“Be in my video” .. Dr. Dot in Stakka music video

First I want to say today has been one hell of a Monday. I woke up, looked at my text messages and got one from DEZ the guitarist of the Misfits (former Black Flag) which said “Hi Dotty, how are you?” and there was a photo of him in his scary gear, you know, white make up and dark eyes, wearing a hood, I was like OMG! LOL! What a thing to wake up to. Then he called to chat, he was about to go sound check in North Carolina. He is getting married soon and wants me to meet his woman. I will go to their Halloween show at BB Kings in NYC and finally meet her. Dez is wicked cool, you should read the blog I wrote about the Misfits and Dez a few months ago, you may grow to love him too. Click HERE to see that hilarious blog.

Then I went to a recording studio owned by my pal Michelangelo and his band called SUPERHERO. They helped me lay 5 tracks down for a just for shits and grins demo cd. I did 'Dirty Deeds', 'Highway to Hell', 'Black Dog', 'Old time Rock and Roll'(don't think Tom gay fucking Cruise please, think Bob kick ass Seger!), 'I Feel Good' (James Brown), and 'Rock and Roll (Led Zep). Took ages but it's done and sounds great. If I can figure out how to get the bastard online, I will share it with you. I have no voice now lol!

It has taken two years, but finally the MTV headed music video I took part in is finally done. The director sent me the link today. The artist is called STAKKA (real name is Shaun Morris) and he is a Drum & Bass star in his native UK (he lives in Brooklyn but is from England). The song is called 'Mars Attacks' and it is pretty good even though I don't like that type of music, it sounds cool! Click HERE to read more about STAKKA.

I play his girlfriend and you will first see me in the middle of the video wearing a officers hat in the office and then talking to him on the phone then at the end I rub his chest and walk with STAKKA then kiss him. The concept is, aliens are taking over the USA and Stakka saves the day…

It should air soon on MTV internationally.

Pennyroyals show at CBGBS

The Planet Verge girls asked me to host the Pennyroyals show at CBGBS a while ago (10 days ago) and I was very flattered and accepted. My apologies for taking so long to write about it, but I have been a tad ill and waaay too busy all at the same time. I dragged Antonio (bass player of the band Copperpot) and Mechel along with me. We all stopped into visit Arturo first.

When we arrived in front of CBGBS, people were star-struck in a way to see Antonio there. He is very well known and his band has a huge following.

^ Hosting the show (picture by Cristina) in case you are wondering, that shirt I'm wearing is a Misfits shirt.

Ask Dr. Dot

Dear Dr. Dot,

In the beginning of my relationship with my girlfriend, she was naughtier than I was. She brought me to swingers clubs and eagerly put a porn dvd in before we did the deed. Now, 6 months later, she rips my face off even if I look at a Girls Gone Wild commercial too long. I feel like she is a different person now. How do I get her to be dirty again?

Confused

Dear Confused,

Sounds like a case of the ol' bait and switch. I know a guy whose wife did the same thing, now they only shag to reproduce. I think that is down rite cruel. Luckily you aren't married yet and you can bail. Before giving up completely, just go back to your old ways, and when she reacts like a nun, call her on it, tell her it's unfair and very misleading to reel you in with a strong sex appeal that was really just a mirage. Speak your mind and be a man about it. It's bullshit behavior and you know it. If she doesn't snap back to her usual self, or at least a toned down version of it, move on. It's (sadly) standard that the sex life cools down a bit, but to go from wild sex to monk like behavior is too much to put up with if you are under 60. Many people put up a false front to lure a partner in, then the “real” habits surface. It depends on how much you love them and what your priorities are when determining whether or not you are going to put up with their crap or not. Life is short, if they aren't making you happy, move the fuck on.

The Experts Guide Party

The Experts Guide Party (Thursday Night) was alright, but Donald Trump didn't come due to bad planning on someone's part, as he launched his new magazine “Trump World” the same night! (Hope he doesn't put himself on the cover of every issue like another celebrity here in the states-not mentioning any names, but she has her own magazine and puts her own picture on the cover of every issue, which I find a little too much). Anyhow, the main author, Samantha Ettus, who enlisted the Experts for her book 'The Experts Guide to Life' was naturally there and I was asked to pose with her, as were the other Experts there.

That is Samantha and I holding up the book.

When she first laid eyes on me (first time we met in person) she yelled “You are so YOUNG! Oh my god!”. Well, what did she think I was another Dr. Ruth already? Was she expecting me to come wobbling in with a cane? She must have been too busy to look at my web sites.

After the press photographed us, I met Alex Michel, the Original Bachelor, (you know those LAME reality shows that take hot guys and make the chicks fight over them over a few weeks?). Well, I personally have never seen the show, and told him so. He said he has heard a lot about me and wants to do a documentary about me, follow me around with cameras etc. I said, 'take a number buddy!'. Hee hee, I was in a pretty sarcastic mood there as I am still ill and well, I hate all that ass-kissing that goes on at such VIP parties. We chatted for a while and he wanted a sample of my grip, so I rubbed his shoulders for a minute and the press snapped me doing so. There is a magazine here called The New Yorker and the photographer there was from that magazine, so that is where it will end up I guess. Anyhow, I told him I have never seen him, but I know of another Bachelor from US magazine who is eye candy. Alex snapped, “Well, I am the ORIGINAL Bachelor, he got tips for me!”.

