Here are some pictures from the Edinburgh Fringe opening party:















Radio Killed the Video Star

Nikki Bedi, BBC Asian Network host, has kindly pledged to help me in my quest to find out if Priya Pathak Ever Got Her Wallet Back:













Thanks Nikki!
The picture of Luke and Simon in the previous post was taken at Dr Roberts' Magic Bus, which got a marvellous write-up in The Guardian yesterday.

This was the accompanying photo:


Dr Robert's Magic Bus

And here is a video of that photo being taken:



It was the same photographer, Murdo McLeod, that took the picture for Pedestrian Congestion Charge last year:

Richard Dedomenici's congestion charge stunt

Murdo obviously has a sense of humour, making Anthony make tilt his head sideways to uncannily resemble the Ron Mueck baby in the same issue of G2:



You Wait for one duck's arse to come along..



















..and then two turn up at once.
It was my great honour to document the moment that Simon Casson and Luke Wright's hairdos met for the first time.

It's the first time I've seen Luke look apprehensive.

Luke wants to be Poet Laureate, and performs a rather good show on the subject upstairs from me at the Pleasance Dome.

Doesn't Simon look young since he's gotten rid of his moustache?

Ever seen a wasp eat a pigeon?




You have now.

My excellent New York friends The Wau Wau Sisters are in London to perform two gigs at the Jermyn Street Theatre. Go See!


















































Judy, Ben, Dan and Malcolm.



Competition. Guess which one of them is not an actor.

I bid farewell to New York and embark on a 1000 mile drive to Wisconsin.
This is Will:



We have been sleeping on Will's floor.

Will is an actor, but, controversially, does not work for the Apple Store.

In an attempt to escape the heatwave, I've gone to New York City, where the weather is much more British:

Whilst here I thought I'd do some warm-up gigs for my forthcoming Edinburgh run of 'Did Priya Pathak Ever Get Her Wallet Back?'. In an attempt to lure you into purchasing tickets from edfringe.com, here a preview of the start of the show:



Pretty compelling, eh?

Despite the wet weather, it's still pretty humid, and so my American hosts have been busy devising novel solutions to the problem of keeping cool. #1 The Frozen T-Shirt, as modelled by Dave, who is an actor and works for the Apple Store:

#2 Sitting in front of powerful fan in Katz' Deli:

Katz' Deli is where Meg Ryan's fake orgasm scene from When Harry Met Sally was filmed:

All sorts of famous people have been there:















Evidence that Katz' Deli is a strategic element of the Military Industrial Complex:















Ken
is an actor, and works for the Apple Store too. He has the first Ipod ever released:















What's reassuring is that, even though Great Britain has lost much of it's standing in the world, young New York kids are still listening primarily to crap British music:
