Dan Baxter is back again with one of his night life videos. This video was all shot at Trash at Webster Hall. It features music by Trash’s DJ Jess who has teamed up with Bastard to form Carpe PM. It’s also a remix of DBB friends Semi Precious Weapons. On top of all that it includes some naked girls and a lot of footage of me when I still had long hair. Clearly it’s not to be missed. I mean, I am pretty damn sexy. Not Safe For Work.

Ps. Dan has some footage of me pretty much crying while watching football, hopefully I can post that one day. I get pretty intense.

The Yes Men are at it again, and all this week.  Their movie The Yes Men Fix The World opened at the Film Forum yesterday and they decided to make the screenings slightly longer than 87 minutes.  After each screening they are leading the viewers on actions around the city.  The have almost no advertising budget so hopefully these viral actions will help make change, but also promote their film.  After the screening last night they led the crowd to a random Chase bank to do a mini action to protest JP Morgan Chase’s funding of mountain top removal coal mining.  They handed out coal to everyone and had them let Chase know how they felt. I have no intention of getting into a discussion of the financial and environmental issues behind coal, but you should check out the Yes Men blog if you want to know more about the action.  They are doing this stuff all week, so make sure you check their film out soon! It is really good.

Check out my shots of the Chase protest here. It is clearly not my best work, but I had a lot of fun anyway.  I would never vandalize private property in anyway ever, but if I did, it might look something like this.

PS. Shout out to my friends Scott and Liz who I saw for the first time in ages last night. Their company Evil Twin handles the bookings for the Yes Men and other entertainers who “think and act”.

I once started a completely separate Miami Dolphins site just to keep shit like this off my main page.  I know nearly every single person who visits this site does not care about it, but it’s my damn site, and I will do as I like with it, even though I feel the need to apologize to you about it every time I put up pictures from DolfansNYC events.

Anyway, last Sunday was the first week we could enjoy ourselves at Third and Long.  The Dolphins kicked the shit out of the Buffalo Bills from start to finish.  It was great, and made for better photos.  I am only going to post one below, but you can click here to see more of the pictures from Sunday’s DolfansNYC meet up.

Let me start off by saying that I hate the reputation my site has for being pornographic. Yeah, I shoot naked people from time to time, but the vast majority of stuff on this site has nothing to do with sex or nudity. On top of that my photography, while trashy at times, tends to be pretty tame.  It’s mostly just topless girls.  That being said, I am about to review a porn film so I guess I am just going to have to deal with the haters. At least the nudity brings in a shit load of traffic.

When I was in LA in June, one of the things I did out there was to shoot a spec assignment for Vice that was to ultimately land on the Viceland blog.  Months has passed and my editor took forever to get back to me and he finally just disappeared, so I have no idea what happened to the story.  Hopefully the editor will return one day and at the very least I will get a rejection so I can post the article on here.

The article in question was a behind the scenes look at the filming of a porn feature LA Pink.  LA Pink is a parody of Kat Von D’s show LA Ink and is the most ambitious effort from Brooklyn based alt-porn company Burning Angel.  Director, star and friend Joanna Angel told me that I could hang out on set for a day and shoot photos.  It was pretty exhausting day and 95% of the time was spent shooting dilologue and nearly all of it made it into the film.

LA Pink finally came out last weekend and Joanna gave me a copy. The film is nearly three hours long and has 9 sex scenes in it.  That is crazy.  It is a double disk DVD and has a shit ton of bonus features, which although I haven’t watched yet, I know for a fact has some insane behind the scenes footage. And here is the craziest part… The movie is actually good.

Since I saw a lot of the sex scenes in person I just decided to mostly skip them when watching the movie.  I just watched the story, and it is pretty fucking funny.  The film is well shot despite some of the porn required terrible sets and bad continuity. The acting is surprisingly good with Joanna and boyfriend James Deen delivering solid performances.  James is the star of pretty much every porn parody film, so he has had a lot of practice.  The real star of the movie is porn veteran Sean Michaels who is maybe the greatest living actor.  While on set, he had my cracking up with the seriousness he delivered his ridiculous lines.  I have would give the best supporting actor role to my boy Brian Street Team who while having a minimal role delivered at least 50% of the laughs. He also gets a blow job from three insanely girls which I saw in person and is probably one of the hottest and funniest porn scenes I have watched.

Other sex scenes include Joanna solo, Joanna and Draven doing a lesbian scene, Joanna getting double penetrated by James and Sean, a crazy threesome involving Coco Velvet and Andy San Dimas that almost broke the table, and a lesbian orgy that turns into reverse gang bang involving every girl in the film and James Deen. It also features your standard boy girl sex scenes with Joanna & Sean and James & Misti Dawn, but they were shot at the same time and inter-spliced to form a Voltronesque super scene.

