MASERATI
New York City and followers of the indie-music scene are mourning the tragic death of drummer Gerhardt “Jerry” Fuchs, who died on Sunday from a five-story fall down an elevator shaft in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. While riding in a manual freight elevator during a benefit party, the elevator got stuck between the fourth and fifth floors. A passenger riding with Fuchs had managed to jump to the fourth floor, but on one of Fuchs’ attempts to jump to the fifth floor, his clothing caught on something in the passageway and he fell to the bottom of the elevator shaft.
Alex Frankel, Fuchs’ roommate and singer of the band Holy Ghost!, of which Fuchs was the drummer, arrived at the party shortly before 1AM to find the distressing news that someone had fallen down the elevator shaft.
Don’t you detest those hateful neighbors that call the police to shut down your party? Just at the time when it’s really getting popping and the booze starts kicking in, the flashing lights swoop in and kill your night. But superstar and seemingly invincible Paris Hilton said she’s not having it.
Monday, Paris threw a big “welcome-back” party in her new neighborhood, the Hollywood Hills. The party went until 4 a.m. the next morning- and nosy neighbors called the police. They thought they won, but the young wiper-snappers got the last laugh. When they woke up, a half-dozen cars, including two Bentleys, two Maseratis and a $1.4 million Bugatti Veyron, had been keyed and egged. Now that’s gangster.
