the late Ellliot Kidd (had a NYC band called the Demons w/Walter Lure) was M.C.'s nephew, he had some great stories....
Where is that painting now?!
Liz Renay! Always a fascinating read! From coverage of her burial:
"Renay would recall to friends that as a young woman she would perform naked in front of farmers' fields, picturing the rows of crops as her audience.
When the wind came along and the leaves would rustle, she imagined it was applause for her."