On top of all the laughs and crazy sex you also get to see my feature film debut an extra! I play a guy on a couch who is twittering while he is waiting for a tattoo.  I was actually twittering about playing a twitterer. How fucking meta.  Other interesting notes are the fact that the film was co-written by NYC nightlife icon and good friend DJ Jess. Joanna was actually on LA Ink and has a big Kat Von D tattoo. The film was edited by DBB friend Doug Sakmann and from what I can tell pretty much the only song on the sound track is a ShiraGirl song which features a former intern of mine on bass.  Fucking awesome.

So yeah, go to Burning Angel now and buy your copy.  You can watch the totally safe for work trailer below.

These are a day late, but after watching the Dolphins finally win a game, properly trouncing the Buffalo Bills, I was pretty much too ecstatic to do anything.  I just wanted to celebrate by going over to my lady’s house and hanging out with her, but we managed to severely depress each other, and just laid around moping which was an intresting twist to the evening.  Still, all in all a good night.

So back to Saturday. I haven’t shot Glamdammit since it moved to Don Hills because well, I hate going out to Don Hills.  It is so far away from everything.  It is the same reason you never see me at Sway.  Unless I am getting paid to shoot there, I am never out there. I did decide that I had to be there for the 5th Anniversary though.  And I wanted to see Kissy Kamikaze and it is always super entertaining to watch Michael T to sing.

Turned out to be a pretty fun night, although Don Hills is so big that despite a pretty good crowd it felt a little under attended.  Still there were a lot of my favorite weirdos who show up to anything with Michael T’s name on it as well as sexy ladies and good music.  As a photographer, I can’t ask for too much more.

Click here to see all the photos from Twig The Wonder Kid’s Glamdammit 5th Anniversary Party at Don Hill’s.

Ps. While looking for some pictures to highlight below, I just realized that these photos all kinda suck.  My bad.

Andy Shaw has been trying to get me to check out his band Kissy Kamikaze forever, and I always somehow miss them.  I tend to not leave my house before midnight and they seem to always play before dance parties in that like 11pm set.  But they played the Glamdammit 5th year anniversary on Saturday night and it was the release party for their new CD so I decided to leave my house a bit earlier than normal. They had just started playing when I walked in and were fucking shit up.  The crowd seemed really tame compared to the music that was coming from the stage.  I wanted to start fucking shit up in the pit, but instead I was asked to move out of the way so a girl in a wheelchair could see better.  I think it was pretty clear to me that Kissy Kamikaze should be playing dirty skumfuck punk venues and not Glam rock dance parties, but as a skumfuck punk rocker myself, I enjoyed their set a lot, I just wish the crowd was slightly more active.  My one complaint for them was that they seemed to try to be a little cutesy instead of getting ugly and in peoples faces like their music suggests. I’d just like to see some people get spit on and some punches thrown instead of hugging.  Still, they were pretty fucking awesome and I rarely get to shoot punk bands any more, so I was pretty happy about that.

So things have been a bit slow around here with me being a little sick and trying to get caught up with all my back logged photo updates. Well, I am caught up and less sick and ready to rock, but I wanted to let you know that even when things are slow on DBB, I am always updating my Twittter with all sorts of things from videos, links, hilarity and wacky antics. In case you missed it over the last week, I am going to repost some of the links I sent out into the interwebs. If you like any of this stuff, you should probably be following me on Twitter. If you are on Twitter, you shout Retweet this post (and every post) using the Retweet button in the upper left corner of this post. Then everyone will get the wondrous joy that is this post.

• I was recently wondering aloud about how the type of person who can’t figure out how to use a condom is the person who can least afford to have kids. Luckily these easy to use condoms have been invented for complete morons. The testimonials are hilarious.
• I was lamenting about how my favorite horror franchise, Nightmare On Elm St., is being remade by Michael Bay and a music video director. At least it can’t be as bad as Freddy 6…. I hope.

• I was giving mediocre CNN pundit Roland Martin props for his takedown of flag waving GOP members who rejoiced when Chicago lost it’s 2016 Olympic bid.

• I linked to a video of a nearly naked hipster dancing around Williamsburg before the Grizzly Bear Pool Party show. I didn’t see him, did you?

• I got a 19 out of 20 on this Helvetica quiz. I guess it pays to have nothing but graphic designer friends. If by payment you mean having way to much information on overused type faces stuck in your head for no reason.

• I never liked butterfly tattoos or tramp stamps until I saw this butterfly tramp stamp. Now I need one of my own! Who wants to get matching ones with me? NSFW.

