Around 7:00pm. Toast to dear Adam and catch up. It's unbelievable to me how this past year has flown by since we all heard of Adam's passing.

Gerard was very low key. Very talented and right up there in the Pyramid Club royal pantheon but he never pushed it. Very sweet man.

There was no line between his life and his art, like many of the more obscure "greats" of the analog age his constant self recreation went largely undocumented. Godspeed, Mr. Fashion

Oh, Mr Fashion! What a legend. I'm posting a bit late, but funny I had been thinking about MR. Fashion because on the first episode of Projecxt Runway this season, Stella, the biker chick * chose trash bags for the "gristedes Challenge" and then found that they were falling apart. All I could think was, Mr. Fashion would have won that challenge - and he would have told anyone, you want at least 3-mils thick if yoiu are going to make a dress from a black plastic garbage bag!

Gerard Little's birthday is Monday, April 26. He would have been 55. I grew up with Gerard in Hackensack, NJ. Gerard, Kevin Richardson and I spent those deeply formative years from 12-20 as our own clique and each others' biggest fans. We delivered newspapers, went to movies, worked at BK, danced at CYO's, chased girls (sometimes each others) and began the transformation from what we were born to what we were born to be. Gerard's mother, Juanita, was Frankie Lymon's sister. Gerard has four...

This is a real East Village story. Yesterday my wife sent me out to get... No, not milk. Not bread or eggs. She said, "Go to Enchantments and get me some High John The Conqueror root". I went but they were closed. But being the East Village there was ANOTHER herb/magic store a few doors down. I went in and asked the girl for the root. She said that they were out and then I asked what it was for. She said, "Your wife obviously needs it for a spell". "A spell?" I asked, "What kind of spell?"...

Was that at Flowerpower? Those girls are witches. You're lucky you got out of there with your own balls intact. From Wikipedia: The plant is known in some areas as bindweed or jalap root. It has a pleasant, earthy odour, but it is a strong laxative if taken internally. It is not used for this purpose in folk magic; it is instead used as one of the parts of a mojo bag. It is typically used in sexual spells of various sorts and it is also considered lucky for gambling. -So Daddy, Empress is...

That was it Bobby. And there were these other few extremeists around that would inspire and encourage you too. Plus hardly any touristas or people just looking for lighthearted entertainment would ever venture in to the zona because it had been abandoned by the cops, was overwhelmed with junky/dealer feeding frenzies in the middle of the street, and there was just this general harshness the beauty of which you kinda had to earn the right to revel in and savour.
