Another Big Blowoff

Last night's NYC Blowoff was even better than the last one, as positive word of mouth from October's event brought in a huge crowd, causing a waiting line outside the Highline Ballroom and lines almost as long inside at the coat check and restrooms. Congrats to Bob Mould and Rich Morel for creating what will surely be a long-running Manhattan must-do.

The high point of the night was DJ Rich Morel debuting his latest collaboration with Cyndi Lauper, Same Ol' Fuckin' Story, during which Cyndi joined Rich in the DJ booth, prompting a rush of fans brandishing cell-cams. Big fun! Other big names were in the house, including NGLTF executive director Matt Foreman with his partner Frank, and most of the cast of The Ritz, which closes tonight. (Thank dog I finally saw the show on Friday night!) Last night Ritz star (and Tony nominee!) Kevin Chamberlin told me that he used to be a coat check boy at the Saint! Photo recap below.
