Calling out…

In general i’m not one to really create bad blood or try to judge anyone. I do like to talk shit but on a light hearted basis, keeping things funny and never with malicious intent. So in light of this admission, i’d like to point out something interesting. Touch Clothing promoted a party on September 24th 2005 together with a NY promoter who goes by Mastro. The party was called MANDATORY. Tonight, September 12th 2008, he is hosting an event with the exact same name. This does not really bother me, i just think it is funny that the same promoter recycles a party name like that. I guess it’s done all the time, there is some merit to that statement as well, it’s just funny.

Here is Mastro’s version:

And the party today:

Just this time it’s promoted with Methods NYC. 

Hmmm, speaking of which. I actually know the owner of that company pretty well, as well as people who work there, have worked there and help them out on the regular. All very nice people. Yet another interesting fact struck me this week. 

The new Methods Fall line is out and the Women’s Tees just so happen to have a T-Shirt called “Untouchable”. Now the design is completely different, it’s just curious that the shirt has the same name as a shirt we released 2.5 years ago with Touch Clothing.

And the Methods T-Shirt (designed by the lovely Ladi Dotie):

Now it’s easy to call me a hater, and sure, if you’re inclined to do so, just do it. I don’t care. Because in the end, i’m actually doing them a favor by promoting their products and events. 

Once again, it’s just fun to point out the oddities in life sometimes
