Australia’s famed comedian Carl Barron is performing live in NYC at the Bleecker Street Theater (Now through April 24, 2010 ONLY!).
Featured twice at Montreal’s Just for Laughs festival – and the headliner of the Just For Laughs national tour, Barron is apparently a legend in Australia, where his DVDs have sold more than Robin Williams and Eddie Murphy combined! Melbourne’s The Age newspaper said “the audience was in a state of uncontrollable joy.” And the L.A. Times called him “a gifted physical comic and monologist”.
Ryan Cabrera and Audrina Patridge have split - according to E! Online.
The pair have been dating for the past few months.

To celebrate the arrival of Spring, Yantra Mat USA is offering a $20 discount on all medium sized mats! The mats, regularly $69, will be sold at special price of $49 now through April 17, 2010 only. Medium mats will also come with a free carrying case!!!
What is the Yantra Mat?
The Yantra Mat (a “spike mat“) is a more consumer-friendly version of the ancient Indian nail bed, and is studded with 8,800 non-toxic ABS plastic spikes. The spikes feel sharp, but with your body’s weight distributed evenly over the mat, an intense sensation quickly gives way to a comforting rush of heat. This natural response to acupressure comes from increased circulation, which lowers blood pressure and soothes aches and pains. Within minutes, this improved blood flow triggers a deep sense of tranquility and relaxation.
Since launching in mid-December 2009, Yantra Mat USA has been featured on the Tyra Show, Daily Candy, New Beauty Magazine, Mind Body Green, Vital Juice, and more!
Whether you want to spice up your yoga routine, ease your back pain, or feel more centered and stress-free, the Yantra Mat is perfect for you!

Attended one of our music clients’ gigs? Then tell us what you thought! I want to hear from YOU.
In September 2008, I decided to follow a friend’s advice and open up my blog to non-clients. Now, anyone who has a cool New York event they want to promote can just shoot me an email (Termeh@AMP3pr.com)and I'll consider featuring it on my blog! I'm also always on the lookout for interesting New Yorkers to interview - so if you know anyone, send them my way! Thanks for your readership.
