OMG I'm almost famous!

Not too long ago, the world was introduced to General Larry Platt and his song "Pants on the Ground". There was something about this jam that inspired me to do my own version.



Now, 2800+ views later, 2 seconds of my song has been used in a CNN segment! Apparently "Pants on the Ground" is a viral smash! Woop woop!

October 21st - 23rd 2009
Shanghai'd :: CMJ showcase at 88 Palace

88 Palace // 88 E. Broadway @ Forsyth
(Dim Sum restaurant on the 2nd Fl of the Minimall)

:: BUILT BY MEANRED ::
:: MADE POTENT BY GOOD PEOPLES ::

RSVP for all 3 nights here: http://www.meanredproductions. com/shanghaid


Shanghai is a destination, a metropolis, a noun. But personally, we prefer Shanghai as a verb. Back in the day of saloons and scurvy, ship captains used to drug / kidnap their sailing crew. When there was a shortage of seamen, any able-bodied fellow who wandered into the wrong saloon, or drank with the wrong companion, could wake up with a mysterious hangover onboard a ship headed to the Far East...stuck on the high seas for the next 7-10 months. The practice was known as "Shanghaiing” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ Shanghaiing

Fast forward to 2009: Just when the CMJ marathon has lower Manhattan in a death grip, MeanRed and friends are sneaking off to Chinatown, celebrating the best underground sounds in a dim sum restaurant under the Manhattan Bridge. We're kidnapping the music you thought you knew, kidnapping the expectations you may have had, and bringing the whole thing with us on a voyage to the place where East meets Best.

Join us for a three day MeanRed marathon at 88 Palace -- good music, gold dragons, red wallpaper, pretty people, pork buns. We are passing dim sum dishes throughout the night, serving up drink specials when you need it most, and putting on the best and brightest of NYC.

Dusting off those dancin' shoes...

Hello world! I'm up rather early after a fun night of live music...I went to the Dead Weather show with my buddy Lyndsay and we really had a blast. My favorite John C Reilly (Dewey Cox!) was in attendance...but I only was able to admire him from across the room. Lyndsay snuck a pic on her iPhone....can you tell which one he is?!




Anyhooooo - there's another evening of music tonight at the Purple Lounge! That's right, it's my monthly dance party COMPACT DISCO! I'm really excited to get up and select the tunes for the first part of the night. I think I'll do some singing too. It's a free party and we have 2 for 1 well drinks until 11pm! I hope to see you there...any requests??

OH! I almost forgot! We made Flavorpill! http://www.facebook.com/l/;flavorpill.com/losangeles/events/2009/8/26/mean-red-productions-and-hang-the-djs-present-compact-disco
