Andrew WK - I Love NEW YORK CITY

MoCCA PhotOs

I made a concerted effort to take some photos of MoCCA, as I came out of TCAF with not ONE.
(well yes half of them were drunken photos around Times Square, but damn it I took pictures)




So this was the view from our hotel room. It was quite close to the Armory, and Times Square and stuff. The view was actually at least three times wider than this view. Those water containers on the rooftops! What are they for, besides helping Daredevil put out fires?
 

The room at our hotel had a big bed. I slept on the floor. But with only three of us in the room, it felt quite luxurious, compared to twelve person SPX rooms and so on. That is daltonsharp.

 



Okay, one Times Square picture. midnight and raining, but us tourists were crawling all over the place.
 

Here is our table, Ed at the helm.
The Dave Cooper cover on You Ain't No Dancer #1, although the oldest book on the table, was likely the one that drew the most people in.




Trying to capture the giant vaulted feeling of the room. It made me feel like I was in the middle of Synecdoche, NY.




musicslut Kean came by to say hi.




Just behind us was Phil McAndrew ( heroprotagonist ) and friends. Phil was a true gentleman, and (along with Mike Stevens) helped watch our table while we went for lunch.




Here is Jason Keiffer and Ethan Rilly at the Young Men of Toronto table. Ethan is trying to flip to display Jason's "I Love You Gabrielle Bell" comic.



When I heard that the venue for the show was the Armory I was kind of excited as I vaguely recalled some Marcel Duchamp ARMORY SHOW connection. Yes it was that Armory, where the Nude Decending a Staircase caused a hoohaw.




There were display cases with rocket launchers and so forth lovingly displayed.



Also awesome doors. And wooden phone booths.




And Mike Stevens blindmole  at a very popular spot on Sunday.
