You Are My Sweet Baby: Love Song For Jeffrey Dahmer

Dudley Saunders

Dudley Saunders latest is disturbing, haunting & beautiful....

Since nobody extrapolates on their own creations better than Dudley here is what he has to say about it:

Here is the seventh lyric video from IN THESE BOXES (and also the album THE EMERGENCY LANE).  

The unusual thing is that I removed the song title for IN THESE BOXES, which made it more of a straightforward S&M love song (depending on how straightforward you feel an S&M love song can be). So it was an interesting bit of artistic re-purposing.  

Here's the text from the performance, which nods lightly toward Dahmer without tipping into serial murder, keeping it in the sphere of perverse romance:
 

"This memory was murdered.  This life was a secret.  It did not require drugs to be released.  He was transformed, as a hero should be in a proper story.  He found happiness.  The happiness was so upsetting that much care was taken to blot out any memory of it.   To ravel the story so it’s pattern could not be seen.  But his happiness had been here, in that Detroit basement that was soundproof."

Prepare yourself and watch the video after the jump.

Antebellum Art Opening

This Must Be It: Antebellum Gallery in Hollywood

Last night I attended the opening of the exhibit of 21st Century Gay Man at the Antebellum gallery in the heart of Hollywood, CA in support of my artist friend Kent who had pieces in the exhibit.

It was a good time, not only was there plenty of art to view, there was also DJ Renato Teroy spinning in the gallery window, a performance by a punk band called Thinpins and eye candy in the form of bartender Jayk Knight in a barely there booty bearing underwear.

It's photo time, enjoy!

My Kid Brother's Band

Fifty Years of THE BEATLES: Louise Harrison Lifts Veil

on Her Life With her Beatles Brother

"…Harrison has an unusual angle for her Beatlemaniac memoirs:
she was living in America when her brother hit it big…" - Rolling Stone
 

She loves you yeah, yeah, yeah...!!!! By the summer of 1965,Beatlemania had gripped the world, with fandom reaching the highest pinnacles of society. The Beatles had played for presidents, heads of state, and accepted a command performance from Queen Elizabeth II. So great was the Fab Four’s rising fame that, in June of 1965, they were named Members of the British Empire--a high honor for four kids from Liverpool. Now, on the cusp of the 50th Anniversary of their MBE induction, one person close to them is looking back at Beatlemania. For Louise Harrison, Beatles success meant something different entirely. Living in the United States, Louise had been a vanguard of the Beatles, and she worked hard to help make the band as big a success in America as they had been across the pond--her efforts often and humorously met with rejection. But behind the fame and away from the lights, Louise and her mother and father provided something to the other three Beatles that only the Harrisons could: a family. Now, for the first time, Louise has lifted the veil on life with the Beatles in a heart-felt, powerful memoir My Kid Brother’s Band: a.k.a. The Beatles!  Recounting the rise from Liverpool, sweeping British and European popularity, and that fateful first broadcast on The Ed Sullivan Show. Louise takes readers on a journey through the years, touching on emotional, spiritual, and professional landmarks along the way. With so many Beatles “50th anniversaries” on the calendar this year, Beatles fans everywhere won’t want to miss this intimate portrait of life inside one Beatles family. ABOUT LOUISE HARRISON Louise Harrison was born in Liverpool, England, the first child and only daughter of Harold and Louise Harrison. Her youngest brother, George, was also the youngest of the four Liverpool lads know as The Beatles. During 1964 and 1965 Louis, living in Illinois, found herself writing and broadcasting daily Beatles reports nationwide, due to public demand for news of The Beatles. Her distinctive voice with its British accent is immediately recognized by Beatles People all over the world.

Frock Off! Dragstrip 66

There's a "Frokumentary" brewing about the legendary club Dragstrip 66. Why they passed up a chance to call it Dragstrip 69 is beyond my comprehension.

Wanna party? There's a fundraiser tomorrow night at Akbar in Silverlake, CA to kick it all off and, to celebrate the crowdfunding page. As you know crowdfunding is all the rage these days.

So rather than my prattling on, hit the links below.

Happy Throwback Thursday, indeed!

Kim Richards Out

Get Well Kim

Kim Richards is no longer a regular on the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. 

She may make a cameo or two, but...while I could be snide about this I choose not to. Leave that to people who have no lives.

This actually makes me sad. I grew up with Kim, she was in one of my favorite films of all time Escape to Witch Mountain.

Let's not berate her for her transgressions. How about sending out some love in hope she gets her life back together.
