Re: dj johnny dynell
Ricky is "chillin" now. He likes not being in the spotlight so much. He's still doing music. (watch for a "Ricky Martin record" this spring. Ricky has nothing to do with it and is not on it but it's a "Ricky Martin record" for sure. It's a Daddy homage to my ex-band mate). And Andrea, "Club 69" is all Peter's idea. When he called me and asked what I thought about the name I told him I hated it. (He loved the name "Jackie 60") I told him I thought 69 was too obvious and very "Jr. High School"...

I just noticed that this all in a "Johnny Dynell Hopelessly Devoted" topic. How did THAT happen? I love how my name is mis-spelled in my own topic. It figures.

Re: dj johnny dynell
By the way Daddy, Anthoiny Haden Guest misspelled your name in his book too. Is that story in that book true by the way?
Reply
Re: dj johnny dynell
Yes it is. (What's the story? I never read the book. If it has something to do with a gerbal then no it's not true.)

Re: dj johnny dynell
BTW I broke down and corrected the spelling of my name on the advise of The Empress and her very good friends at Google.

Daddy,I think it was something about ChiChi beating up one of your female (or is it "female") admirers in the DJ booth while you were DJ-ing. (However I for one don't believe everything I read, I was just wondering if it was true.)

Re: dj johnny dynell
All hail the Empress! The funny thing is that your last name was misspelled and that you are only mention once or twice in that book.

Angel Moraes, Frankie Knuckles, Junior Vasquez, David waxman Victor Calderone, Johnny Dynell, David Morales, Moby Roger Sanchez, Danny Krivitt, Erick Morilllo, Larry Tee Damn! Where did I go wrong? Apparently the only way to DJ super stardom is... Sammy Jo, Remember that very first DJ lesson that I gave you where I said ALWAYS take good care of your hair if you want to be a successful DJ? Forget it. I was wrong.

All I've got to say Daddy is at least you still have hair. That is quite an accomplishment. I thought that my hair would begin to recede at 25. I'm proud to say that I have a grandfather who still has his hair at 70 something...My Father's side of the family, well, most of them are either bald or receding. But I'd like to shave my head at least once to see if I like it. I notice that a lot of men at my gym are bald. And yet they are young (or young looking) guys who are as healthy as an...

I didn't know where to post so I'm putting this is my own topic. I mean, what the hell is the point of having a topic if can't post in it. Anyay... I'm in Los Angeles sitting by the pool (of course) pretending to be a rock star. It's fun. (I was even wearing sunglasses for about 2 minutes but they drive me crazy and I took them off). I'm here performing with my buds Pink Martini. We are doing 3 (sold out) nights at The Hollywood Bowl. I'm singing back up and pretty much acting like a retard...

Awww I hope it was the Chateau Marmont ... Have fun and post all the dish.... i was online today looking at my friends in LA... what is it about LA that attracted women onto myspace who post endless pictures of themselves in poses.. I think that pretty much sums up LA... the endless poses and the endless not interacting but taking pictures!

When I did wigs for Miss Channing she was delightful. I loved squeezing into a tiny hotel bathroom to cut her wig on her. Afterwards she took it off and out fell her shoulder length white hair and she also lost the souther accent. I asked her where she was from and she said Connecticut but that ever since she played Lorilie Lee in " Hello Dolly " she couldn't shake the southern accent. What a doll. And a few years after that I was standing at the ferry dock to Fire Island and she and the...

Re: dj johnny dynell
Yeah, she's great. And for 87 she still is in great shape... thin and gorgeous! LA is too much. Of course I was having the time of my life but... Well, the first thing I noticed was one gigantic billboard after another for crappy TV shows. Every hideous Fox and Lifetime tragedy, every stupid reality TV show etc. No movies, just TV shows. Then when I got to the hotel I couldn't believe it... there was NO NEWS!!! NO CNN, NO MSNBC, NOTHING! It was just MTV, VH1, EVERY entertainment news show...

Umm, excuse me, isn't this the Carol Channing Topic? Oh, it's not? Oops, sorry.

Re: dj johnny dynell
It's a brand of synthetic fabric that Carol prefers for her stagewear. Halston turned her on to it and she in turn introduced it to Bob Mackie. Carol says "This Johnny Dynell is almost fifty years old, and though it's slightly rough around the edges, the color hasn't changed and it never wrinkles"

Chi Chi just said, "OMG... that is such an 'I can't believe where I am' picture"! She's right. I couldn't believe that I was Carol Channing's stage door Johnny!

Sorry to step back a bit but... Is Carol holding pear butter? Is that her beauty secret or her lube?

No, that was Wembley Stadium. I was at... Roseland. But I did have a fan.

Re: dj johnny dynell
BTW Notice that my CD book is much bigger than Sammy Jo's CD book. Much thicker.

Re: dj johnny dynell
Here we go with the 'size matters' debate. Don't worry Daddy, not only is yours bigger, you've got the horns.

Re: dj johnny dynell
Yeah, I have the horns but I also had a table to put my CD book on. I had to demand it. I don't know how they can set up a Superstar DJ on stage at Wembley Stadium or any other stadium and make the DJ put his CD book AND COCKTAIL on the floor. Look at poor little Sammy Jo... On stage in front of (I'm guessing) 50,000 people looking gorgeous but all hunched over getting his (I'm guessing) Roberto Cavalli white jump suit all dirty. And God knows where he is keeping his (I'm guessing) Gin &...

Not in your rider? Along with the stipulation for a bottle of Chateau Briand 1972 -? Do I have to send you back to This Business of Music by William Krasilovsky? In the context of a concert I guess promoters still look at 'warm up' DJ's like they were some kind of plumbers.

Dynell on Demand. Love it. Especially what it does to the Windows Media Player screen visuals, one part sends little digimatic mushrooms dancing across the screen.

Both Zazoo and I rode the "F" train into work with Daddy this morning. We hadn't seen the previous posts, and didn't expect it, so it was a really funny moment, half asleep thinking about work, and looking up to see Johnny with a magnifying glass pointing at us. What a morning not to have a camera. Satori

Congrats on the Glammy nomination Daddy! But you deserve like 100 awards, at least. Who'd you have to serve? Get ready for loads more groupies, free coke offers, and the vicious glares of the competition.
