89 year old Drag King Storme Delarverie threatened with eviction

In an email that I received yesterday from Debbie and Ed Hamilton of Living With Legends Hotel Chelsea Blog they ask that I assist in getting the word out regarding Chelsea Hotel's minority shareholder David Elder and Manager Andrew Tilley underhanded attempts to evict 89 year old Drag King Storme Delarverie.

In addition to links that you'll find in the Monday, 5 January 2009 Living With Legend's Hotel Chelsea Blog posting regarding Storme's history here are others at Google search.

The above promo photo is from Storme: The Lady of the Jewel Box, a WOMEN MAKE MOVIES documentary film by Michelle Parkerson.

While you can keep informed of current happenings at the Chelsea Hotel by visting the Living With Legends Hotel Chelsea Blog Ed Hamilton's book Legends of the Chelsea Hotel: Living with Artists and Outlaws in New York's Rebel Mecca will provide insight into its history.

My "Put Your Hands Up / Obama" podcast

Having spent many months trying to find the best software for creating mp3's with crossfading functionality I am happy to say that I came across Virtual DJ.

And, as a result, spent the past two days creating my first mp3 mix. Sampling speeches of Barack Obama and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. with some of my favorite trance and house remixes, PUT YOUR HANDS UP / OBAMA, a tribute to Dr. King as well as in celebration of the Obama and Biden 20 January 2009 inauguration, will serve as background music for my "World to Obama ..." Message Board - Lincoln Memorial / WDC - 7 November 2008 photo montage project.

Which, if all goes well, should be realeased in time for Martin Luther King Day and not later than 20 January 2009.

Though, just launched, here is my Elvert Barnes Mixology podcast.
