Ok, no more food for FM. New York has TOO MUCH to eat. Waddled over to Tenjune in the Meat Packing District for soundcheck and the venue for our first show for a CMJ Afterparty. We were pretty excited to rock here since we heard some awesome things about the club and Will who runs the spot just told us they recently had Kid Cudi and Wale.
Soundcheck
Just down the street was where our second soundcheck and show for the night was, at SL Simyone Lounge, which was a new hot spot just opened by DJ Chachi.
Tenjune
First show was at 1:30am at Tenjune. The club was super packed, people dancing on couches… madness. The performance was off the hook and we were surprised people knew our song “Girls On The Dance Floor” out here, and that’s a huge thanks to the DJs at the clubs that have been spinning it every week. I wish I got more pics from the clubs but we ended up getting too caught up in partyin’!
SL Simyone Lounge Show
Simyone Lounge was even more packed–wall to wall craziness–and the show was off the hook, we definitely love NY’s clubs and it was a great way to end a long week. After we performed “Girls On The Dance Floor” we headed out to our car and went straight to the airport. Never been so tired in our lives.
CMJ x NYC was insane. Our legs felt like jello and our bellies were full to the max. One thing I love most about early early morning flights is usually the plane isn’t all the way full and if we’re lucky we get a full row to ourselves to just lay out. TIME TO KNOCK OUT.

Thank you to everyone in NY that took care of us and showed us a great time. Too many names to list, and we didn’t even get to see everyone we wanted. We’ll definitely be back to NY on Dec 4th at Irving Plaza for the Party Rock Tour so we hope to see yall then. Tickets are selling out faaaast!
Super big thank you to the MTV IGGY family for always supporting the FAR EAST MOVEMENT and giving us a great outlet to spread FM.
