Eagles of Death Metal, Brother Ali, and Ted Leo played a SPIN magazine party at Highline Ballroom on Tuesday night, and then Santogold, Izza Kizza, and Switch played a FADER party at Studio B on Wednesday.

Mel D. Cole was at Fader - on stage, backstage, and in the crowd. He was at Spin too. More photos of Ted Leo by Tod Seelie @ Flickr, and a review of the SPIN party at Dfactor.

izza kizza suck worse than non-alcoholic beer. i watched the crowd surge toward the stage and quickly but casually head back to the bar, regretting their pavlovian flock toward anything that Fader promotes.

i felt that this remark of mine was worth copying from an earlier post

trees are pissed they're being wasted on rags like these. watch your backs suckas, the trees are going to fight back.

i was at the spin party... it was a great time. free whiskey and heineken made up for the fact that eagles of death metal sucked.

Diplo backed santigold for her performance at the Fader party and then he basically DJ'ed the rest of the night after switch dropped a couple songs.

it's funny that Bao and I got pretty much the exact same shot of Ted flipping the bird (click my name for it).

I was at the Fader 51 show. don't be so harsh these are upcoming artist ....Izza Kizza is signed to Timberland so he can't be that bad. He probably just needs to work on his performance. and Santagold has been performing for a loonng time and was not that bad either. I am sure you will hear a lot more from these artist. After these two performances were done the whole club cleared out.. so obviously they were being supported big time...Shout out to Fader for recognizing real talent and having upcoming artist perform.....biiigup!
