The lobby of the Mercer Hotel was crowded with industry types on Thursday night (July 7): various members of the press, music journalists, bloggers, magazine reps and then two teen boys, who sat with their parents conspicuously.

The miniature mob, at the behest of a publicist, crowded into an elevator -- thick with the smell of marijuana smoke -- in two tightly packed shifts.
