Well, I didn’t know Jamie that well at Bard. We more began to hang out a lot after we had both graduated. He lived in a loft down on Fulton Street with Chris Wangro, Whenever I decided to not go to my job, often, which was a bicycle messenger. I would hang out with them. At that time I had my first apartment on Ludlow street in the Lower East Side of Manhattan, one room, with walled off bathroom with a huge bath tub, mice and roaches, two windows at $250 a month. This picture looks to have been taken outside that apartment on the side wall of Katz’s Delicatessen. That was my TV at the time. I might be throwing it out. I chose to live with one for, I remember a year or so, probably was shorter period of time. I remember it feeling so liberating. Hard to imagine with how damn plugged in I am now. I played lots of music around that time meeting lots of people and discovered a lot about NYC through my messengering and other activities, maybe to unseemly to mention here. Then there are all the other pictures of me and Zeena Parkins that I love that Jamie took. I had never seen this one before.
