Thrilled about this! I'm one of the fools who didn't purchase Stevie ticket early enough & missed it. So this has just put a smile on my lips & some pep in my step

Such a choice idea. I think there needs to be a manifestation on the corner of Washington and W. 14th too !

Hey Bobby, Don't know what our summer is like yet. We have so many things up in the air right now but we really want to get there sometime in June. Captain Jack's of course. Gennaro is torturing. He wants more landscaping around his grave. He is no longer satisfied with the flower treatment. He now wants trees & shrubs! So if you see him at "Bar Rush" tell him I'm on it. Legendary birthday by the way. Everyone is still talking about it. AND LOOK OUT! Last night at Cheezwhiz Miss...

Bobby, we miss you and problemstown and really enjoy your updates. Though summer plans are still being finalized, we are thinking of coming up for September 11 week - it looks like it'll be really something to leave town for, and ptown is beautiful then. If we'll be too busy to make it then, we would alternatively come in August, but that's the worst time I know besides July 4. Are you returning to NYC at any time in July? Would love to know: What is that new dishy paper there? Is Billy Rene...

Re: Rice Queens - The Anne Rice topic
Agreed S'tan... I have to admit I am fascinated by this whole thing. So fascinated, in fact, that I, too, actually looked up her response on Amazon.com. In it she likens her writing to a "virtuoso performance." That is simply hogwash from an over-stroked ego. Very few artists have the strength of a Picasso to edit themselves. Another part of the problem of course is that she has dug her own grave by creating the Vampire Chronicles in the first place-- thereby doubly inviting those "it's not...

Hey Jo Jo, Great News! I love the concept. A few years ago Chi Chi and I were just taking a romantic little stroll around Marie Lavoe's grave. I had my camera and snapped a picture of her crypt.

And the other pictures I took there that day didn't have it either, only her grave. Very strange. You...

What we know so far about the circumstances around his death. He was at Burning Man, which he looks forward to all year. He fell and hit his head, thought he was okay, then a few hours later went into a seizure and died. This is being looked into by the Reno police. I was just talking with Paula, the Swedish Housewife, about the logistics of that, a dead body at Burning Man. We agreed that Adam would want to go in The Burn at the climax.

Re: Adam Goldstone - RIP, VIP our beloved "mista bitch"
Anna I just heard that he fell in the shower in his motel room, but felt okay so he did not have the seizure till three hours later. So I guess that means he could have been on his way to the festival. But I did hear that he died AT the festival, I'll update here when I know more.

What a great guy and a terrible shock. I just saw him at Motherfucker recently and he was as warm as ever though I hadnt seen him in years. I remember his party at Jackie 60 for a gay clone parody record he did - it was very funny and so was his show. One night we had a Jack Daniels drinking contest and for 2 little guys we really put it away. Condolences to his extended family here and to his blood family wherever they may be.

Re: Adam Goldstone - RIP, VIP our beloved "mista bitch"
Other than through his glorious talents and that those who care for this gem of a man are certainly a reflection of his beauty, it is through these Boards and a few nights out over the years that I know him. Thus we have a premature darkening of a wondrous light in this city. My heart goes out to all of Adam's family and friends, may he rest in peace.

Stinger, Thank you for remembering that! The night was called "Up All Night, Can't Make The Gym" (named after one of Adam's records). It was Adam's reaction to the shirtless gay drug addicted clones from Chelsea. The stage set was the David Barton Gym locker room. There even was (if I say so myself) a genius method go go performance by David Barton and I. Adam performed "Up All Night". It was such a fun night. Luckily it was captured for the Jackie 60 Movie. I saw some rough cuts of it, it...

I, too, am stunned and shocked by the news. Adam and I first met when I was doing "Disco Interruptus" in 1990 at the Roxy... he was working a daytime office position there, just out of college. He was a brilliant, intelligent man-- a great DJ and musician, a wonderful writer, a perennial wit and he truely had a heart of gold. He would pop up in the oddest of places and at the most diverse parties and had the sharpest of minds--nothing escaped his notice. I always enjoyed any few minutes of...

sad....... the last time I saw Adam was almost 1 year ago, we spent most of the night talking about burning man, he had just returned and was showing me photos on his camera, and trying to convince me to attend. He was very passionate about it and said that it had changed his life. Somehow the fact that he crossed over at burning man puts me at ease, this was his journey, he followed his heart, and finally returned home.

Im still in such shock about this. Adam was SO supportive of my work and me. I cant believe he is no longer with us. I have always been grateful to him for all the attention he gave to click. I found him to be such a great presence in nightlife. Although I will miss him terribly, I do get comfort knowing that he was at one of the greatest parties on the globe doing what he loved.

I just thought of Adam today..... my ipod was on random play and hit the Peech boys as I plodded onto the pedestrian N train... it reminded me of this daft night chez Goldstone.. where I shouted out ole acts (that I listened to on import back in Liverpool)and Adam played on cue! "Peech Boys!" "Sharon Redd!" "Change!" , "Was Not Was!" ... it was a riot... and amused us both no end...... Am sure he's playing that very same 'game' with Larry Levan at this very moment!
