All The People You Love.
CURTIS ELLER
Curtis Eller is New York City's angriest yodeling banjo player. He started his show business career at the age of seven as a juggler and acrobat, but has since turned to the banjo because that's where the money is. Mr. Eller and his band "The American Circus" have performed at funerals, horse races, burlesque shows and vaudeville revues. His biggest musical influences are Buster Keaton, Elvis Presley and Abraham Lincoln. Yodeling and some strong language can be expected. Check out:

Married to his college sweetheart, James Braly has spent the last twenty years researching life in a marital institution. He's performed his autobiographic stories on NPR and Marketplace, and at The Whitney Museum, Long Wharf Theatre, and The Moth, where he is the only two-time winner of the audience-judged GrandSLAM and a featured performer on The Moth National Story Tour. His autobiographic monologue Life In A Marital Institution is currently in development with Hal Brooks, director of 2005 Pulitzer Prize finalist Thom Pain (Based On Nothing). Algonquin will publish the book version in 2008. Check out:

Daniel Cartier is a true music industry survivor; a prolific songwriter who continues to add to his extensive body of work in spite of a turbulent past. In November 2006 Daniel released "You and Me Are We". Eleven songs which document his former drug addiction, his eventual stay in a psychiatric ward and drug rehab and his gradual re-emergence into a happy state of mental health. When he's not doing music or art, Daniel uses his boundless energy to raise money for New York animal shelters, AIDS research, and drug awareness. Check out:

Or perhaps you might want to stroll across the street to Gap where they'd like to dress you up in The Boyfriend Jean. Perfect! Now your boyfriend gets to close his eyes and pretend that he's actually making out with a dude. What's a girl to wear?!?
CURTIS ELLER
Gungrease features the talents of Katherine Bryant, Shayna Ferm, Alex Goldberg, and Chris O'Connor, (absent this time out are Jaime Hayes and Dan Zalevsky). 
Recently, I was invited to perform at Where Have You Been? Conversations on Travel hosted by the pretty darn adorable Jeff Stark at Blue Stockings Bookstore. Anarchists, Irina and Jamie Ratt of the Love and Resistance Collective talked about interviewing fellow anarchists in Mexico and South America. I told "The Cake Story". Tom Guiney spoke about digging up bombs in Laos! If you enjoy stories and travel, you should totally stop by and check it out!
