In Burlesque Heaven

Showbiz sob story: on the night of the book-release celebration for his first published novel, young author Jonny Porkpie is tragically murdered in the Bleecker Street Theater by a mysterious assailant.

Fortunately, Jonny comes back as a ghostly angel, and helps the cast uncover his killer.

That's the premise for Pinchbottom Burlesque's Lurid Pulp show, marking the release of Porkpie's detective pulp, The Corpse Wore Pasties. It's a great read, and the show is delightful.

Fantasy Football

Miss Clams Casino, wearing the colors of Ohio State, does a lot to stir the appreciation of sports fans everywhere.

I guess that should really be "wearing some of the colors of Ohio State." She seems to have left some of them in the locker room.

The way it works tonight at Pinchbottom Burlesque's Lurid Pulp show is this: we're here to celebrate the release of Jonny Porkpie's new burlesque detective novel, The Corpse Wore Pasties. In the book, some of the fictional burlesque dancers have routines which are described as part of the action. Tonight those numbers are brought to life, before an audience.

This one is the signature act of the fictional Cherries Jubilee. Who in no way, we are assured, resembles the nonfictional Clams Casino. Nope nope nope.

Go out for a pass!

Smokin'

Nasty Canasta emerges from stageside in an atmospheric haze of smoke, and eases into a series of classic and lovely noir poses. The air is briefly filled with notes of speakeasy, moxie, and risk.

The occasion is a show celebrating the publication of Jonny Porkpie's new detective novel, The Corpse Wore Pasties (as I post this photo I'm about halfway through the book, and I'm happy to report that it's really good).

In the meta-frame of Pinchbottom Burlesque's Lurid Pulp show tonight, author Porkpie has just been dispatched in a flurry of confusion. Nasty steps in to play his role as host of the proceedings, and she and Jonny's ghost (furry boa halo, pasties) work together to solve the crime and keep the audience guessing.

Austin by Firelight

Last winter I went down to Texas to visit my friend Jen, who has just put out a new record. While I'm there, Spicewood Farms, the stable where Jen keeps her horse, has a holiday party, and we drink and talk and sing and burn things until late.

Shooting by firelight is a tricky business; there's more grain than image to work with. This one is processed heavily, to make it look like the memories.

Puppy Love

My nephew Rohan has been back in Australia these past, what, five weeks or so, and I'm happy to run across pictures of him floating around on the computer. Especially given the nearing Thanksgiving holiday, it's good to play with family images. This season we've got wings in Sydney, in Maine, and somewhere in continental Europe (Germany?), while I hold down the fort in New York.

Rohan was wearing his doggie costume this afternoon - poke around a bit and you'll find him kitted out as a a kangaroo as well - and when I asked if he'd like to pose for some shots, he was eager to oblige. He loves this game, and he does the Happy face and the Wow face and the Angry face on demand. And then trots over to look at the pictures in the back of the camera, to see how he's done.
