Won't you join this douchebag atop Frank Gehry's new NYC high-rise?

(click ad)
He wears Paul Smith. He rocks a Les Paul. His favorite recent movie was "Paul." Won't you join this massive d-bag on the now-open upper floors of the largest residential tower in the Western Hemisphere? Listen as he butchers basic AC/DC chord progressions. At 3am. Long Live Rock, etc. Oh, by the way, that shit you stepped in on Spruce Street was via his French Bulldog. Scanned from the September Gotham, of course.
Previous NYC real estate ad douchebags:
• the Platinum douchebags.
• the Williamsburg douchebags.
• the west Cheslea douchebags.
• the East Side douchebag Mother.
• the Corcoran Hamptons douchebag.
• the Carnegie Hill douchebag family.
• and, the One Brooklyn Bridge Park douchebags.

So is mentioning AC/DC for no reason other than making fun of douchebags on terraces.

Poser.

Poser? I've played drums since I was six, including being named to the all-county orchestra in high school.

I can play AC/DC with one hand.

All country orchestra? Did you play country *and* western? I wouldn't publicise this if I were you.

> All country orchestra?

'all-county' - didn't you read the copy?

it would have been better if the person out there was doing something interwebby, rather than faking some bad chords.

the symbolism of the 'playing guitar in raised position' is an 'erect penis being stroked'. eww...

But truly, for Gehry realestate ventures, it does make you wonder, just WHO is this for and is this the best an ad agency with a budget can do?!
How many people can afford to rent out those floors, and if they could, they didn't get that ability by identifying with that loser poser on the terrace. What's next, Tom Cruise sliding in the living room singing into a brush?
And if it's supposed to be the phallus of guitar is like highrise, chords of righteousness or whatever, even more dated.
To me it just says a Gehry building is outdated, not current with NYC culture today. Avoid it.
