Passion for fashion?

I spied these two fashionistas lugging tons of stuff to a fashion show in the rocks. They were dolled up to the nines and had to make about twenty trips back to a European car that was crammed with shit.Glamorous stuff indeed. No wonder fashion types are always having tantrums and storming out of rooms. They work like coal miners...

Bada Bing Bada boom

The guys at new K.X. strip club Bada Bing have got a new dress code plaque. Note the last refusal of entry pertaining to Bikie PARAFANALIA as opposed to PARAPHERNALIA.
Now, the law says if you own a bar you can't let Bikies in. Even if you just suspect them of being involved in a 1% Gang. Oh and no thongs, unless of course you are stripping...

Mc Drunk

When I was young, one of my first after school jobs was at Mc Donald's Kings Cross. Back then it was a crazy Junkie infested hell hole and Mc Donalds was the Junkie food of choice. They should have made that film supersize me about a junkie who eats nothing but Mc Donalds and Heroin. We used to have to keep the sugar, napkins and straws behind the counter to keep the junkies from stealing them. The other night I visited the golden arches and shot this snap of two young lasses chowing down on some burgers and a cheap bottle of Champagne. The stuff hang over dreams are made of...Note how 21st Cent these girls are. They are talking to each other whilst eating, drinking and making a phone call. Multi Tasking.

Kings Cross mini movie.

This is a small film I made about smoking in Kings Cross. Check it out if you have 3 minutes up your sleeve.

Mile High

I'm doing a new play down at the OLD FITZ in Wooloomooloo called Mile High. It's written and directed by Byron Kaye and stars Megan Alston and my good self. It's on for a little while so if you are in the area... Sorry for the self promotion but I promise more posts about strange signs soon.
Cheers

Vale Troy

This is the first part of a two part tribute made by Australian director Richard Lowenstein about his longtime friend and collaborator Troy Davies. Troy was a true kings cross character and died last year after an extremely long battle with HIV/AIDS. These films are no picnic but show an artistic community in the early eighties in full flight. Great footage of Michael Hutchence behind the scenes on Lowenstein's film "Dogs in Space". Looks like an insane but creatively dense period. Sad but worth a look...

Stop in the name of (lost) junkie Love!

This notice posted on Darlinghurst Rd is bizzare but also kinda sad. If you click on the photo you'll be able to read it. Basically it's from a woman who is dumping shit on her former lover. Letting people know he's a Junkie and a thief. Obviously a sordid sad tale. What's strange is that she was inspired to make this sign. fascinating. Sad.

Hook Line and Sinker

When I was a kid I remember hearing the word hooker in an American movie and wondering why Australia's biggest real estate agency was called L.J Hooker after the word for a prostitute.

Now I'm older and know that it was just a co-incidence. Then I saw this SOLD sign. Tell me the photo of the house doesn't look like the kinda place a hooker might turn tricks?

I have now decided that the real estate agency IS actually run by hookers. They obviously sold this place as a favour to a colleague.

As seen in Glebe.
