The Corner Of Broadway And Porn

I’ve returned from my New York business trip and I had a terrific time. But now, I’m ready to get back to watching and writing about hot, sloppy, nasty porn.

Needless to say, while in The Big Apple I made it to a couple of the Eighth Avenue porno stores, and bought five new straight DVDs I’ll be reporting on soon (Although I’ll try and watch a few of my current gay adult movies, just to mix things up.)

The New York porn shops are interesting places. DVDs and tapes are very cheap, and the peep show preview booths are intensely hot. I particularly enjoyed the buddy booths. If you’re unfamiliar with the buddy booth concept, think of a regular video booth, except you can push a button, and if the guy in the booth next to you also hits the button in his booth, a window opens up between you so you can watch each other jack-off to the movies on the screen -- or to each other. And did I mention the window between you gaps slightly at the bottom? Just enough to – Yes! – slip your cock through. Now I’m not saying I sucked any cock there, or that I got my cock sucked – I’m not saying that – I just saying it’s possible to suck cock through the window. That’s all I’m saying.

Some of you wrote and asked me to tell about my non-porn NYC adventures. Okay. I saw three shows on Broadway; the Sweeney Todd revival starring Patti LuPone (Odd production, completely re-imagined, the ten actors play their own instruments, and the staging is Brechtian, symbolic, anachronistic, and thoroughly exhilarating), the Pulitzer Prize winning Doubt with the new replacement cast featuring Dame Eileen Atkins (Not as thrilling as I thought it was going to be), and the gut-wrenchingly hilarious Dirty Rotten Scoundrels starring Jonathan Pryce (Really funny), Norbert Leo Butz (He won the Tony for this role for a reason – it’s the funniest performance I’ve ever seen on any stage), and Joanna Gleason (Always luminous.) I also made it to both Metropolitans – the Museum and the Opera. At Lincoln Center I caught Saint-Saens’ Samson et Dalila. It was something of a tepid production, but Olga Borodina’s Dalila is breathtaking and stunning. Her performance alone is worth the price of admission.

Okay, enough of all this. Now I’m heading to the DVD player with a cum-rag and my pants open. I’ll be back telling you about one of my new stroke flicks very, very soon.

Comments:
Glad to have you back, J. (I am leaving for NYC in 3 weeks as well.)
 
I hope you have a as good a time as I did in the Big Apple. If you get a chance, try and catch "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels" on Broadway. I haven't laughed that hard in a long time, and of all the shows I saw, I would say that's at the top of the list. And if you make it to the porn shops on Eighth Avenue, please write in and tell us all about it. Safe Trip!
 
why, i didnt know you wuz highbrow!

i'm goin to see the GREY GARDENS musical on sunday!
 
I really wanted to see Gray Gardens but couldn't get in. Please report back with all the details!
 
ive just come from GREY GARDENS & its ONE OF THE MOST AMAZING THINGS IVE EVER SEEN!!!!
beat someone up & steal their ticket if you have to, BUT YOU HAVE GOT TO SEE IT!!!!
Christine Ebersole should get EVERY AWARD THERE EVER IS OR WAS, from AKC KENNEL CLUB BEST IN SHOW to THE NOBEL PEACE PRIZE, she is SO FANTASTIC!!!!! She doesnt just play The Edies, or quote The Edies...she is ***LIVING*** THE EDIES!!!!

i was in tears & rapture from the very first line of dialogue til the number AROUND THE WORLD, when i totally dissolved into a blubbering weeping bawling mess!!!! I LOVED IT!!! & theres laughter thru the tears, uncrontollable joy during the song REVELOUTIONARY COSTUME FOR THE DAY, i couldnt suppress a WOOHOO!!! because it WAS JUST TOO GREAT!!!!

& it was really hard *NOT* to jump on stage & try to comfort The Edies...i mean, HERE THEY ARE, happening, existing, living RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU, & theres the feeling that i *could* do something to help them, I MUST do something to help them!!!!

I truly want every person on this planet to see this play!!!!!!!
but especially people who are already grey gardens fans because YOU! WILL! FEEL! THE! LOVE!!!!!!!!
 
Wow, n69n, tell us what you really think.

It is so terrific to hear a rave about a show in this day and age. I had a feeling this musical was going to be amazing, but to hear your endorsement of it only confirms what I guessed. I hope to see the show some time (I won't be back in NY any time soon, so it may have to be a regional theatre production -- I'm guessing there won't be a national tour.)

Please let us know what else you see, n69n. I know we'd all like to hear your reviews. And thanks for posting about Gray Gardens. You've made us all want to run out and see it.
