El Brian: Hello, I’m El Brian. I’m in Dublin, Ireland & I have blisters on my feet.
I got to New York on Friday & was greeted by Tony and a shitload of rain. We met up with Gordie, an ex-Denver dweller and super rad dude, at a dungeon style basement that is home to 9 broke-ass Williamsburgers (including Gordie and our old pal Clay Kessack). Later that night, we ended up at a bar called Union Pool. Me & Clay found a couple super nice umbrellas that transformed us into some pretty high class dudes. That night I slept on what may be the world’s largest air mattress, it ruled (thanks Katie Deacon).
Tony: Union Pool is set in the heart of Williamsburg, Brooklyn. It is essentially a cesspool of ‘bridge and tunnel’ kids (willy-burg slang for New Jersey folk), and expired hipster trends. Brian and Clay kept talking about shot-gunning beers to show these New York pussies who’s boss, but that never came to fruition.

Tony Farfalla (editor of FM) and DJ El Brian (resident DJ for FM) recently arrived in Europe for a detailed exploration of the great land across the pond. The trip is partially rooted in a FM-related assignment for the next issue, and partially in the fact that Tony and Brian seem to create sufficient amounts of awesome fun wherever they go. After some deliberation, they agreed to keep a somewhat up-to-date blog detailing their travels. If they never actually post anything, we apologize, but realize that they are probably lost, dead, or sleeping in.
Hasta Luego, homies.
Our buddies from Chicago are coming into town to blow your mind. Flosstradamus will be shredding up four turntables at Beta on Friday, May 22nd, along with FM DJ El Brian and Soup. Giveaways by Alternative Apparel, and drink specials from 42 Below Vodka.
Party starts at 9 pm. Tell the door guys your with FM Magazine and get in for $5, otherwise it’s $10.
We will be giving out a bunch of tickets through our myspace bulletins in the next week, so stay on that shit.
Excellent,
