6/30/20 Smash Magazine
Picked up a copy of the March/April issue of the local Smash Magazine, looking longingly at all the cool shows I missed at the Brooklyn Bowl here due to the pandemic. I would have been at these gigs—Hot Chip, Orville Peck, Asking Alexandria (with Hyro The Hero) and American Aquarium—if not more.
6/27/20 Eggslut
Having moved to Summerlin three months ago, I was feeling a little homesick today for Los Angeles. Headed over to the Cosmopolitan Hotel and had the Fairfax sandwich at the Vegas branch of Eggslut. It worked wonders!
White Castle, 6/11/2020
Nice surprise! White Castle in Las Vegas, connecting me immediately to my Bronx roots (the White Castle on Boston Post Road near Allerton Avenue).
Tarantino’s Vegan, 6/6/2020
Last night Rana and I checked out the excellent off-Strip Italian Vegan eatery Tarantino’s here in Las Vegas: imaginative food (“Chick’n Parmesan” and lasagna with “beef crumbles” and “almond ricotta”) with ultra-positive ambiance.
Arts District (cat mural, T-shirt photos), 5/26/20
Kicked around the mural-rich Las Vegas Arts District yesterday, stopping into the Recycled Propaganda art gallery + store (smart message T-shirts) and dining on the patio at the Latin eatery Makers & Finders.
Stay Fresh and Wash Ya Hands graffiti, 3/29/2020
Pandemic graffiti in front of the Majestic Repertory Theater in the Arts District of Las Vegas, our new home. Rana and I today drove around there and cruised up and down the ghost town Strip. Then we headed west to downtown Summerlin to pick up food curbside at Shake Shack. Times like these are made for fried food…

25 years ago today (Feb 1, 1995), MSO PR opened for business in Sherman Oaks. I remember on that day setting up a Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers cover story with Rolling Stone during his “Wildflowers” tour, and a few days later, a check arrived from Stevie Nicks. She was the first client to send payment from the first batch of our invoices. Stevie may not be a current client, but she remains a striking presence in the reception area of the SRO PR Encino office; she gifted us with this autographed special print back in the early ‘90s at Levine/Schneider PR.
