Vintage Idaho Neon

Idaho has a wonderfully weird array of vintage neon signs. I remember a bunch of them from my childhood driving around the state and recently came upon a flickr group of the best ones.

Everybody Dance Now

Social dancing from around the world
photographed by Martin Parr between 1972 and 2008

With a small run of 2000, this book is very hard to get as it was published by a Dance Foundation and destined solely for the Foundation's magazine subscribers. It is now officially out of print. It will most likely appear on secondary markets really soon, so this is an opportunity to get a pristine SIGNED copy.

Designed by Pentagram/Abbott Miller, 'Everybody Dance Now' is a portfolio of photographs by Martin Parr that capture the universal delight in getting down. Photographed over the past 35 years, the color-saturated pictures, including a few early black and white images, document the twisting, twirling, shimmying and shaking that take place in nightclubs, dance competitions, parades and celebrations from Blackpool to São Paolo.

The Anniversary Party

The NewCityMovement 10th Anniversary Party was a huge success last Saturday. Thanks to everyone who came out, even waited in line to celebrate and dance with us at W! Thank you to Nick James for his musical and emotional support and to Dave Newkirk for taking these cool photos. I've put all of them in a gallery here. I am going to upload my DJ set this week to download for anyone who wants a copy. Again, I had a wonderful night and I hope you did too. Don't miss our guest Lars Behrenroth from L.A. via Germany next month on May 17th.
