Tom Rubnitz fest Thursday night in Queens!

July 12, 1992

Randomly found this on the NYT archive machine thingie. Bill Cunningham pictures weren’t meant to last I guess? Ephemera. Good drag name. Faded and wrinkled, very fragile, so cheap and most people just trashed her the next day. Ephemera. I used to see her at Kinko’s a lot.

Tickets are available now for Joey Arias along with Brandon Seabrook, Tony Mason and Eliot Douglass at Joe’s Pub August 10th, 11th, 12th, and 13th. I saw Joey and friends recently and it seemed like the first time for me. Joey is pure magnetic entertainment and moves megawatts of energies around the room. The show is three New York City artists at their best. Do yourself a favor and get some tickets in advance. You will be amused, entertained and touched by the work of these seasoned greats. Be ready for an energy zap. I caught a few.

Selections Under The Musical Direction of Mr. Paolo DiNola

We gotta get to Rome ASAP, people, capiche? – I’m leaving now – Ciao tutto! Sorry, I’m already gone.

Are you still here? … why?

No, no, bambina. I left. OK? I have other things to do today besides this blog. I have other projects, other gigs…other mixes to find.

I’m working. I’m always working. I’m working right now.

Ciao Paolo!!! Non dimenticare mai ti amo!

Pal Joey NYC Darlings

I am five years late with this one, BUT it’s the genius of Pal Joey that keeps this mix relevant and MASTERFUL. Learn this!

Yacht or not, this music is for CRUISING.

And yes, this includes the seminal track, PARTY TIME so shut up and keep dancing. We are not here to judge, but if we were then we would all agree that this mix by the master Pal Joey is OVAAAAAAAHHHHHH!

Icon, Symbol, EYEcon

The following is a conversation starter.

Leggy – icon of fashion dolls

A Painted Poodle – symbol of Poodleology (ask a poodleologist and find out)

and Pat Dry – Eyecon who was known for her eyes.

La Lupe. Okay?

I’m loving the simple T.

It’s Not Just Me It’s Everybody – Weyes Blood

She’d Like To Runaway But She Can’t Go

A Free Mini Masterclass with Miss Geraldine Page

(feedback) ….Welcome students and professionals. Our program for the Mini Masterclass in acting is about to begin. This is the Acting Mini Masterclass…so if you are not here to study acting, you are in the wrong place! Our guest instructor today is Miss Geraldine Page Torn.

👏👏👏👏👏

Yes! let’s hear it for her. Ladies and gentlemen, Gerry will be doing an acting demo for us then we’ll have a three minute break after which she will present us with another example of what she does so well, and that is of course, acting correctly. OK , so there will be no questions or discussion after the class, before the class, during the class or during the break. Please do not attempt to speak to Miss Page Torn at any time during our program. You got that? It’s not gonna happen.

Now, Miss P. Torn has given her very intense and hyper-detailed Mini Masterclass an appropriate title for us – she’s keeping it simple and to the point, learn from her, kids. So ,on behalf of the Billy Beyond Teach It Charitable Association and the Decoupage Institute of Technology at Queens College, I am very proud to give you now “Acting – This is how to do it.” with Miss Geraldine Page Torn. Hold your applause please. Quiet. Quiet please.

(So if I could just get each of you to click on that white arrow you see on the screen below, our masterclass will begin.)

The names of any other actors who appear in any scenes with Miss Page Torn are irrelevant and therefore have intentionally not been noted here.

3 MINUTE BREAK starts now. Please, as a reminder, there’s no smoking in the bathrooms and this also means vapes and JUULs. Okay? Seriously…

Ok…OK…Can we settle down please? Thank you. We are continuing with the second half of our class now and once again I’m going to need each of you to click right on that white arrow that you see in the center of the screen, right below here. OK? Amy? are you listening or are you looking for the perfect nut? I see you have a nice looking mix in that bag and I’m sure they are both delicious and nutritious but there is no eating anywhere in this building and that does include snacking. Ok? Thank you. Now…evidently some of you had some problems with the arrow clicking in the first half of our Masterclass…I’m sorry about that, uh…I’ve been told to tell you that you should click on the white arrow but only once. Just one click on that arrow and that’s it. OK? One click only. If you click on it twice, then it stops and Geraldine will be frozen in time forever….so…I’m sure none of us want that for such a generous and kind lady. OK? Once again, one click. So, here we go, now you can click that arrow and….oh….one more thing. Please be aware that the class will be ending immediately after this scene ends, so please, if you could just exit quickly out the main doors and not congregate in here when Miss Page has finished her demonstration for us..OK? We have another Masterclass coming in here very soon and we would like to give the cleaning crew enough time to wipe things down and whatever else it is they do….I don’t now…maybe vacuum I guess? … ANYWAY, let’s all settle down and enjoy the master talent of out Masterclass Instructor on the subject of “acting and how to do it correctly,” Miss Geraldine “Gerry” Page Torn.

….go ahead and click it! ( morons…)

Normally the names of any other actors who appear in any scene with Miss Page Torn are irrelevant and therefore are never noted, but there exists one exception, that being an appearance of any kind by the great Ruth Gordon. Miss Gordon appears here in a scene from “Whatever Happened To Aunt Alice.”

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

👏👏👏 Goodnight everyone. 👏👏👏 Be safe.

Goodnight. 👏👏👏 Just right out that door, same way you came in…yep.

Ok. You bet.

bye now.
