Hi y'all - went to post the info below and realized that we don't have a topic like this. So post away if you are going to be on TV, radio, on live chat or in some glad rag - our friends all over the globe wanna know!

I'll be talking about what it was like to open a club during the current Hard Times and the current state of NY nightlife post-WTC live on
National Public Radio Friday 9/28 1:20-1:30 EST

and then it gets archived to the WEB at

http://www.npr.org

Local stations are:
WFUV-FM
90.7
New York, NY
(718)817-4550

Well, looks like I'll have the last word!

They've pushed my slot to the end of the hour -
approximately 1:50 - 2 PM so I will close it out.
The whole hour sounds really interesting - its all kind of cultural perspectives on WTC, including ours (nightclub).

Great!

What was the name of the program, please, in order to find it in NPR archives?

You'll see my name on the panel, open that clip (needs a Real Player or Windows Media player) I am the last fifth of the clip, right after the Saturday Night Live writer.

This week's issue of The Observer is fifty essays about September 10. Mine's online at
http://observer.com/pages/frontpage6e.asp

darling,
that was a beautiful essay. did they run the pic of you and daddy?

Chi Chi--

After all these weeks, I finally caught up to this interview (missed it live, on air) ... Totally floored to hear your name, Daddy's and that of "Daddy" repeatedly on NPR's "special report"! So surreal (as you referenced in the interview) especially now, with... going on four months' perspective... I actually listened to a lot of the newscast before forwarding ahead to your bit...everyone was still talking of an uncertain mayoral race, the media went on and on with that "end of irony" story...we were still going to Daddy, seems so far away now... But by the looks of it, the explosion of creativity that you predicted in September is coming to fruition, what with the enormously enjoyable PTM and the Very Jack the Ripper Christmas, which blew my socks off... Here's to an even more (imaginatively)explosive 2002...

Ted n Di are apparently featured in a french TV special.

Our source in the Uk tells us:

quote:
____________________________________________
"We are just one part of a show which includes all sorts of other
stuff. There's an interview with Larry Flynt, some porno stuff, etc.,
etc. However, we get quite a big segment of the show

French TV is generally awful so, although the show appears rather
amateurish, this is actually top quality in France. It was shown on
their most popular channel and had the highest ratings for that
evening across the whole of France

I will try to get some copies made and I will send one to you. We use
the international PAL system for video and not the American NTSC
system does your VCR play PAL? (Most good Japanese VCRs will play
both)

The reason that I make such a point of this is that you and Ted are
both featured. Next time you visit Paris, expect to be mobbed in the
street. (That is, if you wear your rubber outfits.)"

Missed this one in the madness of December but Goddess Ball legend and Taste of Latex editrix Lily Burana has a great writeup in the SF Chronicle. Still up at

We last saw Lily at the ED WOOD party last Fall as she was beginning her book tour. Glad to hear its going so well.

Congrats to Motherlovers Poison Eve, Flloyd, and of course super-choreographer Herr Klunch (Stacy Dawson) for the great writeup of Best Western in this week's Village Voice. Cute pc of Evie too!

Some one must have dropped out.

of the Click + Drag Freaks For Freedom benefit for RAWA in the L.A. Times. I saw this on the Afgan Women site at

http://afghanwomensmission.org/news/latimes1219.php

Imagine the odds,that the reporter was there on the very day that their check came in. I would love to see the faces on the Afghan women when Glamour Goblin's picture invite arrived!

So proud of Rob and Kitty for this great night which turned out to be the last Click (at FUN, anyway!)

Lead picture of the Bizbash.com report on our NYPL event - Magic of Movie Musicals - is Motherboards Mod Randella - as Debbie Reynolds, with Eli, in Singin In The Rain.

She wears those bright solids so well!

Forgive me if I don't get this exactly right, as I left the magazine somewhere, so I am paraphrasing from memory.

My former neighbors and Sherry Vine's former NYC roommates were in bold type in the Intelligencer section of New York Magazine last week. Erik Jackson and Joshua Rosenzwieg have apparently charmed Stephen King with their script for Carrie, and apparently he is letting them put together a Theatre Couture production of Carrie which will probably be far more successful and entertaining than the Broadway bomb from years ago (which I believe hit records for stinkiest and costliest production). Also in bold face type was "Patricia Field designer David Dalrymple" who will be doing the costumes. Good for them...

Will Sherry get to maim the prom-goers or scream about the shame of dirty pillows?

Recently interviewed for " Featured Artist of the month" at http://in-nyc.com

The interveiw is Here

They snipped and clipped, but the majority of it survived ... to include this little snippet :

"Mother was the most aptly named club I have ever visited. The first time I went to Mother was to see Voltaire many, many moons ago, during the run of "Click and Drag." When you don't grow up in NYC, and you hear the stories, read the books, and dream the dreams of glamorous nightclubs in the big city where anything goes, you wonder if any such places truly exist. Mother was the defining location for the era, and to this day is still the de facto alternative club that all are compared against. This does not mean it was some urban utopia - far from it. Like any club it had good days, drama days, bad hair days -- and every one of them was perfect. You truly rubbed elbows with legends. I never truly felt I was a DJ in NYC until the night Johnny Dynell walked up to me in the DJ booth at Mother and said "You're alright." Truly, the staff and management of Mother gave me the support and critique that I needed as a green DJ, and I will always remember that. "
