Remember that time that the legendary Tom Jones performed not in a massive theatre but inside the 500 person maximum venue Bowery Ballroom? I was there to capture all the action including this show highlight, a cover of Elvis Presley’s “One Night With You.” Sir Tom talks a little bit about Elvis before the song starts so hear what he has to say by pressing play!

Macklemore and Geoffrey Dicker
The hottest rapper/DJ duo (literally and figuratively) on the music scene are Macklemore (real name Ben Haggerty) and Ryan Lewis (real name Ryan Lewis). Their songs “Thrift Shop” and the gay friendly anthem “Same Love” are virtually unbeatable on the charts. It’s nice to know a quick burst of fame has not gone to their heads and I hope it stays that way.
Ryan Lewis and Geoffrey Dicker
Macklemore and Ryan Lewis have just set a new record for having their first 2 singles become #1 on the charts. Keep it up dudes and please stay nice!

None of us are Free Until All of Us Are Equal
It’s the midway point of 2013 and not the Middle Ages. In New York, there has been an alarming increase of hate crimes directed towards gays in the last couple of weeks. This is not ok.
Why certain people can’t accept the fact that homosexual thoughts have popped into their heads at one time or another is beyond me. If you do any research on the brain, you’ll find that all we do is have thoughts. Millions of them a day, in fact. Just because a thought pops into your head, it doesn’t necessarily mean you will act upon it and it also doesn’t mean that entertaining a thought makes you “normal” or “abnormal.”
Unfortunately, we live by an antiquated definition of what “normal” means and in fact, “normal” defies a definition since the word implies an infinite number of possibilities.
We all have to inhabit this world together. That means some people will have different thoughts, opinions, preferences and tastes than others. That doesn’t make ANYONE “right” or “wrong.” It just means that life is beautiful in that people have differences of opinion. Everything we say or do is really just an opinion when you boil it down and NOBODY has the right to say their opinion is more accurate or less accurate than another person’s. We must learn to agree to disagree PEACEFULLY.
Spread the love and not the hatred.
None of us are free until all of us are equal.
Pass it on!!!!

Love this fake Basketball card that is making the rounds on the streets of New York. Sounds like a bunch of players that can buy and sell us with the crazy amounts of money they make. Back on topic – do you think this card would have been made by Topps, Fleer or Upper Deck?
