Shanty Watch

Remember the burning-man type structure that mystically appeared in 10 Jay’s backyard? A few days ago it disappeared without warning. Where did it go?

To 23rd St at the FDR.

Not pictured in this photo: a circle of tires about 50 feet from this wooden structure. I think that is where The Man will burn.

Five months in the making, the Tusk documentary has arrived

May 15th, 2008 · by Holly · 1 Comment

That’s right. A full on bootleg DVD of the legendary and rare “Making of Tusk” documentary—entitled simply, elegantly, “Fleetwood Mac”— has finally arrived. After searching through every independent video store in NY, the Bobst library, the internet, I was finally able to get it off some ghetto auction site called Epier.

Seriously. Screening next week. I watched the first 10 seconds to make sure it worked and I was already spellbound.
