walk over the Brooklyn Bridge


check out this link by Mathias Kirsh, it could have been written by me because on the 22 of April we also walked over the Brooklyn Bridge coming from the Hotel Chesea where Andi Warhol and many other famous people lived and slept

A Sunny Day in Brooklyn Town!

It was a beautiful sunny in New York - perfect for a long walk through the city. From our hotel, The New York Marriott Marquis, Times Square, we walked all the way to and across the famous Brooklyn Bridge - to the borough that is the most booming in recent years.
Highly recommended is an exhibition currently on display until January 31st at the Brooklyn Museum called "Who Shot Rock´n´Roll". It features photographs taken by various artists showing legendary musicians at the very beginning of their careers.

A Sunny Day in Brooklyn Town!
What you see are are intimate, sometimes frail and unusually innocent looking faces and postures from people like Aretha Franklin, James Brown, David Bowie, and Wilson Pickett.
Bassist John Lee has founded his own record company, Jazz Legacy Productions. The artist roster consists of Cyrus Chestnut, Steve Davis, Sharel Cassity, and The Heath Brothers - all of whom are performing tonight at the Blue Note so we have another exciting night of great Jazz to look forward to!
