Rock Bands Don't Play In Peoria!

The Good: Local boy Lee Dahlberg got his cool jewelery brand "ROCK BANDS" featured on CNBC's THE BIG IDEA With Donny Deutch last night in a segment called "Will it play in Peoria?" (A play on a term meaning "Will it be a hit with mainstream America.")

The Bad: Although the people who were asked loved the look, when they got to the $250 price tag, the people in Peoria were turned off.

It really doesn't matter though as Lee has whored out his brand in every gifting suite from Volleypalooza to the Super Bowl getting them on some very big celebrity wrists.

My View: FUCK PEORIA! If it's good enough for Christian Slater it's good enough for me! I mean really....didn't you see Pump Up The Volume!

Celebrity Photographer SETH BROWARNIK Takes the plunge!

Celebrity photographer Seth Browarnik (seen with me here in one of our various "let's be weird" pictures) popped the question to long-time girlfriend Melissa Katz (seen with some other guy below) from Ocean Drive Magazine.

On a personnal note: Seth and I started our "South Beach Scene" adventures together around 1999 while we were working for a small format scene magazine called Ego Trip. He then went on the work for severall magazines finally landing at Ocean Drive and Wire Image. Through his outstanding likability and talent for making freinds, he eventually gained more access than any other photographer in Miami. Celebrities coming to Miami would even call Seth to make sure they know what is going on when they came down to South Beach.

Today Seth has two assistants, Peter and Spencer who handle his various "Club" shots while Seth is whisked away to various global locations to shoot. Wether it's travelling with Lenny Kravitz to Brazil during his Live Earth concert or access into the most exclusive Super Bowl events, Seth has come a long way from the time he was shooting live chickens at 9am on the patio at Space.

Congratulations to Seth and Melissa from all of us at A3!

SIDE NOTE: Melissa should keep her name, as few people actualy know how to pronounce Browarnik properly anyway(Bro-War-nik)

Pulse 87: New Dance Music Radio Station Launches In New York City

Ladies and Gentelmen, Dance Music has returned to major market radio.

Playing a mix of Top 40 remixes and the big dance hits, Mega Media in New York City has launched PULSE 87.7 in the #1 radio market in the US. Mega Media is an independant signal broadcasting from the low power audio signal of a TV broadcaster, but covers Manhattan and the surrounding burroughs.

Because of it's TOP 40 Remix and dance "HIT" factor, electronic music geeks I'm sure will bandy about words like "Cheesy" and "Commercial" on various nightlife forums like Cooljunkie.com, Clubplanet.com and talknightlife.com. But in the end, the globally connected dance music culture has found itself a rare addition to its precious few American radio outlets.

In Miami the beat has certainly not stopped as every night after 10pm, Y100 becomes CLUB 100, a beat-mixed popourri of Y100's hit tracks before midnight or broadcasts from various clubs. Then late night, the exceptional Cato K presents his "Club Sessions" show.

Check it all out at Y100.com

Buster Voices Various Characters In The New Video Game: OBSCURE - The Aftermath

I'm a gamer, i can play Halo 3 online getting my ass kicked by 11-years-olds for hours. So when I was asked by a dutch company to voice a series of characters for a video game called OBSCURE: The Aftermath, I jumped at the chance.

In the game I played 3 of the 4 main male characters and a couple of extra voices here and there. Take a listen....or pick up a copy for the Playstation 2 or WII.

Buster Voices The New Sandals Commercial

If you find yourself watching any of the 1400 presidential debates, you may come accross this TV spot on one of the various cable news channels.

Almost Fully Recovered From The Groove Cruise!

It was one hell of a music adventure with almost 400 professional partiers from all over the country. We partied on the ship, on the beach and in Nassau, Bahamas. Only now am I getting coherent enough to blog about it. The bottom line is, if you have ever wanted to go on a cruise, but were afraid it would be too many famalies, old people and DJ's that play the Macerena....then the Groove Cruise is for you.

Don't miss out on the Groove Cruise LA: July 25th-27th.
