Impressive: Tweak Bird live at BRIGHT 13
It was really hard to believe that only two guys with a guitar, drums and banging heads could create such incredible loundness and bring it to perfection. With a stage right in the middle of the skate park, some dudes shredding in between and amazing sound (YES, THEY WE'RE SO FUCKING LOUD!) Tweak Bird astounded the BRIGHT audience. A big THANKS to the one who chose this act, very nice one!

Namedropping at Lakai
"Hi Mark. Mark with a 'c'?" - "No, with a 'k'." - "Ah, that's kind of german." (pulling out his business card) "Look at my last name, that's definitely German. As a kid I used to think that Schlosser means that I can build castles. But then this guy came and destroyed my image of being a castle builder and embarassed me by explaining that I'm just a locksmith." Wow, sad and rather intimate stories at the Lakai booth that Mark (with "k" ) Schlosser, National Sales Manager from Torrance tells. "I've been to trade shows for the last 15 years from Magic in Vegas to Capsule in NY and this my first time at BRIGHT. It's so different because I meet all the European distributors and I've learned within an hour more than ever how the business runs over here. This is something you'll never achieve on the phone." And so he smiles again and we are happy, too. Enjoi your stay at BRIGHT!BRIGHT 13 | Summer 2011

Meet'n'Greet | BRIGHT Dinner
After a lovely kick-off at BRIGHT in a definitely packed and busy Stasi Headquarter, everbody longed for some quality time. Lucky us, the hard working trade show victims, to be invited by Thomas and Marco to the traditional dinner. For this summers Meet'n'Greet they chose the KTV in Berlin Mitte, in a nice old building atmosphere. Probably accidently, the neighbourhood is as political as the Stasiheadquarter - the space for the nice cometogether is face to face with the headquarter of the German intelligence service...Anyway - there was a nice turkish BBQ with Haloumi cheese, Koefte and a massive Doener spit. And of course the following party with Dr.Dunks, DJ Kaos, Adam Port, Reznik, Daniel Wang, Djuna Barnes, Skism, Forty, Christian D’or. Thanks for this awesome evening.
