Chocko was in pooperazzi mode again with his dusty camera roaming the streets and clicking away. We dug into the archive that’s been piling up for the last couple of months. Here are some photographic odds and ends from in store events, galleries and theaters in no particular order. <\/p>\n

\nAfter a screening of “A Band Called Death” at Cinema Village a couple months ago, the subjects of the documentary and straight outta Detroit, DEATH<\/a> stopped by for some Q&A action and hung out in the lobby to sign posters and albums. The movie is a must see documentary about a family and a band from Detroit who predated punk music who never gave up on their dreams…a punk rock “Searching For Sugar Man!” Loved it.<\/p>\n

\"IMG_7915\"<\/a>
\nJim Jarmusch<\/strong> and Tilda Swinton<\/strong> swoop in on the New York Film Festival at Lincoln Center for a press screening of “Only Lovers Left Alive,” the new Jarmusch movie featuring hip vampires and a cool soundtrack. <\/p>\n

\"IMG_7879\"<\/a> \"IMG_7887\"<\/a>
\nThe Opening Night of \u201cRicky Powell\u2019s Funky Dope Maneuvers Photography & Slide Show\u201d featured 30 images by NYC’s Street Photographer Ricky Powell<\/a> (left). His photographs feature hip hop and rock legends, actors, artists and regular people that populate the streets of New York. DJ Stretch Armstrong<\/strong> (right) provided the cutting, scratching and the boom-bap beats for the party people at the pop-up gallery at Site 109.<\/p>\n

\nGary Numan<\/a> is back with an album that has some of his heaviest material to date. He made a stop at Vintage Vinyl in Fords, NJ to promote his latest record, “Splinter.” He performed a set of six songs including his new wave hit “Cars” and signed stuff afterwards. Numan is a major influence on electronic music and countless bands including Devo and Nine Inch Nails. Check out his in-store performance of “Cars” HERE<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"IMG_7095\"<\/a>
\nWong Kar-wai<\/strong> brought his film, “The Grandmaster” to the Museum of the Moving Image. The movie is another story involving the Wing Chun grandmaster Ip Man. Skinnier versions of Chocko and Mr. C definitely enjoyed Wong Kar-wai movies in the early 90’s at Cinema Village and Film Forum to see “Chungking Express” and “Fallen Angels.” Classics!<\/p>\n

\"IMG_7154\"<\/a>
\nStar of “Beyond The Valley of The Dolls” Marcia McBroom<\/strong> stopped by Anthology Film Archives to introduce the film during the Russ Meyer retrospective. The former model and actress of blaxploitation films is now a high school teacher in New York City! I dig her New York accent!<\/p>\n

\"IMG_8411\"<\/a> \"IMG_8442\"<\/a>
\nGreta Gerwig<\/strong> (left) made an appearance recently at Apple Store Soho to talk about her movie “Frances Ha” which just got released on Criterion – a great movie (co-written and starring Gerwig) about ambitions and friendships, shot mostly in NYC in black and white. Katey Sagal<\/a> (right) of Sons of Anarchy and Futurama also stopped by to promote her new album “Covered” with a discussion and a performance. I never knew she could sing, but apparently she has been singing for a long time and has shared the same stage with Bob Dylan, Etta James and Bette Midler. <\/p>\n

\"IMG_8504\"<\/a>
\nJoe Bob Briggs<\/a> introduced the 80’s horror comedy film “Re-Animator” at The Alamo Drafthouse in Yonkers last week. He shared some stories, fun facts about “Re-Animator” and read his initial review of the movie which was published in a Dallas newspaper and got him in a whole heap of trouble back in the day. “Basket Case” and “Frankenhooker” director, Frank Henenlotter was also in the house for the 35mm horror gem.<\/p>\n

\"IMG_8495\"<\/a>
\nNY Ink Tattoo artist, Megan Massacre<\/a> was at the Re-Thrifted show at Sacred Gallery<\/a>. Her art was displayed along with many other paintings by artists who took thrift store art and refurbished it. Show ends Nov 30.<\/p>\n

\"IMG_8613\"<\/a>
\nEvan Rachel Wood<\/strong> and director Fredrik Bond<\/strong> were at the Apple Store Soho to promote their just-released movie “Charlie Countryman” a movie shot in Bucharest, Romania which looks like a fantastic, violent and twisted, love story. I can’t wait to see it. The films opens Nov 15!<\/p>\n
