Long Island City, 2/25.



Sheep went to the Cosmic Opera

Headlined by Swedish House Mafia’s Axwell, last night at Hammerstein Ballroom.


Sadly, though, he was woefully underdressed (some would say naked).  But he picked up some good fashion tips!

Like when all else fails, go neon. Either with glasses:

Or socks/t-shirt/shoelaces:

Suspenders:

Or a vest that you stole off a crossing guard. (This one might be a little difficult for sheep to get. ‘Cuz he’s not very big, see.):

He could also try a mask. Either a feathery one:

Or something more Phantom -like (side note: that dude was in a full tux):

If he wanted to go fancier he could rock a gold cape:

Some glowing earrings…:

Or maybe just a tutu. He’s got a couple of those lying around, actually:

Sartorial choices of the audience aside, there were  some cool visuals that were actually part of the production. Like the lights:


Aerialists (who made out and made the Jersey boys sooo happpppppyyy):

And Axwell:

Missing from the night: the promised “plot” of the opera. But that didn’t stop Sheep from staying about five hours to *dance* *dance* *dance*, which was still sadly not long enough to see the simulated snowfall (also, poor poor Jon Pareles of the Times. He sounds so tired).

But no worries: he’s pretty sure he’ll go to the next one. He’s already starting to stock up on accessories:

Still needed: neon things. Also, things that that light up and/or glow-in-the dark. Donations accepted.



Last night I went to a Yankees Fragrance launch party

And I was wishin’ and hopin’ and prayin’ to get one of the gift baskets that Jeter gives his one-night stands, but all I got was this MLB sports bag:

Not too shabby I guess, but not something I can get much for on eBay, y’know?

side…


to side.

Anyway, the fragrances–“New York Yankees” and “New York Yankees for Her”–were decent, but I’m still confused as to why there is one for women. Although, it’s described as “flirty” and I know that’s what I am when I find myself at a baseball game…

Which is like, all the time, by the way.

Should you want to show your support through scent you can get it in April at Macy’s (1.7 oz and 3.4 oz, $49 and $62).


Samples by day…


 

 Lovahhhs by night.

Last Night Luke Jenner crawled all over the furniture at Rose Bar

Maybe because his wife doesn’t let him do it at home? You know, bad example for the kid and whatnot.

Devising his plan


Hoppin’ on the drum kit

“Con…cen… trate…”


Andruzzi break!

“It’s nice up here!”

“I bet the view’s even better if I stand up.”

“Watch out for the candles!”

Also apparently this happened:



Fred Armisen, again

Because that dude is everywhere. Not that I’m complaining.  It’s nice to see someone be such an unabashed fan of something, anything, in New York, the home of “I KNOW YOU’RE COOL BUT WHAT AM I?”  With Armisen, it’s music.

Here is is last night his Union Pool residency, doing one-man covers of his favorite songs (it involves a lot of looping):


(nerd)

He’ll be there again on February 26. And he takes suggestions.

At Feb 1st’s ASAP Rocky Show, Irving Plaza. Something I learned when he walked by me: He’s soft, like a teddy bear.

Like a Fozzie Bear????

(BRICKKKKK SQUADDDDDDDD!)
