So yes, I won another concert from my favorite radio station, 98.7!\u00a0 They are the best!\u00a0 Won an invite to the Penthouse Party for New Politics to see them perform 4 songs just for us.\u00a0 Free pizza, free liquor (although the bar was limited they did have Vodka!) and the rooftop was coooooollllllddddd, in downtown Hollywood where their Penthouse is located in the lovely historic Hollywood Towers.

Took Eithne as this time she she was free and wasn’t going to pass up another opportunity to have fun!\u00a0 Lucky me, my sexiest outfit is pants!\u00a0 Eithne got really chilly in her summer dress, but we found the warmest place on the roof and even had a great view from it!<\/strong><\/strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n

Darren from 98.7 introduced the band and ask them how they got to where they were.\u00a0\u00a0 Apparently they’re from Denmark (which is just about twice the size of Massachusetts…the red dot on this US map!) Although the band didn’t speak with any recognizable accent! <\/strong><\/p>\n

There was a contest and they submitted a video, but they needed another song so they whipped out another.\u00a0 There were <\/strong>962 bands entered in the contest.\u00a0 And they were 1 of 4 who won.\u00a0 They’d been on tour for 18 months ever since it happened. <\/strong><\/p>\n

This is a clip from the party….

New Politics, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

They were absolutely a blast to watch perform.\u00a0 Just frickin ADORABLE!\u00a0 The energy was amazing.\u00a0 Eithne went up to the singer after and asked him if he’d studied interpretive dance.. I was so proud she was so bold! <\/strong><\/p>\n

She said to me, “Wow, they won out of 962 bands!”<\/strong><\/p>\n

I said to her, “Screw that!\u00a0 I’m amazed there are 962 new bands in Denmark!”
