Call Me Shecky Nomad



I wrote the following  linked posting over 3 years ago and I am still getting hate mail for it. This last one "This is truly the worst site I have come across. pretty immature writing." I am thinking about putting on my resume.

Tonight, I have been asked  (and nervously agreed - actually I had to be berated into it since I am such a chickenshit) to be the host/emcee of NYC's Original Punk Rock Heavy Metal Karaoke. Essentially, you get to indulge your inner rock god by singing with a kick ass band backing you up. Everything from The Misfits to Black Flag to Led Zep to Alice Cooper to Motorhead to The Ramones to AC/DC to Kelly Clarkson (yeah- KC was my request for them to learn).

As I usually am full of "liquid courage" as a participant, my modus operandi will have to change tonite as I will be responsible for the flow of the evening, encouraging the fledgling Robert Plant/Axl Rose/Joey Ramone/Joan Jett's and telling bad borscht belt jokes.

To say that I am crapping my pants in fear would be an understatement.

C'mon down at 10 pm if you're in the Noo Yawk environs. (Fontana's 105 Eldridge St. NYC)

Surprisingly well. I was very handsome in my Miley Cyrus tour shirt and no one threw tomatoes at me when I had to mug for some time when the guitar player had to take a piss break and I did an a capella version of the theme song from Hair.

Punk fucking rock!

Plus, there were hot chicks!
