Great clip from the black keys, this will get you moving. Love it.

brilliant

A friend showed me this yesterday, fantastic.

jules' bistro

Jules Bistro  located in the east village, NYC is super fun. The food is french, tick, music jazz, tick. Styled like a French Bistro similar to that you may find in Marais or La Bastille Arrondissements in Paris. Little bit more heaven and fun in a city where this is well in abundance. Mia and I went for dinner and jazz, staff are fantastic too.

Another little Speakeasy Mia and I dropped by in NYC - cake shop.

let yourself be free

the rock shop

the rock shop - cheap drinks, staff with attitude, great acoustics, a brooklyn favourite for its locals and bands wanting to get a start. Mia and I went to see Dave Dondero, a must on Mia's nyc list and we sipped our beers watching justice of the unicorns before hand, who are pretty random btw. This is one of those places where you hang with the band at the bar, no barriers, cool Brooklyn huh.

How lovable is Angus and Julia Stone's website. The framed photos, the books, the postcard, the vintage telephone, the gramophone, the background. love, love, love.

fiery, red hair

For a long time now I have been completely mesmerised by Florence Welch. Her voice, charisma, hair, overwhelming, all-encompassing music. I am still to tire from her latest cd. A few weeks ago I discovered that Florence is performing live in Central Park, NY on the 25th June, my goodness, devastated, I am still to see her live and boo I leave NY on the 15th, can you believe that. Exasperated.
