Go Here for more photos from this event by Hayley Proudfoot
The Cake Shop held quite the show last night, featuring many talented local bands. First up were The Beets, next the Magnet City Kids, then Children of the Flower Children and last but not least My Other Friend. The crowd started dancing as soon as enthusiastic Magnet City Kids hit the stage. The dynamics of the 6 piece band really come out when they take the spot light, each member offering a unique performance. Check their site for upcoming shows, I promise it will be well worth the trip!

From: hamptons.guestofaguest.com:
Last Saturday, Aug. 23, we headed to Stone Meadow Farm in East Hampton (the place where Mariah Carey recently got married) to celebrate the 125th birthday of the American Red Cross. On the way in, I was greeted by Rob Rich, and so, we finally meet in person! I also walked in at the same time as my friend Heinz Haas, the tennis pro/teacher who has some BIG things coming up. Russell Simmons, was there, (his jewelry line was one of the evening’s sponsors) as was George Gurley who was interviewing guests on thier favorite moments of the summer. Russell said it was the summer of:
“Barack Obama, as well as yoga, the environment, PETA, the Humane Society and fund-raisers (his July 19 Art for Life event raised $1.7 million).” [The Observer]

1Oak’s Ronnie Madra Actually Isn’t Ready to Settle Down Yet
Update: The model in this picture is Tamiris Freitas who has never dated Ronnie Madra’s. Anyway, we like the picture and apologize for the mix-up!
———–original post—————–
There are a couple rules in life to live by which include, among other things, never getting a tattoo of a significant other on your body. And now there’s another one to add to the list - never make your significant other a fixture of your nightclub’s design. For those of you who have entered past the threshold of 1oak, you’ve probably at some point or another gazed at the picture on the wall with a woman and two bulls. Artistic, a bit bizarre, and of course makes you wonder “who is that?” Well she is none other than the partner and fiance of 1oak partner Ronnie Madra, Alhia. Or was.
A Tipster writes:
Its splitsville for 1oak impresario Ronnie Madra and his hoola-hoop twirling fiancee.
