Happy Summer Solstice!
I, and others like myself were featured in the Detroit Metro Times today. You may still be able to read the article here: http://metrotimes.com (click on culture, then the gossip column "Loose Lips") or read as follows:
"CORP-GOTH
Now, what two things go together better than heavy black eyeliner and corporate America? "Corporate Goth" is an e-list devoted to those dark and dreary lovelies of the night who are forced to Abercrombie & Fitch it during daylight hours at their conservative workplaces. Some of the Detroit members converged at the Labyrinth on Saturday to meet and greet, and share their woes of the fashion oppression they must suffer from 9 to 5. List members included Krista Saint Andre (Nyte Childe), a Web designer and the undisputed queen of cuteness, and the chemist John Verburg (The Evil Chemist) of Chicago, who’s a scientist for NutraSweet. Coming all the way from *the city I live in* was customer service slave *Miranda Guthrie*, whose elaborate hairstyle was accented by a swirl of those little silver curlicues used for gift wrapping.
After a bitch session in the bathroom with fab single mom Kate Sassak, I chatted with Bob Peyre of IPM – an Internet radio show that can be heard at www.gothicindustrial.com – and paramedic Arthur Mize, who was accompanied by a gaggle of young vixens – the loyal, self-proclaimed members of the "Art Mize harem." One such member was the
ever-lovely photographer Monica Mitchell, who is searching for employment in Toronto. Mitchell was wearing a brand-new corset, and conducting a sociological study on the difference in male response received "when one’s boobs are squished up to one’s chin." Behind the bar was the boo-tiful Michele Palfalvi, keyboardist for Shadows to Ashes and mistress of Carpemortem Records. This up-and-coming label, headed by Palfalvi and her bubbly assistant Michelle Kinyon, has already signed four bands, and recently produced a compilation CD of Detroit industrial, electronic and darkwave."
And, yes I withheld *certain things*...but it's my page, I can do that. ;-}
