We spent Christmas Day in upstate New York. The day was beyond splendid and we graciously and gratefully thank those who know. “Just Say Know”, y’know?

And Christmas Day and night time was a visual feast of Yuletide USA. Snow and lights and sights like Santa’s pickup truck. And his helicopter. Tacky? Magnificent? Both. It made us smile and feel even warmer. 

Father Christmas Meets Andy Warhol. Or something

Jesus dragging his cross behind him staggering down the steps to the subway train makes Anna Wintour (left) realise that she isn’t the only one facing cut-backs, while she simultaneously notes the shade of His bloodstains. “Very next season” she indexes to herself.

Halloween in New York! BPF got on the L Train at 1st Ave and went one stop to Bedford Ave and then back again.

Here’s the evidence: Halloween in New York

Bob Gruen celebrated his birthday with BPF DJing and Bebe Buell performing songs from her new album ‘Sugar’ to an audience that included Ronnie Spector, Danny Fields and Lee Black Childers. The party for the celebrated rock’n'roll photographer was held at the New York home of Georgio Gomelsky, the more-than-fascinating original manager of both The Rolling Stones and The Yardbirds.

Bebe dedicated the song ‘Untouchable’ to its writer Johnny Thunders in a most moving performance that had many at the party – those who would’ve known Johnny, bless him – with tears in their eyes and memories in their hearts. Bebe, you’re a New York doll too.

“You meet Johnny in 1972 in the after midnight of a dentist’s surgery in Harlem…”
BP Fallon managed Johnny Thunders

Iggy Pop flew in from Miami to promote the excellent book ‘The Stooges: The Authorized And Illustrated Story’ by Robert Matheu.

In fine form, The Big Ig held forth at Barnes & Noble in Tribecca on every subject from the blues to drugs to guitarist James Williamson rejoining The Stooges following the sad death of original Stooges axeman Ron Asheton. Williams was lead twanger on the ‘Raw Power’ and ‘Metallic KO’ albums where Ron played bass and his brother Scott played drums.

“We’ve unfinished business” an excited Iggy announced, revealing that Pop/Williamson songs like ‘Cock In My Pocket’, ‘Tight Pants’ and ‘I Got A Right’ – all floating around on various semi-official bootlegs – will finally be recorded properly. 

“We’ve waited long enough” Iggy remarked to loud applause…

Beth Ditto shook a tailfeather at Terminal 5. Soul sister with soulful voice…
