Departed Party Planner Baird Jones Gets Another Party

By Michael Musto, Monday, Mar. 17 2008 @ 12:00PM

Categories: nightlife

After party promoter, art curator, and all-around nerd Baird Jones recently transitioned, there was a quickly organized memorial event at the Plumm, but some people were either banned or went there and felt there needed to be yet more hoopla. So Baird is getting another event. The memorial will be at Webster Hall, which Baird tirelessly promoted for, this Thursday, March 20th. As the club's owner says, "Numerous artists and performers who knew Baird will be presenting their own tributes. An open-bar reception, open to the public, will take place from 7-9pm followed by an after-party from 9-11pm." So go on, have another drink on Baird. But don't do any of this for me, mind you. Just put me in a Hefty bag and lean me against the trash.

lulu down syndrome says:

Does anyone feel he deserved this level of remembrance? I remember him as a sort of creepy party crasher who would do anything to get his name in print?

Jack D. Johnson says:

Well LuLu, Obviously your memory is distorted because of your Down Syndrome. Baird Jones happened to be the pioneer of party promoting and an all around nice guy. Baird Jones never crashed a party because he was always the promoter or on the A-list. I suspect that when Baird worked the door at Studio 54 he turned your diseased ass away, that's why you're still bitter.

RIGHT-ON LULU! But perhaps he was "bridge & tunnel" A-list after Studio was available for Bar Mitzvahs. I think Jack needs a drink! (or A.A.)
