Sean BakerSean Baker’s latest movie, Prince of Broadway has been hitting up all the film festivals. It was just at Locarno this summer and more recently at Woodstock where it was well-received. Sean shares his thoughts on his last film, “Take Out”, a story based around a Chinese Delivery man, how he came to NYC “right at the end.”, why L.A.ers all look the same, and his 3am karaoke nights in Flushing.
We decided to ask a diverse group of young movers and shakers across the city where they like to hang out. Places that are under the radar, "best kept secrets" if you will. See what they have to say

We're looking for people to work at our locations across New York. We have open calls every Sunday 1-4pm in Flatiron or you can call to set up a time: (212) 620-4960. Details...
Mark Birbaum was born on June 10th, 1977. So was his best friend and business partner, Eugene Remm. Because of the similarity in bdays, these two decided it would be cool to start a club together, hence TenJune was born. Nowandays, Mr. Birbaum can be seen prancing around the “scene” with his posse of wanna-bees models, and sometimes the occasional celebritard such as Lalohan or Kayne. He is helping to make Pink Elephant in southampton THE hot place to be this summer (as well as “the estate” house that he owns with Remm). He is in constant competition with the “other players” aka Noah Tepperberg and Jason Strauss of Marquee and Dune. Well there’s not much else to say about the guy, as he really has added nothing else to humanity save tables stocked with over priced “models” and bottles, and those drummer guys of course….however, we’ve got to hand it to him, the guy knows what to do to get the ladies around him, because let’s face it, making silly faces with a club owner is soooo “sick”, as these kids today would say….
This Mark guy, is hardly any competition for Tepperberg/Strauss. Did u happen to miss this past sunday new york times? Tepperberg and Strauss made night club history. Their club in vegas was the topic for an article that was featured on the COVER OF THE SUNDAY NEW YORK TIMES!!

I mean let’s face that TenJune is a second rate wanna be Marquee. Noah and Jason are innovative and intelligent, Mark is just in it to get laid.
promotorsusa we are not taking away from (our friends) noah or jason, nor what they did for the new york night club scene. We are merely spending time doing something we like to do on this site, which is highlighting the under the radar players of our great city.
Well I think its pretty frickin hillarious myself, |’ve been in this city long enough to know the owners of such places tend to be slimey old men and sleezy creeps with a pretentious rods up their ass’… this guy seems have a bit of character, clearly doesn’t care what anyone thinks of him and knows how to have a good time… I may just pay this tenjune a visit…

I went to high-school with this guy. He was a complete douche — and still is.
