DIY DAYS NYC video: A dinner gathering
For DIY DAYS NYC we ended up doing a different format then the other events in LA, SF and Boston. The NYC event was a casual dinner gathering and an open discussion. The evening was made possible thanks to Storybids and indieGoGo. It was an evening of good food and conversation. Dinner guests included Ted Hope, Faye Dunaway, Lance Hammer, Susan Buice, Paul Rachman, Lance Weiler, Arin Crumley, Joseph Morin, Slava Rubin, Steven Raphael, and Jennifer Kushell.
The following is the dinner broken into three parts.

LOL! Yeah, those Young Folks never should have invited those Geezers!
Extremely informative. Ted Hope (The “old dude”) had a lot of great info. as did everyone else…

The Sixty One takes discovery a step further by combining gaming and community to create an addictive social discovery mechanism for music.
