That's why we love our Daddy, the absent-minded professor.

Anyhoo I'll probably go the Page memorial. Linda sent me that note also. I never knew her personally and was only introduced once, but I've always been intrigued and I'm definately a fan. See everyone there.

In February 2002 Flloyd, Ingrid and myself recorded our very first song as 3Puen (the 3 is silent - pronounced PYOON). Flloyd wrote the lyrics to "Page" and we'd like everyone to take a listen. The mp3 and artwork at available at:

We miss you Page.

Daddy went last week but not this week? There was a suspicoius absents of Jackie people. Where was everyone? It was today and you were missed.

It was great to see all the other people who crawled out from under rocks to be there.

I ended up having to DJ an early party (@ Bergdorf). I'm sure Page understands. A girl's got to make a living.

Linda and company did an amazing job of celebrateing Page's life and work. I really feel like I just saw a brilliant documentary.

We should try to do these tributes to people while they're still alive.

Truely a celebration of all things Page. The slide show, Josef Astor's words, Page's mother's references to her as "my little girl," and Antony's version of "In My Little Cubicle" moved me enormously.
Of course it is always a treat to see Linda Simpson in full drag in the afternoon. She did a great job in organizing the memorial.

It struck me that most transsexuals strive for anonymity, and normality (and who can blame them), but Page was cut from a different cloth. She was, in her own words, always "hissing at conventionality." She chose a difficult, uncertain, yet glorious path. The word "hero" has been over-used a lot lately. But that is exactly what Page was. And I will miss her.

Page is in the new Joel-Peter Witkin retrospective exhibition coming this spring. I saw a sample of the photos on zonezero.com, very haunting.
Long Live Page!

I thought of you the other day when I was walking on Avenue A. I cannot believe it has been three years since you left, wish you were here to stir up some trouble and bring some life to New York's night!
Miss you Page!

I'm sure she is stirring things up wherever she is.

I think I was there that night at Jackie 60, it's all a blur now but I remember a Page performance in the early 90's. Bobby you really need to write another book!
I think this was the "birth" piece she did.

Thank you Casey for the suggestion. It's already a folder on my desktop. You seem to have a sharper memory than I because you reminded me that it was the "birth" of the pillow case look at Jackie 60. She had not premiered it in the city before that however I believe they showed her wearing it in a video in, another city, at her memorial. Hatches?

Bobby, I think you need to write a book on the past legends of New York. There really needs to be a book on the 80's and 90's scene beside the all known murder case of 96, which helped destroy the underground of New York.
You have enough pictures that need to be seen!

You are correct Bobby that was the first premier of that outfit, before she went to Jackie she popped into Dick's Bar wearing that. I told her she was out of her mind! but loved her anyway. She actually told me what inspired her to make this outfit, but now I can't remember what it was. A few months after, she showed up with the same concept but using a printed pillowcase, she told me this was the "Summer version". I miss Page.