• And lastly the video of the week… Watch this crazy guy rant about helicopters at a city council meeting. If he was there every week, I would become a councilman. Fucking brilliant.

 The New York Premiere of Zombieland was Thursday night and Columbia pictures hired Doug Sakmann and the New York Zombie Crawl team to paint and deliver several hundred zombies to Times Square for a free screening to anyone wearing Zombie makeup.  I think the amount of people was a bit underestimated because there were lines around the block waiting to get their makeup done by Doug and his team at The Mean Fiddler.  After two straight hours of doing zombie makeup they had given out 600 tickets to the undead and Doug led them on a crawl to  the Times Square AMC.  The crawl turned into a run as they realized things were running late and Doug started charging down the street.

I am not sure if you have ever seen well over 600 zombies running down Broadway a 8PM on a Thursday, but I can tell you this… the police hadn’t.  There is a police station in the middle of Times Square and there were cops everywhere.  They had no idea how to handle this.  They would arrive on the scene, pull out their batons, and then sort of put them back, looking confused.  The mob almost got out of hand when zombies started attacking cars and knocking over chairs and tables, but after several cop cars with sirens blazing started escorting the zombies down Broadway, things calmed down a bit.  That did not stop a limo driver from punching a zombie or stopping a 16 Wheeler from crashing into a Lexus outside the movie theater.  How does he explain a zombie attack to his insurance company?

Once we go to the theater it was sort of madness getting everyone inside.  Even with 600 tickets tons of zombies didn’t get any.  The movie theater played it on three screens and from what I could tell, they packed them. When I walked in all these press photographers were lined up behind a red rope ready to shoot Woody Harrelson standing in front of the Zombieland poster.  They were furious because zombies kept getting into their shot.  Luckily I had free reign and I grabbed Doug and got shots of him and Woody as well as getting a better shot of Woody and the poster than any of the pro guys did.  It was pretty funny.  They even let me in the movie with my camera even though most people had to check theirs.  It pays to know the undead.

The movie itself was way better than I thought it would be.  I was expecting some dumb horror comedy, but it turned out to be a really great dumb horror comedy. It was very violent, very funny and the romantic subplot was only slightly lame and cheesy.  I don’t really like the idea that zombies can run, but the amazing Bill Murray cameo made up for it.  I am not going to tell you anything about Bill Murray’s cameo because I don’t want to ruin it, but it might be the best of his career, and I have seen pretty much every film he has ever been in. That’s fact.

After the movie I had an entirely different adventure.  I rode the train home with a friend of a friend and he didn’t have a metro card on him.  I didn’t want to wait, so I convinced him to go in at the same time with me.  He didn’t want to but he did anyway and the cops stopped us.  I didn’t really know why but when they stopped us he started losing his shit. He didn’t have his ID on him so they took us to the Subway police station while they ran my ID and tried to find him in the system.  Turns out he had just been arrested for having a knife on him.  When they searched his bag they found crack, heroin and a fucking crossbow.  So this time, while he had no Medieval weapons on him, he did have two bags of dope and was on probation.  When they weren’t looking he pulled them out of his pocked and fucking swallowed them like we were in a cop movie.  It was nuts.  We ended up just getting tickets and it was the happiest I have ever been to pay a $100 fine.

Anyway, it was a crazy evening and here are the pictures to prove it.  NSFW for gore and a zombie nip.

So during EXXXotica last weekend I had this hilarious idea of getting people naked in the back of the two door GTI that I once owned before I moved to New York.  That car now belongs to my parents, but my brother was borrowing it, so I borrowed it from him so I could drive to NJ for EXXXotica.  Long story short, I had this really small car and I thought it would be funny to set it up like a photo booth.  I put the seats down and put this funny greenish striped sheet.  I was going to set up multiple strobes and fill the back windows with my logo like it was a step and repeat wall you would see at a movie premiere or something. The idea was never fully realized but I did shoot a few people back there.  I ran into my friend Nyssa Nevers and her and her friend Stephanie shot back there the first day, and then my friend Nova from Burning Angel shot in there the second day.  A few other people said they wanted to do it, but it never happened.  Such is life. Still, I think the shots actually came out well, and I think the idea has legs.  Maybe one day I will bring it back, but until then, click here to see all the hatchback photo booth pictures from EXXXotica NY. Not Safe For Work, clearly.

Ps. Is the butt shot of Nova too much for the main page?  I can’t decide, but it was my favorite picture from the shoot so I said “Fuck it.” Let me know if you think it is too much and I will replace it with something else.  Believe it or not, I do consider these things.
