The Horrors of Cocaine




 
 

And being that I'm sitting here posting that Horrors of Cocaine audition tomorrow, 7/12. NYC  notice around on those social media pages in my internetaholicness, it seems only fitting that I post that notice on this blagh also for when I am trying to find content for this blog and my other blog whenever bloggers block possible. And that Horrors of Cocaine Backstage casting notice for that Horrors of Cocaine play that is to be a part of that 9/11 Cultural Festival, describes itself as something like:

Now that should be interesting also, if it actually happens. And really the only reason, well one of the reasons I wanted to post about that Horrors of Cocaine audition at a 9/11 Cultural Festival was to post that Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five Youtube video that finds itself posted above that seems as if it wants to be a soundtrack for this play for if this play actually really does see the light of day.  And if I can remember correctly, that Sugar Hill Records and Beat Street movie sound track was way cool.

And didn't I just blagh about that 9/11 Cultural festival on this blog in that post right below this post a few days ago or something. And what again, if anything, does this have to do with a No Police State.
