Bio
.. Razor Boy Music has been booking New York City clubs and music venues since 1990. Founder Pete Fogel started his career at the famed Lone Star Roadhouse on West 52nd St, where some of his first bookings included up and coming artists such as Blues Traveler, The Spin Doctors, Tori Amos and Aimee Mann. The Lone Star is also where Pete promoted Donald Fagen's unadvertised early 90's shows, orchestrating a reunion with Steely Dan partner Walter Becker. .. .. In 1992 Pete started the live music scene at Le Bar Bat on West 57th St. Pete's bookings from 1992-2003 helped define Le Bar Bat as one of the most successful and long running nightclubs/music venues of its time in New York City. .. .. Razor Boy Music is now booking New York City's oldest rock club, THE BITTER END! .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ...... .. .. .. ..What bands are saying about Razor Boy Music and The Bitter End!.. .. .. .."Booking was prompt and Pete and the gang at The Bitter End are great. I hope to play there again soon!".. -Nina Jankowiczon 1/10 .. .. .."This is an amazing club with a long and storied history, and Pete at Razorboy is a very professional booking agent who runs a tight, well-organized show. The booking process couldn't have gone more smoothly, and the show itself was equally well put together. Great sound, good crowd (you have to manage a good local draw, but can also count on a number of other folks there to hear the other bands), and a great night overall. I recommend this gig very highly.".. -Brent Malinon 12/09 .. .. .."Promoter is great to work with. Very professional! We look forward to more shows at The Bitter End.".. -Sam Hill 12/09 .. .. .."We had a great time at the Bitter End! Pete did a great job putting all the right bands together. He was very hands on and you could tell he was doing his job cause he enjoys music! Many booker/promoters just throw a bunch of bands together with no regard to sound. Pete is not that guy, he kicks it steady, he even stayed for our whole set (played till 3:30am). Would suggest this venue to anyone!".. -Lucid 11/09 .. .. .."Always wonderful to play the Bitter End. I have played at many of these downtown venues over the years- but always enjoy this venue- The setup is great- the Booking agent is professional, swift and wonderful to work with!".. -Antonia Cove 10/09 .. .. .."Fantastic venue, great sound, energetic crowd, organized, and well-managed. Razor Boy Music, Inc., managed the night to perfection, ensuring all bands started on time (or as close as possible), were treated well and compensated fairly. Can't wait to do it again!".. -Spaztikolon 6/09 .. .. .."Playing at this legendary venue is always a treat and Pete at Razor Boy is very supportive of great music. He is quite professional and a pleasure to work with and treats his musicians fairly.".. -Devlin Miles 5/09 .. .. ..
