Over the last few months I’ve shared some of the updates about the 2nd Annual “Fear The Riff” Expo over on the PiercingMetal.com Website. The expo will be landing at the Brooklyn Expo Center on August 11th and readers of “The Chronicles” will be very aware of this event space as its been the location for the last few years of the NYC Hot Sauce Expo. I’ve documented that event right here on the website as the italicized text will showcase. Since time doesn’t permit me re-doing those posts at the moment, I’m using this posting as a traffic sign to them and you can examine them to your hearts desire by clicking the banner right below.

Important! With this post being a referral to some content posted on PiercingMetal, I’ve disabled the means to comment on it. The link to the main event website is listed however for you to explore any additional information that you might need. Check it out and I hope to see you there.

The Guitar industry is in the midst of a true renaissance. A surge of innovative boutique and small batch crafters have carved out an exceptional market for true tone seekers and gear heads.

Readers of “The Chronicles” and of course the PiercingMetal.com website know that we go to a LOT of different conventions to bring you exciting and colorful visuals that hopefully spark some visiting of these events on your end. Now its time to share another adventure that was done for the PiercingMetal side of the fence with the 2nd Annual Five Points Festival that took place at the Brooklyn Expo Center this year. Clicking the banner down below will transport you to the coverage of the Saturday of that event.

This was a busy week right into the weekend with the Book Expo taking place as May ended and this event rolling in and being held at the same time as the Book Con. Overall I would end up doing three days of the Expo and one of FPF and one Book Con. So as usual with my signpost redirects to the other website, the means to comment on this missive has been disabled. I feel that its better for those interested to comment on the full posts that inspire them to do so on them directly. It matters more at the end of the day. Thanks for reading this website, its my hope that we keep you entertained.

It seems like only yesterday that we were heading over to Williamsburg for the 1st Annual NYC Hot Sauce Expo which was a brand-new event started by our friends over at High River Sauces. That was six years ago and while the first couple of events were discussed on my PiercingMetal.com website, I’ve been keeping them here as a part of the Lifestyle vibe that you get with “The Chronicles” for the last few years.

With this being the sixth such expo for me, I will admit that its gotten a little tricky in how to deliver the fun to your device of choice so I am just going to walk around and see what I see and snap what I snap. The links at the bottom will take you to a number of vendors and their wares. Let’s go.
