Nikki Sixx Shocks With , Erm, Shocking Photos



Wow Nikki Sixx discovered Joel-Peter Witkin. I remember 1994.

Here's a story about Nikki Sixx and his current rebel stance on facebook:
Toronto Sun

Silly Nikki, you can't post naked fat women on Facebook. Didn't we learn from the banned Lane Bryant bra commercial that no one likes that? And those women were clothed and normal sized.

Oh and by the way, Motley Crue amd Poison are touring together. But the part that bugs me is that The New York Dolls are opening for them.

Ben Allison to Collaborate With Robert Pinsky

Bassist and composer Ben Allison has announced performances to support his 10th album, Action-Refraction, which will be released April 12th via Palmetto. Action-Refraction marks Allison's first album of covers, and it features songs by such artists as PJ Harvey, Donny Hathaway, and Neil Young. Additionally he will have an ongoing 2011 Tuesday night workshop at Kush on NYC's Lower East Side.

Ben Allison and his trio will perform live with Poet Laureate Robert Pinsky at the New School’s Celebration Film Noir on April 5th. Allison has also been collaborating with legendary performance artist Joey Arias, in preparation for a Town Hall show April 21st.

Allison said of the project, “Artistically, Pinsky and Arias seem to be polar opposites – Poet Laureate and Downtown Diva. But both are extraordinary communicators who use words and music to get to something that’s personal and all-embracing. The freeform elements of music and poetry, and music and performance art all seem to flow from the same impulse and fit together in my mind. Robert is "America’s civic poet." Joey is a larger-than-life icon of the NYC art scene. What they have in common is a dedication to bringing their art to the public and putting themselves out there. I feel equally at home working with both of them and love the challenge and range of expression.”



Events:
April 5 @ The New School, 8pm / Ben Allison Trio
‘A Celebration of Film Noir’ with Roberty Pinsky, Frank Kimbrough & Rudy Royston
April 6 @ Jazz at Lincoln Center, 7pm / Ben Allison
Listening Party for ‘Action-Refraction’ and Q&A with Ken Druker
