Photos: OKAYSUMMER! 2011 Party Blow Out Photo Re-Cap
<p>We hate to rub it in, but if you missed our OKAYSUMMER! Pop-Up Party this past Saturday (8/20) you slept on possibly the funnest event of the summer (and yes, I mean FUNNEST!). With a sizzling hot cast of music makers, including<strong> Just A Band</strong> (Kenya) - with their FIRST U.S. performance (!!), <strong>Bajah + the Dry Eye Crew</strong> (Sierra Leone), <strong>DJ Gravy</strong> (Rice N Peas, LargeUp), <strong>DJ MoMa</strong>, <strong>Sinkane</strong> - pictured above (Yeasayer),<strong> Little Shalimar </strong>(Chin Chin, Reverend Vince, Big Mono), <strong>Saarid </strong>(Throne of Blood, VHS or Beta), and <strong>Jaleel Bunton</strong> (TV on the Radio) - and dumpster diving pools, girls in swimsuits, boys in Speedos, badminton, ping pong, Sangria, photo booths, fire spinning, fashion shows, and plenty of debauchery - let's just say some of us (ahem...) are still hung over. Two days later. If you were there, relive the action with our stunning photo series, thanks to <a href="http://laurendarling.com/" target="_blank">Lauren Silberman</a> and <a href="http://selfportraitproject.com/" target="_blank">The Self-Portrait Project</a>, below - if you weren't able to make it, these flicks will take you there.
