When we decided we'd throw our FADER #75 release party on the roof of Hotel Chantelle, we were a little bit worried about the weather. But then we said, Hey, you can't go through life worrying about wind and rain, it's not like you go out expecting an earthquake to happen. Then an earthquake did happen. It caused headaches and knocked over CD piles. By end of day, we were way-ready for a couple Budweisers and some fresh air with our special guest performers, the Bay Area's Main Attrakionz. They'd never been to New York, and looked delighted at the skyline and smiled big all through their DJ set. Go see them play live for the first time on the East Coast at the New Museum on Friday! The duo kept smiling and stayed behind the decks when The Rapture's Gabriel Andruzzi took over DJ duties to close out the night. It was warm and didn't rain at all, so we stashed our sweaters inside sweet new backpacks gifted by Onitsuka Tiger. Check out everyone having an honest-to-goodness great time below and on the next page.
