Peter Voelker put on a pretty terrific show yesterday. His Meow Meow house gallery was packed wall to wall with people at the peak of Shake It to the Ground last night and I think it’s safe to say a good time was had by all.

The whole thing was a resounding success and has inspired me to do something along the same lines. I hereby announce the creation of Secret Gallery. Shh, don’t tell.
