Re: Beams to New Orleans
I will be closing this topic a few days after today's Katrina anniversary, as well as the pre-Katrina "Postcards from New Orleans" topic in Elsewhere. Your thoughts on this anniversary are welcome, I myself am quite numb. Our last trip to New orleans was a month ago. It was a special trip because we got to deliver the last costume for the theater project we've been doing in St. Bernard Parish in person. Johnny and I went to meet the entire SHINE PRESENTS troupe for happy hour at Molly's on...

Re: Nico
I saw the Warhol one. It was REALLY good! Lots of new footage and photos etc. I remember "working" with Nico at The Squat Theater. Calling us up late at night to borrow $20. Remember she had a son Hattie? What ever happened to him?

Re: Bibliophile Part 2
I'm reading "The City Of Falling Angels" by John Berendt. If you liked "Midnight In The Garden Of Good And Evil" you will like this! AND IT TAKES PLACE IN VENICE!!! This wikipedia review doesn't make it sound very interesting but it's a real page turner like his other one.

Re: Dean Johnson - Death of a Legendary Legend
I've been very disturbed by all of this since my friend Roger DeGennaro, a Howl festival organizer, told me about Dean's death last night. So I must, like all of you, share my memories of Dean in order to ease the sadness I feel. I met Dean when he was doorman at the Boybar back in 1983. You couldn't NOT notice him, with that too-tall, lanky frame and basso profundo voice (he could have been the bastard son of Living Theater co-founder Julian Beck!)--not to mention his cutting wit and...

Re: Dean Johnson - Death of a Legendary Legend
The first time I saw Dean was in a movie, MONDO NEW YORK that was played at an independent movie theater in Tokyo, 1988. Before Dean/Velvet Mafia, I have never seen anyone who said/sang "Fuck You" to such slow Jazzy music and that was just so cool. Since then, you have been quite an ispiration to me, Dean.
