I hope you all enjoy my interview with
DEL STRANGEFISH Guitarist for PETER AND THE TEST TUBE BABIES.. I first became aware of them when I heard their wonderful song, "THE QUEEN GIVES GOOD BLOWJOBS," that shocked the World ... I became a instant fan...Then when FILTH did their version of  "BANNED FROM THE PUBS" in the 90's which I loved.. I started to listen to PETER AND THE TEST TUBE BABIES and became a fan again.... Kind of like doing The TIME WARP Again, Again and Again... FILTH did a KICK ASS version of it ... JESSE MICHAELS, former lead singer of OPERATION IVY, will be performing at THE BOTTOM OF THE HILL  in December... JESSE is such a talent... A great Fuckin' Voice and a Fantastic Lyricist. Every time we see each other he always reminds me of the first time we ever met at "THE DAY ON THE DIRT, " at Aquatic Park in Berkeley,CA.. Hey. Check out the Flier's Archives in the Scrapbook link at THE BOTTOM OF THE HILL'S Website... RAMONA DOWNEY has had the Poster that MIKE MCLEOD designed for the DR. KNOW, WHITE TRASH DEBUTANTES, LEWD and GIRLS WITH GUNS placed there... Good work RED...THE SHAPES (the only band playing with all their original members) have been invited to play THE REBELLION FESTIVAL in December with THE DAMNED, PENETRATION, UK SUBS and more... GARETH HOLDER who is an original member of THE SHAPES and lives in San Francisco has offered to cover the event for PUNK GLOBE.. Kudos's out to PIERRE from Montreal and our favorite COWBOY the one and only RANDY JONES for sporting their WHITE TRASH DEBUTANTES T-Shirts...... RANDY has  four pages in the 35th Anniversary of PLAYGIRL that is on stands now..This issue will be the FINAL printed issue of the Magazine... RANDY JONES also has a new film out called "AGAINST THE WIND" and on December 28th his Book "MACHO MAN" will be released on Greenwood/Praeger Press.....A must buy for us all!!!!!  JAYNE COUNTY is elated about the OBAMA win, but like the rest of the country upset with PROPOSITION HATE passing.. She is so happy I made contact with TIM, lead singer of SHAM 69..They are long time pals... This months PUNK OF THE MONTH --  PAULEY PERRETTE,  along with MICHAEL BOSMAN, ANGELA GARBER and MEGAN DODSON  have  been to most all the demonstrations in the Hollywood area lending their support to overturning Proposition 8....Please take the time to read and sign the following petition to overturn Proposition 8  and urge others to sign it........

 I am sure that when BEBE BUELL comes West she will be throwing her support to the cause. I know she is doing her part on the East Coast......BEBE and her husband JIM WALLERSTEIN have been very busy with getting her new CD recorded and mixed.....ROSIE O'DONNELL is back on NBC with a Variety Show and she will have ALEC BALDWIN and KATHY GRIFFIN as guests.... She recently dissed "THE VIEW" and that got BARBARA WALTERS upset, but Walters, when speaking about the incident, referred to ROSIE as a former Colleague. I love 30 ROCK... TINA FEY is a true genius...I hear that she has laid her impressions of Sarah Palin to rest. Although a Porn Star has taken up where TINA stopped, doing a a Movie called "NAILIN' PALIN"..... I recently spoke with TRACEY McGILLIVARY and she told me about all her many health issues after being in the Mid East fighting at Desert Storm...She has had numerous bouts with cancer and various other ailments...I feel so much compassion for her and all the other Soldiers...We really need to help pay respect to our Vets who have fought for our Country... So many VETS on the Streets in Wheelchairs asking for spare change... It is so very sad...TRACEY is  very happy with OBAMA winning and has no kind words for Bush...TRACEY  YOU ARE A HERO for us ALL !! There was a meeting at The Board Of Supervisors Office in San Francisco where people like KATHY PECK, DENNIS from SLIM'S, RUBY RAY, DAVID DENNY, IAN WEBSTER, RANDY SEANOR, CARL MACKI,  DENISE DEMISE and various others spoke and were present ONCE again on behalf of the late DIRK DIRKSEN. In regards to re-naming Rowland Street in North Beach by the former MABUHAY GARDENS at 443 Broadway to DIRK DIRKSEN PLACE...Again their was some opposition from a couple people who simply have no life....But luckily TOM AMMIANO and the other Board Members saw how trivial their complaints were and officially passed the motion......So now, ALL we need is to raise the much needed funds for the installation and the Plaque... History again has been made!!!!! AMY WINEHOUSE is now sporting a short curly hairdo and some say that she resembles a young BOB DYLAN.....ZACH MOREHOUSE doing alot of interviews about his Video work with the CHARM CITY ROLLERGIRLS in Baltimore.....Much Sadness I recently heard from TONI ROYCE aka TONI DMR TWIN about the passing of former FUCKETTE - VIRGINIA...The last time I saw her was at The Uptown with EVE (LADY TRASH) and we hardly recognized her she had lost all this weight and had long hair and was wearing a mini skirt and hose...She mentioned she had not spoken with LESLEY and VICTORIA for quite some time. It seems she was recently found beaten in an alleyway.. She had a problem with drugs and was homeless....What a very sad ending......Again Condolences to all who knew her....KENNY "ALL SMILES"  KIMMEL is booking a Club in Woodland, CA on Saturdays nights... One of the last times I remember seeing KENNY in NYC when we were both East visiting NICK MARDEN, RACHEL ROYCE, JIM LUCIO, BEBE BUELL, LIV TYLER, ARIANA MARDEN, CHRISTINE, AMY CARLSON, CHANTAL LONERGAN, SUSAN ANTON, MICHAEL MUSTO, RANDY JONES, SUSIE, GEZA, SUICIDE KING, JOY BEHAR, FOUR WAY....A bunch of us went to hang at KENNY'S room at THE ST. MARKS HOTEL after a show..I went to the opening of the CASABLANCA THEATER that had an event for the Latin Community...It was lots of fun and I met so many Stars..It was a surprise and delight to see RON WHITAKER and his Posse there...RON told me he was throwing a Birthday Party for CHERIE CURRIE who he also plays drums for...I would like to thank ROSIE PEARSON of CASABLANCA PRODUCTIONS INTERNATIONAL for the invite and I will be attending the opening of "MEXICAN GANGSTER" starring DAMIAN CHAPPA whom I met at the party..The Premiere will happen at THE MILLION DOLLAR THEATER in downtown LA.. It will be lots of fun I am sure...I am so sorry that I missed PYLON when they played THE ECHO in LA..I marked the wrong date on my Calendar... It would have been so great to see my Birthday Sister Lead Singer VANESSA HAY who invited me to the show...I am so so sorry VANESSA...PYLON also played in SF at THE INDEPENDENT...ONE LIFE TO LIVE has to be the best written ABC Soap.. I love the Amnesia storyline with MARTY, BO, TALIA, NORA, ANTONIO, JOHN, COLE and TODD, which merges into the Baby Switch story line with MARCIE, MICHAEL, MARKKO, STARR, LANGSTON, ADDIE, BLAIR and DORIAN. Both of these sagas also involve the Multiple Personality Disorder with TESS, BESS, JESSICA,VIKKI, NIKKI SMITH, JEAN RANDOLPH, TINA, NATALIE, REX, GIGI, ROXIE, CLINT, CHARLIE and JARED... And we do have only ONE LIFE TO LIVE!!  Below is some NIKKI/VIKKI ACTION.....


