I know a lot of people on The Motherboards seeing these pictures were never at "Jackie 60" and may not understand.
"Jackie 60" was a party from 1990 - 2000. Every Tuesday night there was a different theme. Some themes were twisted and complicated, and some were just stupid and fun, like "Little Rascals". Patrons were encouraged (OK, forced by Kitty Boots) to dress for the themes and participate. These pictures are not from a "play". This was just some of the madness from the night. We called this "Method Go Go". (The Empress coined the phrase). We would suppply the stage and the stage set, props, etc. and then we would let it happen. Some people were paid to "go go". They would get into character and be that person all night (and sometimes WELL into the next day!) But "customers" could also be "drafted" if their look was right and we thought they would add a little something to the story. Many stars were born on the infamous Jackie 60 stage and many lives were ruined. Good times.
Jackie 60 remembers the Hal Roach Studios in this truly 'Jackie 60 " version of the "Little Racal's" FEATURING: Poison Eve as Spanky Princess Zoria as Darla Paul Alexander as Buckwheat Lyle Derek as Wheezer Michael Angelo as Alfalfa Hattie Hathaway as Miss Crabtree With a very Special appearance by Johnny Dynel as Butch In "LETS PUT ON A SHOW" from the last year of the legendary NY night club JACKIE 60's famous performance "GO GO" . Jackie 60 was Located at 875 Washington Street, NYC, NY
Wait until you see the movie! These are all just little bits of the movie that sneak out.
And in answer to the next question... I think it should come out for the 10th anniversary. It already looks like ancient herstory but in another year or two (when they mow down China Town and build a golf course) it will really look unbelievable.
Did you catch any of the comments? Everyone hated it. They thought it was "Gay Performance Art" and "The Devil's work" etc.. Then someone came on and defended it by saying, "Yes, they're a little light in the loafers but not of the devil."
"LIGHT IN THE LOAFERS"?!!!!!!!!!!!! I was howling. I never heard that before. I love it.
Here is something that might cheer you up Daddy, And not one of those darn Loafers to be seen on this night! Lets see what those "right wingers" say about this! (Hint DCI 1999)

Anyone remember HAPI PHACE,....I think he was killed by TV ADDICTION...but not so long ago...in a relative sense...as in 3 or 4 years ago...He and I visited HAL ROACH's grave...the creator of Lil Rascals. It's in the samew Elmira NY graveyard as Mark Twain,...but the more memorable thing was..right off from Twain's grave was this HUGE boulder with a 3 foot steel plaque of some Captain Ugly and his frumpy bespectacled wife. Like they competed,...and IN a WAY, WON...as Twain's grave was ORDINARY. This thing was a freakshow of overdoing it.
If I recall right, Hapi said, " I think I saw a SIZZLER on the way into town."