Alexandra and I met Andrew Firestone, the aforementioned other Bachelor.

Andrew has had it made, even before birth. He was born into the Firestone family, you know the TIRES that are probably on your car/suv/truck. In other words, he is RICH as hell. He is one of the experts in the book, he wrote the chapter on how to open a wine bottle. He knows he is hot and sought after and I found him a bit snobby if you want to know the truth. I wouldn't be so smug if I was him, he has small feet and a tiny nose, and we ALL know what that means. You shouldn't act like prick unless you are packing a big one. Smiles

After hours of sweating in that hot as HELL French restaurant, (which only had ONE ladies toilet, hello? Hundreds of ladies and one crapper? Cut corners somewhere else pal) Alexandra and I and two ladies from Arizona (one was an Expert who wrote “How to eat with Chop Sticks” named Laura) all piled into my car (the other girl is Asian and her name is hard to remember, something like Tusay) and headed towards a restaurant that they ALL insisted on going to called Indo-Chine.

Here I am attempting to eat eggplant with chop sticks, the girl next to me is Laura, the Expert on Chop Sticks, and not even she could teach me how to use those friggin things so I flagged down our hottie waiter and demanded a fork. By the time I would learn, I would have fainted from hunger!

None of the girls are from NYC (Alexandra has never even been to the USA before) and they have ALL heard about this place. They heard many stars go there and the food is great etc. No stars and the food was NOT all that. No brown rice? Way over priced and the Bathroom was hot as HELL! Jonesy joined us and we all crammed into my car to go to karaoke. Alexandra was too jet lagged and jumped out at her hotel, then we raised HELL. I drive faster and better than any cab driver in Manhattan. I zoom in and out and around the sea of taxis like Michael Schumacher and my passengers love it. I crank the music (usually FUNK to get us rowdy) and fly like the wind. It's like a roller coaster ride.

Roller Coaster

Laura and Tusay really let loose in the car. I took Laura's MOM type earrings our and messed up her hair, took those chop sticks out of her “I don't want sex” hair do and she went wild in the car. There were limbs waving out of every window, including my sun roof and Jonesy video taped the whole time as usual (He has tons of rowdy footage, remind me to bribe him for the tapes).

In the karaoke joint, Jonesy and I decided to try songs we have never tried before as it was pretty empty. I sang “I'm a SOUL MAN” from the blues brothers. It sounded awesome but it is hard to pull off a Blues Brothers tune in a fucking prom dress! Jonesy did Stevie Wonder's “You are the sunshine of my life” so well, the two black dudes in the place gave him jealous looks.Then I did “A day in the life” from the Beatles and I had the timing down perfect, but it's not my range (odd, as it sounds prefect when I sing it in my car!). Laura and Tusay danced when we sang but they refused to sing.

Now, with all that partying, I am back to square one with this evil cold Sicky

You don’t know how lucky you are boy…

As always, I am editing my books with one eye and have the other on Animal Planets “Animal Cops “ this time it is filmed in Houston, and I can NOT eat my yogurt any more, after seeing the 5 horses they have just discovered. The horses are nothing but BONES – you can see every bone in all of their bodies and most have duct tape wrapped around their hooves, probably holding them together!

The officers say the horses probably haven’t had a decent meal for 6 months. The horses were so hungry that they were eating away at the wooden barn they were kept in.

People who mistreat their animals should get the same exact treatment put onto them. Wankers! Animals can not ask for help. It is beyond cruel to mistreat a helpless animal, I am pretty sure, if there is a hell, these folks will end up there on a tight leash.

When I end up rolling in cash, I will be funding such shows as Animal Cops and Animal Precinct and of course the ASPCA. Love them.

Curse of the Sopranos and Beyonce Knowles gorgeous behind

I have never seen the Sopranos ( that show on HBO?) BUT I know about the show, because, EVERYDAY since I have lived back in the USA ( 18 months) people come up to me and tell me “You look JUST like that girl from the Sopranos” or “Oh, I thought you-

-were her!! Adriana from the Sopranos” So, let us have a look

You decide, do we look alike? I wish I could figure out how to write NEXT to the photos, but the BLOG format won't let me.So now, let us talk about Beyonce's gorgeous rump.I don't understand why the world makes such a fuss about Jennifer Lopez's ass, because Beyonce has obviously more back than J.Lo. Baby's got a bootylicious back side and she should have it insured.Just thought I would mention my admiration for curvy women.I was in CVS tonight, in the “diet pills” section, as my pal told me he is so thin and trim thanks to these pills.

