I did the makeup for the cover of INTERVIEW, Harry King did the hair Barry Mckinley, photographer. Love Debbie Harry! And love Andy and Victor Hugo. Victor left me two paintings of fried eggs. Don't know what happened to them, sorry Victor, nice guy.
did andy die of aids. sheesh the gay men were dropping left and right in the eighties. that disease is straight out of the bath houses in san francisco. very sad.
The silence of the clip is golden. No one can stand silence these days, we all have to clubbed over the head with someone else's idea of good noise. My imagination can fill the void if nessesary.
I was working for Fiorucci as a photographer then. It was my first or second job. I'm talking to Joey Arias at 5:34 , but I'm a little more clear at 5:285:57-6:00 and 8:17.
Later, Paulette Goddard and Brook Shields were both there for a while, and Andy was signing the bellies of some pregnant women.
WOW...HI. I WORKED AT FIORUCCI THEN, AS WELL. I WAS THE UNDERCOVER SECURITY OFFICER. I WORKED WITH MY BUDDY JOEY AND WITH KATHERINE WALLACH. WHAT FABULOUS TIMES WE HAD UP IN THERE. REMEMBER THE CAPPUCINO MACHINE UP FRONT?...LOL...I MET SOOOO MANY CELEBS THERE & GOT PLENTY OF AUTOGRAPHS, AS WELL. AND THE PARTIES WERE TO DIE FOR :)
i think this isn't 77 but june 79 because the interview they are signing is the june 79 issue with debbie harry on the cover and truman had a facelift after 77. the video is great though
I love the way they function, the awarness of each movement and reaction, the silence of the hungry mob, signatures at a price, you want it croud, off course.... I too want it all!!!...jajajaj
Mr. Perich, Thanks for sharing the tremendous footagw! However, you've got the date wrong: they're signing the Debbie Harry cover of "Interview", which came out in June, 1979.
My first thought was-Victor Hugo was with Andy Warhol and Truman Capote at Fiorucci's? Different Victor apparently. @2:50 cocaine is a helluva drug.

Oh, if only it had sound; I'd love to hear the conversations and reactions!
What was the deal there, could anyone be a mannequin in the window? Like could a customer walk up & do their thing, or did you have to work there?

If you want the exact date, Andy Warhol mentions it in the Andy Warhol Diaries book, Friday, September 22, 1978

The DuPont twins! Victor Hugo (the gay, not the French author)! My the 70's was fun.
