ok just a bit more about the Sunday School party, because I am really excited.

Sunday School Matinee is Ultragrrrl/Sarah Lewitinn’s all-ages version of her infamous Stolen Transmission Party (5-Time Paper Magazine Nightlife Award Winning party, inspiration behind many songs, the subject of at least one book, the place where a few couples met and later wed, and thrown with her party partner KarenPlusOne/Karen Ruttner) — which hosted performances by bands like Hot Chip, The Horrors, InnerPartySystem, Maximo Park, The Futureheads, Tokyo Police Club, and more.

Sunday School Matinee has been specifically created for teens in the NYC area that don’t get to experience cool bands and DJs because almost all the venues in NYC are 21+.

Sunday School Matinee is doing something that’s never been done in NYC before: It’s a tastemaker-type party with on-the-verge bands, celebrity DJs, dancing and TEENAGERS that come every week with the hope of seeing something new. It’s a place where they might expect to see a secret show, a rare acoustic performace, or see someone from their favorite band playing a special DJ set.

I totally back this whole concept and I hope you’ll help me spread the word. If you have friends, siblings, cousins or anyone (!) invite them out to this. And even if you are over 21, I think we have a chance to make something really cool here and I hope you come support it as well.
