About Me

I started mySpace when I was back in the UK. I love the UK. The "Curse" bit refers to myZine (see myPics).All the covers were printed by mySelf. It was issued in Williamsburg Brooklyn NY from january 1994 thru April 2000 Each full moon. It was the only magazine with a natural advert. You looked up in the sky and if there was a full moon, you could go and hunt for it along my paper route.It's fun being on mySpace because the people that were in the original Curse 'zines are here too - Spike, Joe Maynard, Nina Antonio, Laura Cantrell, The Hound, Martha Wainwright, Alexander, Richard Hell, Legs McNeill, Victoria Williams - I'm adding them so you can see who's who.The Curse was lifted from Teddy's Bar and Grill, the L Cafe, The Right Bank, the diner and other fine establishments before it got crazy expensive to live there and i moved to manhattan.Issues? I've got back issues!
