October 18, 1994: At my open stage I had a clash with the new guy


Thirty years ago today

            On Tuesday morning I posed in the sculpture studio of Central Technical School. Then I had a rehearsal for Christian and the Lions’ upcoming gig at the El Mocambo with Tom Smarda, Steve Lowe and Yehudah Cullman. It mostly consisted of us teaching my song “Angeline” to Yehudah. Then I worked at Danforth Technical School until 21:30 and so I was late again to host my Orgasmic Alphabet Orgy writers open stage in the Art Bar of the Gladstone Hotel. When I got there I found that we were missing chairs and tables. My co-host Mary Milne took offense when I said, “Everything falls apart when I’m not here”. There was a full moon and the energy was very tense. I had a clash with a new guy named Dan Goorevitch over the door being open or not. After everybody left, Adina and I stayed in the Art Bar and talked.
