In what can only be compared to the Beatles 1964 arrival in New York, DJ Ruth Flowers (aka Mamy Rock) will finally be spinning right here in the Big Apple. The 69 year old grandmother has gained notoriety across Europe for being, well, a DJ who is also a 69 year old grandmother, but has somehow never paid a visit to New York for work or pleasure. That's about to change this week, as Mamy Rock has a big gig lined up. So will she be spinning at 1OAK, Greenhouse or the Boom Boom Room? Guess again. Flowers has been booked for the Carter Burden Center for the Aging's Fall Benefit. [WSJ]
