DJ Mamy Rock is booking mighty frequent flier miles these days. Ms Flowers returned to Europe from LA where she recorded a track called ‘69’ with Riz, who has worked with Britney Spears. “It’s about being 69, really. You’ll hear it when you listen to it.” (Believe it or not, I will not comment.)

WSJ tells us how Mamy Rock got her act together.
“My grandson had a disco party,” she recalled. “It was frightfully noisy and the lights were flashy, flashy, flashy. I have to say I was absolutely overwhelmed by the joy in the room. I thought this is what the kids need. I said, ‘I could do that, I could be the deejay.’”
Ms Mamy Rocks Ruth Flowers has also worked as a public speaker ‘doing talks on historical events’. Unusually popular at gay clubs, Mamy Rocks usually opens with a little remixed Beethoven, followed by Black Eyed Peas. Precisely the contents of my iPod.
Mamy Rocks often stays up until 5am and adheres to a routine of stretching and exercise, and daily walks. “But I’ve always kept fit. I did the London marathon when I was 57. I’m a crazy woman,’ she says to close out a perfect set.
We’ll let readers know just what happens when Mamy Rocks the house tonight in New York. The New York Social Diary may never be the same again either.
