THE CONQUEST
What better way to celebrate a birthday then with burgers and beers?!?!? Well, that’s exactly what my burger lovin‘ buddy Adam wanted to do for his birthday. Adam organized a celebratory meal at one of my fave burger joints, The Trailer Park in New York City. Known for their kitschy decor and tasty char-grilled burgers, it makes a great location for a burger party.
THE BURGER
Living in New York, outdoor space is not only a commodity, it’s a scarcity. That means ain’t a lotta folks grillin’ in the backyard. Which also means, if you want BBQ’d ANYTHING you have to go out and get it. If its a backyard bbq style burger you crave, just like your pops used to make, head over to The Trailer Park. They make the best one in the city. I would even venture to say, they have the best turkey burger in the city!!! The Trailer Park has been reviewed now 7 times on the site so I won’t force a regurgitation on you.
THE ROCK
When I’m not out burgering it up, I’m at work at Artist Arena. We are a fan based company who provides fan clubs and enhanced ticketing experiences to artists. It’s a lot of fun and when you help a fan get to meet a band they love its a special moment. It’s even better when it’s a band you love and they turn out to be some of the nicest people. After slammin‘ a burger for Adam’s birthday, I got to be a part of the Night Ranger meet and greet at their NYC show.
I have to admit being a fan-boy here. I remember driving around Detroit in my car and jamming Night Ranger tunes whenever they came on the radio. I’ve been a huge fan for a long, long time and it is not only a pleasure but also an honor to be working with them and helping fans to meet the band. Rockstardom, which they have certainly earned, has not gone to their heads at all. They were some of the friendliest, nicest and eager band members I have ever met. I barely managed to hold it together but saved myself from having a Chris Farley moment. The band put on a tremendous show full of high energy, amazing technical abilities and great song work. I had a freaking great time and can’t wait to see them again.
