Kaleidoscope Opening - 3/31

March 30th, 2006 -- posted in Where the Heathens Go, Visuals

It seems that within the last two years, the art world has made it a point to really push all mediums of contemporary art other then photography. Perhaps since everyone and their dog has a digital camera and practices being the next Andy Warhol/Terry Richardson, it is a smart move. In downplaying photography, when […]

Thoughts on the Duke Lacrosse Team Rape Allegations

March 30th, 2006 -- posted in Tick Tick Boom

I learned about the Duke University Lacrosse Team Rape Allegations 2 nights ago and I have been thinking about it ever since.
I am the first to admit that my attention span is not the best. My life is full of flashing lights and curveballs, but once in a while something will crawl up into […]

Early Punk and New Wave Revisited - 3/31

March 28th, 2006 -- posted in Visuals, Indie, Sweet Indie

Many moons ago, before the internet, when cable access was a major player in the underground going topside, Pat Ivers and Emily Armstrong video taped the likes of Bad Brains, Dead Kennedys, Blondie, Iggy Pop and the Talking Head’s to name a few as they performed in varying NYC hotspots such as CBGB’s, the Mudd […]

The Music that Soothes this Urban Beast

March 22nd, 2006 -- posted in ???

Today I wanted to add 2 more CD’s to my list here on the right and… well, a moment 2 became 32. For an hour I was in some strange trance (soundtrack by Mars Volta no less) and now I feel more complete and some of the pillars of my music collection do not feel […]

“Bring ‘Em Home Now!” Concert 3/20

March 15th, 2006 -- posted in Tick Tick Boom

It’s been 3 years since we’ve sent our troops off to Iraq. 35,000+ military and civilian causalities later, I don’t see much of an end in sight regardless of our Presidents (it hurts to type his name… really… my fingers curl up into little painful knots) jibber-jabber.
The powers that be behind the Bring Them […]

Erotic Art by Patrice Murciano

March 14th, 2006 -- posted in Visuals

This is an interesting gallery of paintings from artist Patrice Murciano. Integrating a variety of styles to mix with a refreshing touch of his own, it is wonderful to see erotic art which is bold and punchy, yet not so contrived. It all makes for a pleasant cocktail.
Thanks to Fleshbot for the heads […]

Going to the Doghouse!

March 10th, 2006 -- posted in Newness, Visuals

I adore Alexis Trice’s work and while I would love a puppy I’m holding out until I get a bigger apartment. In the interim, a fun puppy-on-canvas would be perfect!

Your very own Amada Lepore

March 10th, 2006 -- posted in Newness, Word on the Street, Body Modi

Oh… admit it, you want one.
You can have tea parties and wear matching outfits. You can go shopping together and read the Sunday paper on Sunday night after being out and about all Saturday into the wee hours and you lug the paper home in a vodka induced stupor.
Well, Jeffery always has […]

Scenic is dead!

March 9th, 2006 -- posted in Word on the Street, Where the Heathens Go

According to manager Robert Johnson, Scenic has gone bye-bye :

Please tell everyone! We are closed and no more.
Sorry, no more bands =(
No more Hot Fuckin Pink, no more Michael bartending in his underpants, no more sex in the bathrooms.
We still love you very much though.
No more 8am partying…

Does anyone have the details on this?