Photos from the CT and MASS trip as promised…

Bit by Bit I will add photos now, starting with Lisa's strange white cat, she pays 50 bucks a whack to have him(?) shaved into a LION, the cat normally has super LONG hair,she has it cut all over, very short, except the tip of the tail and all around the head, to make it into a mini-suburb lion cat. I can't believe no one steals this gorgeous walking piece of furry art! That is what people in the Suburbs do to get their thrills, shave their cats, get wasted and have a LOT of sex.Can you blame em? It is called the simple life 🙂This other Photo below, is the Tattoo I was writting about a couple weeks ago.It is Arturo, the artist who did EVERY Ramones album cover and invented this cool logo for them. He added his own name there, and got rid of one of the Ramones names.To find out why, go back and read what I wrote in the blog titled RAMONES.The photo below is Arturo – check out his site: http://www.officialramones.com

Ramones in my heart (date today: august 24th 2003)

Oh yes, another blog without photos- and no spell check, you have my sympathy. I am still up here in MASS, did a lot of shopping today with Jasmine, we raided Tower Records- had to have Ottis Redding's greatest hits and ANOTHER copy of the Beatles “1” ( all their number 1 hits). As we were getting into the car, the car next to us, which had a puertorican guy in it, stepped out to start fighting with many other guys, they were all fighting and screaming and bumping into our car while waving knives around, I put the windows up as fast as possible and locked all the doors and just peeled out of the parking space as fast as possible, it was already dark, like around 9:00pm, so I was lucky to not have ran anyone over, but we were in the middle of some black/puertorican gang fight, what the HELL!!! Not sure what town it was, I guess it was Burlington – as the Burlington mall was just down the road. Didn't expect such a thing to happen in a parking lot of tower records- there was a big crowd gathering by the time we got to the exit of the lot. Close call. So I guess you just never know where is safe. I went through my floppy discs tonight, trying to get organised and came across many emails from Joey Ramone. I am not assuming you all know who he is, but he was my first real love, my first real boy friend.

The emails were from 1999 to just before he died. Even though we werent together anymore, we still kept in touch and adored eachother. I am wondering what he would think of what is going on now that he is up there in rock and roll heaven. As Jasmine and I shopped, we saw so many Joey Ramone dolls and Ramones crap for sale, plus, have you all heard the new At&t commercial ” hey ho lets go”?( read:someone is CASHING IN BIG TIME!) Now that Joey is dead, the money starts pouring in? Doesn't that SUCK that artist make so much money after they die? What really makes me sad, is how Arturo is getting treated. ( see photos of Arturo in my Ramones section, in the STAR section). He designed every LP/CD cover and T-shirt of the Ramones, he invented the very popular Ramones symbol, the eagle holding a baseball bat in his claw. He was with the Ramones from the begining, he took the photo of them out side of his flat in the east villiage for the album cover road to ruin.

He toured with the for YEARS(did lights sometimes sound, etc), he was family! He runs the www.officialramones.com web site and preaches their music even now.How does he get repaid? Joeys mother and brother cut him out completely and are being so mean to him, I can't even write the whole story as it would cause so much trouble. Even Joeys last solo lp that came out, they used Arturos eagle symbol and didnt pay any royalties to Arturo or even say thanks. I find this rude. If Joey and Dee Dee were alive to witness this, they would FREAK out! Thank god one of the Ramones still appreciates Arturo, Johnny is still freindly to him, but then again, he makes a lot of money off of the merchendise that Arturo makes and sells. Perhaps it is none of my buisness, but I also toured a few years in a row with the Ramones, on Joeys side, hell, I never went to school on fridays the whole 11th and 12th grade, seen over 100 shows- so I could spend the three days with Joey.

For those of you who havent read my book ( its only out in GERMANY presently, but will come out soon here) I convinced Joey to have the Ramones come to my tiny little corn field town, Ellington CT, to play at a restaraunt/bar called the Country Squire. ( now it is called Chippinos or something). My whole high school was there, they didnt believe me until the very last minute, the Ramones came almost 2 hours late, apparently the cops pulled them over and have them a lot of shit ( CT state troopers are the most shrewd cops!) . It was spring 1984 and they rocked the roof off! Joey was so tall, he had to bend a bit on the knees to sing on the stage the whole time, and between sets, they all went out side and were amazed that there was corn and cows all around the whole building- Richie was the drummer at that time and it was fucking fun! Anyhow, it was overwhelming tonite to read all of Joeys sweet emails, he was very concerned always about Jasmine, he wrote in every email , “how is the little one? ” etc. Also, after reading my Ramones chapters that I sent him, he approved and enjoyed them, but asked me to “go easy on Johnny will ya?” .

So I went back and edited my wrath of Johnny (anyone who knows the Ramones knows that Johnny was a manipulative grumpy fucker most of the time- even the crew couldnt stand him!!! This is not gossip, this is the truth. One thing about me, I never exaggerate- if anything, I leave shit out to protect people. Somethings you just have to get off your chest, it is called freedom of speech- and I believe it goes for the written form too, don't you? I heard tonite that Howard Stern will go off the air soon, E! didnt want to extend his contract- does anyone know the real story? Is this true? can I already celebrate? Let me know if you know. If not, I challange him to go one month, or even one week, without mentioning womens breats/tits/jugs what have you- or showing them, even drawings of them. I bet he can't. Sad to see a show more dependent on breast then a new born. It is 5am- “the torture never stops!” (frank zappa quote)
