REINE KOPFSACHE

Everyone knows that the Vagimule doll doesnt travel well. Getting off and on aeroplanes sends the lady into a classic tin thizzy of epic pork portions. Still suffering from a cough and cold congestion caught on my Air Berlin flight from Manhattan and Hurricane Sandy Dennis. Before I got dropkicked with a fever artist Nicole Blackman came by the Cheese Endique Trifecta for a New York minute. Nicole is a famous beauty in the Talmadge Sisters tradition known for her exquisite theatre for one piece The Courtesan Tales. She was looking resplendid and is one super hot glam NYC girl who occasionally makes pitstops in Berlin because her hot French boyfriend is a power executive with this company that has a Berlin branch.

I was still a bit feverish when I went to the eastside compound of la Susanne Sachsse for one of her otherworldy feasts of pure deliciousness. Before getting down with some serious gourmand eating we had a conference call with the delightful British artist Phil Collins and his sweet assistant as we will all be collaborating on the new edition of Camp/Anti-Camp and VD is SFTD that will take place Friday Nov 30 and Sat Dec 1st at Künstlerhaus Mousonturm in Frankfurt am Main. The proceedings will also feature Daniel Hendrickson, Marc Siegel, Senol Senturk, Tan Bihn Nguyen as well as my lesbiana lover Carmelita Tropicana, Hans & Jacob Lena Knebl, Juan saurez and a host of special surprise guests.

Before I left the East Coast I had one bit of business with Dr. Jose Munoz at NYU´s Performance Studies Dept with the conversation No One Leaves Delilah – A (W)rap on Race that was filled beyond capacity and some superstars had to be turned away like the great writer Hilton Als of The New Yorker with his protégé Thomas Lax and many others. Luckily Hilton and Thomas were able to join us afterwards for din din at this old fashion boite in the Village called North Square in the Washington Square Hotel. Those who were able to listen in on the doctor´s perky conv: Zach and Andrea, Lia Gangitano, Baseera Khan, Andrew Blakely, Allesandro Cadagone, the wonderful Jim Foratt who I have known for years who gave me a special gift of an olde school red receiver mobile phone adapter, the lovely Alexander Casso, Prince of Judeah Leon Hilton, Max Steele Mark Morgan Perez humpy Brian Greenberg, Viktor Rusuk and numerous other five acre celebutants.

Treated to a final breaky at A7 before I was off to JFK by that generous angel Mark MorganPerez who is just as cute cuddly and love sexy as I remember him when we first met back in the late 1990s.

Recently re-connected with old 1980s pal Alfredo Botello who is writing and directing original programming for You Tube. He sent me a sample and the series features a very hunky dark haired male ingénue. My advice to Alfie is make sure his youthful star appears with little or no clothing on and he will have a guaranteed hit.

Plaided (Fettkakao/Wien)

Julia Mitterbauer and Veronika Eberhart got to know each other while organizing the Ladyfest Vienna back in 2005. All those motivated people in that DIY-community, the workshops, shows and discussions inspired them to start a band of their own. Together with Alena Pfoser they formed their first band Ilsebill, while at the same time all three of them were wrapped up in Grounded Theory to write their Master Thesis. As none of them had played the drums or an e-guitar before, their approach to music was and still is intuitive, direct and self-taught, They improved their skills simply by playing, laughing and crying. Following a great time of exciting rehearsals and concerts, Andi Dvorak asked them to release a 7inch record on his label Fettkakao, which Ilsebill happily agreed to do. Not long after the release Alena headed to St. Petersburg to start her scientific career.

Back in Vienna Julia and Veronika started their new project Plaided by playing a concert at the Frauenbandenfest, a feminist concert evening which takes place in Vienna regularly to support local, all-female, start-up bands and offers an open stage and a well-meaning audience.

They continued experimenting with different instruments and invited guests such as Ana Threat, Stefanie Sourial, Sushi, Andi Dvorak, Natali and A Thousand Fuegos on stage. They still love DIY, Riot Grrrls, Punk, cats and big hearts. Next to their band they have a lot of other stuff on the side, while Julia creates beautiful things out of wood and drawings of birds, Veronika helps to organize the Girls Rock Camp in Wr. Neustadt, takes pictures of houses and faces, animates, and slowly starts her solo project Tirana, which already published a song on the Fettkakao Sampler (2011).

Just Friends and Lovers (Fettkakao/Graz)

Just Friends and Lovers is a Trio from Graz, Austria. the Band bloomed out of the Wilhelmine thing they are part of. Lina was in Lady Lynch before, a really great post punk band i can only encourage you to listen to. JFaL or "Jafalos" as the Plaideds call them, formed in 2011, and in no time did this spilt tape with their friends from Moscow called Love Is. you guessed right: i became a friend of the JFaLs pretty soon, and not long after begged them to work something out together on fettkakao. their first record on fettkakao is called "This Tune" and is a 7" ep (fett030).
