My Week in Photos: Porn, Rock and Booze
A few weeks ago I told you about some things to do in New York this month: a Mondo Porno Party, a KISS expo and an NYCBP.com booze cruise. If you didn't take my advice, here's what you missed:

Mondo Porno Paty — A woman dressed as a clown hit me with a flying tube of lube, and that didn't even challenge for the top spot of most bizarre things I experienced. I also saw a topless female clown get "drowned" with fake urine, a transgendered drummer named Goddess Diana try to stow away "her" package, a woman win a Baby Jesus Butt Plug by putting it in her mouth, a woman destroy an erotic piñata, a guy get a two-second blow job on stage (I think, couldn't really see too well) and, yes, a goth dude with long painted fingernails in a tight dress go down on his girlfriend while she sat on a bar and posed for pictures. Elsewhere in New York, tourists drank overpriced beers in Times Square.

Pictures from the Mondo Porno Party. Password is: mondo. I'm not your mother. Don't blame me if you see something you're not supposed to view.

NYC KISS Expo — I'm a huge KISS fan, so I always wanted to attend one of these conventions. It was like a sporting event, where almost everybody was wearing a t-shirt supporting the home team, in this case, KISS. And, yes, I had a silver-studded logo t-shirt on. Folks, you name the product, and KISS' name has been stamped on it. I saw KISS incense, KISS board games, KISS bowling balls, KISS condoms, KISS baseballs, KISS everything. My only purchase: a KISS Destroyer 500-piece jigsaw puzzle that I bought for $8. I had to split for a touch football game before any of the bands performed, so I'll just have to go back next year and pick up one of those KISS pool cues or Christmas tree ornaments.

Pictures from the KISS expo. Nothing great, but you get a sense of the scene.

NYCBP.com Booze Cruise — I've been on this same boat maybe five or six times, and every one is a riot. Basically, you're trapped in a drinking environment for three hours, there's beautiful landmarks, bridges and skylines everywhere ... plus, the wild bartenders give some of these dudes the time of their lives. I had a blast again. The only talented photographer on board was my buddy Clay Enos, and it's always fun to try to capture a wild shot without his hand in the way. I'll let you know where and when his shots are posted, because they're gonna be 100 times better than mine.

As always you can view all of my photos at this Fotki.com link. I don't always post here when I upload new photos — like when I add a few to my Miscellaneous NYC Photos folder — but you can keep this What's New link handy and check that from time to time.

I want Mondo Porno to play at my birthday party this year. I am in love. Any info on how to reach them? I also want those bartenders there too :). That combo could make an otherwise dull birthday something memorable. You will get an invite PK.

As always, your pics are fabulous!

Mondo Porno is not a band, it's an event. They're held every few months in New York, San Fran and at least one in Boston:

The name of the band you're probably talking about is Erocktica:

They're playing tonight at Mr. Beery's in Bethpage, Long Island, and next Saturday, the 28th, at The Knitting Factory in Manhattan.

There's a booking phone number and plenty of e-mails on their contact page if you're interested.
