Sleeping With Mr. Butch (Part 1)

Shot in December 2006, this documentary sought to discover where Mr. Butch (self-proclaimed king of Allston and king of men) sleeps -- and who he sleeps with.

RIP Butch

My only regret is not going out and filming with him more. We were actually supposed to make a movie about him purchasing the Vespa that delivered him from this Earth.

My friend and I hung out with him in the mid 90's. We had a place in Cleveland Circle and we used to take the train back and hang out with him and smoke and drink beers while he wrote letters to the magistrate. I miss this dude. At the time he was in Kenmore and he was always interesting. Good person. Miss you Harold.

I once saw some asshole jocks call him a nigger when I was talking to him. All he did was yell back , " That's Mr. nigger to you ! " then he just blew it off. What a great guy.

Man, you know one time I talked to him and he said everything was going to be alright and you know what he was right. R.I.P Mr. Butch.

Met him at Father's many times in the eighties. He once asked me to ask him his name so l did and he said "Stu, last name Pid." l asked him to ask me my name so he did and l said "Heywood, last name Jablomi." He literally grabbed his chair as he fell to the floor laughing ...R.I.P. You were one cool crazy old dude Mr. Butch

I remember that chick from Fly Rabbit...that was a cool store in my old neighborhood. Once I walked past Mr. Butch in front of Blanchards with a GIANT wooden fork and spoon that I bought at a yard sale. He looked at me and said "Damn that's gotta be the biggest fucking salad I've ever seen." Me and my friends hung out with him in Kenmore Sq. a lot too, bought him beer-loved him. I moved away then came back a few years later, when I saw Butch he said "Where have you been?" He was alright, man.

I didn't know him... just saw some of his videos... but I got to tell you that I actually miss him now that I know he's gone from this earth. R.I.P. Buddy.
