    A great follow up in depth underground launch for those looking to see more on the "Party Monster" glams. I am not sure why Im drawn to this, perhaps because of hour far to the edge it reaches, my concern would be what does it achieve. Nonetheless, can't turn my head away.

    Good luck and please check out my first vid launch, We Create.

    entertaining persona but i choose not to vote for the cult of celebrity. i'd rather read his book.

    Amazing, I love the cult of celebrity when it centers on someone who encourages "freaks" to be themselves and love it and spread that love. James is an amazing activist who's word should be spread far and wide!

    just not such an interesting person. He is visually beautiful but not interesting to listen to.

    Good we need more stuff like this! The pod serves many purposes the most important being that it help us understand that being a little different does not mean we are a bad person. It helps bkeak standards! Great GL for that!. dear rawbird can you see my film and give me a comment. Thank you!

    Interesting interview...

    Someone mentioned earler that he just not that interesting... I'm on the fence there, but the interview was well done. I think you did what you could, and for that you get my GL.

    The idea of equal rights for all is a good discussion, and while, as James says, the gay community has come a long way...(boy going to prom in drag) there is still a long way to go before us heteros will accept, not tolerate. Tolerance is code for I hate you but I can't say it any more, so I'll shut up and hate you in private.

    Until we accept, James needs to keep writing books... and he should.

    This is a fascinating person but for some reason my mind began to wander. It may be because the interview holds on the same shot for so long. Is there other supporting photos or footage that you can cut back and forth from to help break that up a bit as he talks? Once we know where the conversation is happening we don't need to see it anymore except to wrap it up or to show specific bits that work better on camera.

    This was extremely engaging and offbeat like all of the pods that I have seen from you. Very funny at times as well! Sharp editing.
    If you have a chance, I'd love some feedback from you on my upload "Victory Against McDonalds."
    GL!

    G/L!! James St. James is fabulous. My best friend who I have known since high school is gay. He refers to me as his trophy fag hag. He had it rough in school, kids threw rocks at him, he got into alot of fights. But he was no queen, he's more the dark angry gay. I think that had alot to do with it. I miss going to Rainbow mountain bar and club with him. I moved far away 2yrs ago, but we still chat regularly.

    Bammmm! Just like that, 25 more points. Excellent work. I greenlit your video, Sarah and Adam. Please do me a favor; I could really use your review... Please, take a chance at my <a href="http://www.current.tv/watch/60193451">New Hip Hop Art</a> pod. It could use your personal videography advice and approval for TV.

    Don't sleep, now... Thank you! 8')
