2006 the Year to Remember, Roberto (RIP), on 7 Get Lucky
2006 was a busy party year for us, It all started a few weeks before Christmas in John’s house from Montclair New Jersey. Was such an amazing party, we never experienced any thing like it before. Entering his house, the glow of Christmas shinning through the front door when opened and live holiday cheer being sung in the living room. Definitely one of those parties that went down as one of the best Christmases ever.
The weekend after John’s party, we ended up finally meeting someone at the New Eagle we’ve seen in the scene in many different places through-out the years past. His name was Dr. Robert de la Torre, we remember seeing Roberto at the Original Eagle’s Nest, The Spike, J’s Hangout, The L.U.R.E, The Alter. We chit chatted for a few hours on the roof top of the new Eagle on 28th Street. Drank a few brews with him, smoked a little. He mentions something about a New Years party he’s been having for the past 15 years in his apartment on 42nd Street above the Laugh Factory and hands us a flier (which we still have framed) before leaving.
