N o 1 VIVA LAS VEGAS TURNS 20

Known as the world’s largest Rockabilly event, Viva celebrated its 20th anniversary this year at the Orleans Hotel in Las Vegas. There was an unforgettable performance by burlesque superstar Dita Von Teese, a car show, and music all weekend long. Our favorite had to be the ultra glam 1950’s pool party on Sunday!

N o 2 BLONDIE: KING & QUEEN OF NYC’S MERMAID PARADE

Debbie Harry and Chris Stein of new wave band Blondie reigned supreme as King and Queen Neptune at the annual Coney Island Mermaid Parade. The rain did not stop the rockers from being wheeled in the traditional wicker chair, bringing an authentic New York City punk edge to the avant - garde event.
