APT IS OPEN TONIGHT! LI'L RICKY'S WILL ROCK FROM 11 til 4AM!
Fam
Sorry for the double mailing this week…but, once again just for clarity, tonight is indeed happening at APT!
Li’l Ricky’s returns for our weekly dosage of the best sound NYC has to offer. Know That!!!
But also know this…
The views expressed here are those of me, Rich Medina, and no one else. There is a new security staff and pat down policy that NYPD is forcing on the venue. The venue has no choice in the matter, so your patience is requested up front. Lord knows we don’t want any trouble with the lovely and loyal patrons who have made us what we’ve become. With that, you should leave all your “extra credit stimulations” at home. I say this because the word is that anyone caught “riding dirty” will be held, and very possibly arrested on the spot. I pass this on for the sake of all of us being able to slowly but surely bring things back to normal after what has been an anything but normal month at APT. I’m honestly unclear as to whether or not the downstairs bar is back in action or not yet, but if not, that hasn’t really been a problem for us anyway. The real issue is making sure that our Wednesday night clientele understand that there is a new security protocol in play, and to ensure that none of our peoples play themselves by trying anything slick, or out of line. If we do our thing like the real party people we all are, tonight should jump off lovely without a hitch! Thanks for the ears, and here’s to it! Check last week’s blog for more event news and info until the next blog. This blog will not go out via email since I’ve already sent one this week and I don’t wanna be considered “spam man # 3,000”.
Tomorrow night come to Love in NYC to check out WHAT THE FUNK?! A new collaboration between myself and DJ Spinna where we combine the power of his James Brown Tribute MAKE IT FUNKY, and my Fela Kuti Tribute JUMP N FUNK!!!! That’s at Love on 8th & MacDougal in NYC on Thursday October 30th!
And lastly, there is NO OPEN THIS FRIDAY at Santos Party House. They are doing their own private Halloween event, and our event is not a part of it. We return on Nov 4th for Q Tip’s LP Release Party for The Reniasance, and Friday Nov 7th for Open, and back in te saddle weekly after that. Hope to see you out soon, and one enormous love.
Respect
