Lady Lauren Reilly was in full flower yesterday at Sour Mouse on Delancey celebrating her birthday with a great scene and a great hang throwback to real times in music culture! Bonus I got to see my main man the bass sensation Motoki Mihara!

13 long years since Gloria's brother Johnny left us (only one month after my mom). I will always miss my brother-in-law and friend.

13 years today without my Mom. I'm a bar mitzvah of a motherless child. I miss her presence in my life and the presence she would have been for my kids. She was there when I needed her, I owe her everything, and I will always love and miss her.
