BROOKLYNITES LAUNCH PARTY REPORT

Me and Marilyn went to The Brooklynites launch party Thursday night @ Brooklyn Industries to have some Brooklyn Brewery beer, meet the guys, and celebrate Brooklyn. The scene was very well put together, with pics from the book adorning the store, and a video documentary of author Anthony Lasala and photographer Seth Kushner's noble quest to put together this book.



The book itself, purchased by your's truly, is a must have for any Brooklyn loving folk. It paints a rich tapestry of what Brooklyn is all about with lush photos, great quotes, and masterful memoirs.


The music for the evening was provided for by another Brooklyn Original, musician/producer Ron Scalzo aka Q*Ball, who spun a great mix of hip rock'n'roll!


Meeting Seth and Anthony was very cool. They were both extremely nice, and from the book I can clearly see that they are extremely talented as well. You can tell they are very proud of their work and that the reaction to it is very humbling.
