I just flew in from somewhere and boy are my ears tired!

Here are some photographs I took which I now posted on my blog. Does anyone say photographs anymore? I guess not cause "pics" rhymes with dicks and dick pics has a nice ring to it. Hey, someone just sent me a dick photograph just doesn't cut it.
So first we have Johnny Bizarro on the grass proudly holding up a magazine that calls him the Most Perverted Man in NYC!
Then some bathroom graffiti..or toilet graffiti I guess. Then this giant DNA testing RV was parked on Avenue A and St Marks. When I peeked in I just saw some kids sitting in there. WHAT THE WHAT!
Then one of the many kittens up for adoption at Socials Tees on east 5th st..Jim the Mosaic Man doing his thing on St Marks during the Dance Parade..Another pic from the parade...stilts!
A shot of some novelty items at the City Hall gift shop where John and I went to get our marriage license. June 12th is the big day!
And last but not least the pee phone! Look how mistreated it is...sniff.

Save Charas/Save Cooper march and rally on May 15th.

I went to check out the march from Charas Community Center to Cooper Union on wednesday which was the day after my birthday so i was still drunk when I took these I think..I went to bed at 8am and woke up a few hours later remembering this was going on..so here are some shaky videos and blurry pics of the protest!
Shenanigans will be out of control on Saturday for the big Dance party in tompkins..costumes and drag queens and dance groups galore. So until then...

I LIKE CATS.

Here are some spring time themed pics..none are of cats but I do like cats. My own is at a clinic because he is RADIOACTIVE as he got a shot for his hyperthyroidism this week. So glad this is done with..and right before my birthday too which is the 14th. Overwhelmed with offers of sushi and drinks I will be out every night this week I think. My friends are awesome..and they want a reason to drink!
AS DO I. Been practicing a lot to rerecord stuff for our album..got some advice from an experienced friend before he went back on tour about a few things we can perfect. Which is good..we want it to be the best it can possibly be and he said it's our best yet..very excited!
First we see this sign at a waxing/threading place..NO DOULBE DIP. Then Jamie Otis with one of the comedians at the Waggytail Rescue benefit at Sidewalk Cafe the other night..She was on the show The Bachelor I believe. And a shot of my friend ventriloquist Carla Rhodes whom I love love love! She ended up adopting a dog that night.
Then Dave and Joanie in the dog run at Tompkins..despite the cool nights still summer is coming! And Ray has a new sign up! Rumors abound about his lease but he was busy and in a good mood when I was there so I did not ask him what the deal was with it all. I leave town in about 7 weeks now and am VERY VERY EXCITED! Nothing more fun than traveling and i will be doing that all summer and blogging about it all when I can. Paris is first! A sort of honeymoon after my City Hall marriage..

Summer Breeze..makes me feel fine..la la la la la!

Quick post before I head out into the beautiful day/night to begin my BIRTHDAY WEEK OF MADNESS! It's not until the 14th but I take my cat in for a radioiodine shot Sunday which means I can't go out Saturday and yadda yadda..He will be fine though and I have Friday and all week to be taken out for drinks and shenanigans!
Here we see Cooper Art School protesting the tuition they will soon be charging..and someone was already well into Happy Hour when they put that sandwich sign out.
Then we have a sunny day I spent in Tompkins on the grass where a guy had chinchillas!
Some furniture out on Avenue A over the weekend..and the latest sign from the ex Ballaro bakery on east 5th st..They are going to respect the hood and NEVER BE A BAR! I do like the owners of this place and wish them well.

Annual Pot Rally in Union Square on May the Fourth! WEEEEEEDS!

I headed over to the Cannabis Parade/show at Union Square on Saturday and caught some of the speeches and bands before the smell of WEED got to me and I headed east to meet some friends. I did tape a few speeches, my friends Kill the Band playing and the awesome Matthew Silver  doing his performance art to a group of amused and very stoned kids. Now that's it's warm there is just so much going on to blog about..it's like every day is the weekend but way less annoying!

BUTTLOADS OF PICS AND VIDEOS FROM MAYDAY!

HELLO FREAKS!!!
Here are a ton of pics and videos I took at Union Square, the big march and at Cooper Art School at night where it all turned into a dance party in front of about 25 cops. The good thing about uploading on youtube is it takes so damn long I can do other stuff while I wait like practice!
Tomorrow i lay down some tracks for our 1014 album so Dom Flemons of the Carolina Chocolate Drops and Pat Conte of the Otis Brothers can come over Sunday and lay down THEIR tracks!
Hoping to still get our new album out by July and John's postcard book by October. Both projects are done just about..just need the dough!
So here is a shaky, giggly glimpse of the insanity that was Mayday 2013 in NYC!

I LOVE FUCKING SUMMER IN THE CITY!

Hello and salutations! What a fucking fun weekend this was! So much going on plus the GREAT weather made it amazing! Head out to meet a friend or two and end up meeting a dozen others and running amok!
Despite a wine hangover today I hit Tompkins where I was overwhelmed by the chaos. David Peel was there with his crew singing about yuppies and most of all marijuana since the annual Pot Parade is next weekend! This year it is going to be huge. I am friends with the three comedian hosts..John Murdock, Joey Gay and Jon Savoy. All funny as hell! And besides the headlining act being members of Redman..my friend Killy's band will be performing as well! Check them out here at KILL THE BAND.  So I expect I will know about half of the 600 hundred people that are going to attend this and I will be taking videos along with John who is coming along to watch the madness. I BET IT WILL SMELL LIKE WEED THERE. Amirite? Amirite?
The top pic is some trophy a crackhead was trying to sell on Avenue C last night..he ended up just leaving it when he had no takers. Then there is THAT DAMN BOOK which seems to have been sent to all of NYC as it has appeared inside mailboxes all over town. I meant to grab a copy to read but kept giving them away telling people it was my MANIFESTO.
Then an awesome mural in the hallway of Csquat that my friend did..David Peel doing his thing today in Tompkins, and a mermaid doing some promo stuff for the parade at Coney in June.
Bottom pic is a new sign up at what was Ballaro Bakery for a few months before they closed on east 5th st. That spot seems to have no luck but maybe this will stick.
Looking forward to a warm week of shows, mics, guitar lessons and getting some of my writing critiqued before I go on to edit. Really getting the hang of it now and trying to find my voice to get this book happening.
