These pics are from a performance I did on August 14th, a political freakshow called Neo(con)ey Island, which was held on a blocked off street in Billyburg, not Coney Island. It was a lot of fun. Mark Argo took the pictures of my performance and the audience. Thanks dude! Also present were Ann Poochareon and Mikey Sklar. The performance setup was kind of weird though. There wasn’t really much of a stage—it was more of a fashion runway. It made it tough for the audience to coalesce as they were spread along the length of the runway. My samples were much louder than my voice. I determined that in the future I would need to aquire a wireless clip on microphone. Still, my schtick was pretty funny. I wrote up some new material especially for the event.

An expressive face is a gift, no?

The crowd seemed to have never seen anything quite like the PowerSuit as worn by yours truly.

This guy was impressive. He pretended to hang himself with a noose tied to an American flag while ranting poetically about how awful Bush was. The higher he raised the flag, the more it choked him. Great costume. Great concept. Great writing. Great delivery. Did I mention that this guy was great?

These babes were awesome. I was honored to appear at the same event as the Missile Dick Chicks. They sing, they dance, and they strap huge silver missile phalluses to their midsections. Great stuff.
