Heartbreakers on Film

June 2nd, 1979

Went to see the Hearbreakers at Maxs again. I love then I get to see them 2 or 3 nights in a row. They were as great as always. They were filming the show. Don't ask me how but I snuck up front and got right underneath Walter Lure. So Kim & I got on film. That's kind of embaressing. Well Jerry Voidoid was there so I got up the nerve & went up and talked to him about why he is not with the Voidoids anymore. We only talked for alittle while. I hope he does not hate me but I was really interested in what he is doing now. He told me he is a guitar player and a singer and he wants to start his own band. I will definetly go to see them. He told me he is recording with some friends now. I kind of feel bad that he is not with the Voidoids anymore. Oh well. I saw Howie Pyro there but only for a minute. Billy Stark was not there. I wonder where he was this weekend. Stiv Bators was there. Poor JoVan missed him.

An Encounter with Jerry Nolan

June 1st, 1979

I went to see the Heartbreakers at Max's. They did a really great show. I saw Brad from the Blessed but no Billy or Howie. And I saw Jerry Voidoid there. I hadn't seen him in so long. So after Max's we went to the Gramercy Park Diner. First Johnny Thunders came running in. He was so cute and pretty straight. Then Jerry Nolan came in and sat in the booth behind us. So when he left, Joon stole his napkin, some of his toast, and some of his french fries. The french fries are for souvenirs to send to people but we are all keeping a piece of his napkin and toast. Such strange souvenirs.

More work on the Fan Club

May 30th, 1979

Went into Eileen's house again to work on stuff for the Blessed Fan Club. We made a lot more buttons. It was lots of fun. I didn't get to see Billy Stark which was kind of disappointing but I spoke with him on the phone. It would have been more fun to see him. Instead I saw Howie Pyro but only for a car ride. I think he is kind of changing. Who knows what is going on with him. I just dropped them all off somewhere before I left. He was with these 2 guys Hal & Joey. Both were exceptionally cute - they had to be gay. Way too cute to be straight.

More Johnny Thunders

May 25th, 1979

Went to Hurrahs to see the Heatbreakers again. That place is really disqusting. They played a really long set which was so great. Johnny was not too messed up. Howie Pyro was there. After we went to Max's & CBGB's but both places were really dead. I was hoping to run into Billy but didn't find him. Oh well.

Working on the Blessed Fan Club

May 23rd, 1979

I went in really early to Eileen Polk's house. We got so much done for the Blessed Fan Club. We went all of the city getting stuff to make buttons and we made over 100 of them. They came out really good. We went out to dinner & stuff and I had such a nice time with Eileen. Billy Stark came over at around 9:30. We had lots of fun. All kinds of dreaming about the future. I stayed late until about 2:30 am. Eileen offered to let me stay if I was too tired to drive but I didn't. I really didn't want to intrude anyway. I drove Billy home. He lives in such a beautiful apartment building. Billy was so nice. We all joked about how much Howie Pyro is in all of my films. I will probably go back in next week to do more work to get ready for the Mudd Club show. Oh - I finally got all of the words to the Blessed songs. I put them in a book. I never knew how good their words were.

Eileen Polk's House

May 21st, 1979

Went to Eileen Polk's house to work on the Blessed Fan Club and watch some of the movies that I took. It was fun. Walter Lure, Billy, & Howie were also there. Walture was so funny but I think he was alittle high. Billy wore really tight Sasoon jeans. I decided that Howie is kind of self-centered. So anyway - when we were watching the Blessed shows that I had filmed I felt so dumb because I did not realize how much during a show I filmed Howie and no one else. Next show which is June 14th at the Mudd Club I am going to film alot of Billy & Walter. I think I am going to be removing Howie from my top 10 list and add Billy instead. We did not work on the fan club very much but it was just so much fun to hang out anyway.
