop. Fortunately it is really close, because it is not the safest hood. I am sure it will be fine, but just be safe about it.

So last night they had an open vodka and beer bar all night and Jon Spencer’s amazing Rockabilly band Heavy Trash played. They were fucking awesome, but more on them, and the shots from their set tomorrow (assuming I am not in jail after tonight). Last night was really fun and the place was packed. At midnight I had a BIG shot of grape vodka and danced to James Brown for a bit. I am not really a dancer, but with soul music playing all night I had to get into it. There were some fun appearances last night like Andy Rourke from the Smith’s and the worlds second hottest photographer (Clearly I am #1) Ellen Stagg. All the Beauty Bar regulars were there as were several other down town bar owners. It was just a great party. And the best part is that the new Beauty Bar is a block away from a 24 Hour Popeyes so after I finished dancing and taking photos I got a 2 piece and a Mardi Gras cheese cake from a dude named Balla. Unfortunately he forgot my Red Beans & Rice, but I will let that slide this once.

Okay, here are the shots from the party last night. And like I said, shots of Heavy Trash will be up tomorrow. See a lot of you guys tonight.
