Brandt told me about this Virtual lower east side thing that he was asked to help work on (i think MTV and Vice mag collaborated on it)… and i had no idea what it was… so i looked it up. pretty interesting concept.
you create your own virtual lower east side character, dress them, meet people, party, check out virtual lower east side shows… i don’t have time to do that (bc i’m actually busy dressing myself, partying, and meeting people down here), but i still say check it out

What is vLES?
vLES is a new music discovery community on the web, that is modeled after New York City’s Lower East Side a Mecca for young bands and music. It’s also where artists, fashion designers, and party promoters mix together in a big network of trendsetting, partying, music-loving euphoria. We found those people, asked for their help, and together we created the Virtual Lower East Side (vLES).
