this from an unnamed source:
I was just there and saw a stage set up by the monument. It’s a Save CBGB rally of some sort. One of the stage hands told me that B-52’s, Blondie, Patti, and Public Enemy are scheduled to appear. It’s on from 3:00-7:00 - TODAY! Go! Now!

SHIT HAMMERED- The Weekly Party TONIGHT Tuesday AUGUST 30th Upstairs at HAPPY ENDING 302 BROOME ST. (bet. Forsyth and Eldridge)
(literally a pool of blood at zane’s going away party saturday night.)
and that’s not just because i got listed in the “best blogs” section. the highlight i must say, is the “why your blog is shitty” section. it’s like when people talk to you on im or leave comments that make you goddam certain that they have reverted like 11 years to ‘tweenhood and are just steps away from emoticoning you. people lose jobs over that shit my friends! seriously! “lol” and “ur” are not words! “np” does not suffice to suggest that it’s no problem! i recommended a friend for a job at a certain nyc mag once. the friend who was otherwise competent didn’t get the job because my mag friend was like “the dude spoke mostly in emoticons. it just wasn’t gonna work out.” anyway. seenster is your friendster. go read a seriously pro-awesome blog. oh and zipco, some abbreviations are funny and/or snarky and some make you sound like you’re 14. they’re completely different, jerk.
highlight of my weekend: anne writing zane in blood on her boobs.
Wild and wonderful weekend. Friday critical massacre. 49 ARRESTS. jeez. anyway, i only stayed for the beginning, met up with college bff katharine, dave (one) and related friends & lovers for dinner at the pink pony, ducked out and rode over to the nacho house and then rode en masse to john’s going away rock & roof extravaganza. saturday was zane’s super duper huge-ginormo going away rooftop party with matt & kim, poorboy johnson & the goddamn rattlesnake, meneguar!!!, mattress wrestling, free beer and sparks and a pool of fake blood. i got so drunk that i didn’t make it to what sounds like an absolutely lovely show at officeops with freaking japanther. sad. tears. sorry i missed it. so then on sunday i skipped the todd p marathon show and rode my bike to coney island because i felt like it. caught the last day of espo’s dreamland artist clubhouse and had a nice ride home. then i melted into the couch in front of the tv. ahhh the weekend. back to work.
saw this for the first time yesterday. such a welcome surprise after riding 25 miles.
Outside of the Dreamland Artist Clubhouse. Yesterday was apparently the last day.
espo!
fond memories. glad we’re all besties again.
inside of the clubhouse. espo’s signs.
yesterday was officially the last day of espo’s dreamland artist clubhouse. here’s the inside.
i rode down to coney yesterday. nailed that ocean parkway bikeway stretch in like 20 minutes. when i got there it was lovely and not very crowded. the sun was coming out fromt he nice cooling drizzle. it was good and great.
awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww. this is his memorial pin for his hamster who just passed away.