  I just adore WENDY KAUFMAN (THE SNAPPLE LADY and CELEBRITY FIT CLUB) I asked her if she liked Punk Rock and she began to sing  "WENDY is a Punk Rocker " aka "SHEENA IS A PUNK ROCKER." She used to go see THE RAMONES and BLONDIE  at CBGB'S all the time...... You Go WENDY... Speaking of which WENDY THIRTEEN is running for office in Vancouver..What an asset she would be for the City...KARLA MCLEOD is now has a permanent Visa for Canada..It is time to celebrate and if you wanna help her celebrate her Husband MIKE will be playing guitar with WHITE TRASH DEBUTANTES at THE RED HAT BAR on 11-28 in Concord CA; and then at THE BOTTOM OF THE HILL in SF, CA on 11-29...Come buy KARLA a brew to help her celebrate....RON TURNER will be throwing his annual  XMAS Burrito party at LAST GASP this month...I am sorry to see CODY LINLEY leaving "DANCING WITH THE STARS" he had been doing so great as a Dancer. Up until JULIEANNE HOUGH had to have surgery for Appendicitis......HUGH JACKMAN is people's SEXIEST MAN  this year.. I recently saw him on TMZ and must admit he has a great sense of humor and does look good.....

LIL GUITAR ARMY featuring the Wild and Sexy GERRY-JENN WILSON recently played THE PENTHOUSE in Vancouver, Canada....AUDREY FAINE and her family have moved south to LA where she now has a job at CBS..She has already met and befriended  GAYE ANN BRUNO and is working on a music project for CBS that will include PAULEY PERRETTE..."NCIS" is kicking ass for CBS on Tuesdays in the Nielsen Ratings..It is like a fine wine that keeps getting better with age. It has a huge loyal audience that now does better than "DANCING WITH THE STARS"
on Tuesdays ... In fact it is a Top 10 hit for the Network.. Just  ask NANCY JACKSON, MIKAEL RICHARDS, BEBE BUELL, SHARLA CARTNER and MS.TRACEY McGILLIVARY and her Mom JOLENE why they all love the show.....

THE JIM ROWDY SHOW has a hottie playing with them -- his name is WOLF GENTRY...DENNIS WHITE now has his online store set up........ DENNIS is still dancing  with delight because we soon will have soon have PRESIDENT OBAMA in office..He drove several  people to the polls so they could Vote.... Not to mention that a nice story came out about UPCHUCK  in the November ADVOCATE......I have a new found respect for ROSEANNE BARR I felt at one point she was becoming somewhat conservative but am so happy to report that the ROSEANNE we all loved is BACK slamming people left and right for voting in favor of Proposition 8...Her Website "ROSEANNE''S WORLD HOME OF THE DOMESTIC GODDESS" rules.... Hats Off to our own SHARLA CARTNER for all of her hard work helping with PUNK GLOBE despite trouble with the Internet... She rules!!  MELISSA LATFKAS recently went to see ROBYN HITCHCOCK at GREAT AMERICAN MUSIC HALL and had a fucking blast....CATHY RICHARDSON who starred as JANIS JOPLIN in the Broadway Play "LOVE JANIS" and who is now the current lead singer of the JEFFERSON STARSHIP is also very adamant in her fight against Proposition 8. She married her Wife RACHEL ROSE REGAN just days before the election and they both are outraged by the proposition being passed..They met when CATHY was working on the play about JANIS.....STACEY TUTTLE busy with a new project to help raise funds for CAMPAIGN FOR CARE!!! Hopefully it will happen in the next few months...Look on MY SPACE for updates....
