Free Man Show at Chelsea Blue

Jordan Galloway -

Nothing’s shocking in New York anymore, but a live male erotic massage demonstration is the kind of window display bound to catch someone’s attention. Or at least that’s what the visionaries behind Manworks.com hope will happen tonight when they take over the window space at The Blue Chelsea, transform it into a masseuse station and display their erotic massage techniques on willing volunteers.

Beat the Mob: a Scavenger Hunt, a Leprechaun and Prizes

Mike Spence -

Looking for a free game to play here in New York that requires almost no commitment while at the same time offers fabulous prizes? Your prayers have been answered by a man dressed as a leprechaun. Once a week Bob Freedman, the man behind the game “Beat the Mob” will find a hiding spot and Tweet clues about his whereabouts, waiting for the first person to come find him and win a prize. It’s too soon to say that this new game is sweeping the city, but it is certainly creating a dedicated fan base. I spoke to Mr. Freedman, half of the duo who came up with the game only a few months ago.

Editors -

In the paper today, Kurt Gottschalk uncovers what's happening at this year's Performa.

Check out the performance after the jump.

Dazzle Dancer Cary Curran Sounds Off Over Facebook Profile Deletion

Matt Connolly -

As a member of the famed downtown dance troupe The Dazzle Dancers, Cary Curran (aka Cherry Dazzle) spends much of her time celebrating the semi-nude human form in all its gyrating glory. It's not shocking, then, that Curran decided to make a photo of her pregnant body (decked out in little more than gold pasties, a thong bikini bottom and a liberal sprinkling of gold body glitter) her Facebook profile picture. The surprise came when Facebook shut down her account as a result.

Fratbars and Socialites and The CW! Oh My!

Mike Spence -

Tinsley Mortimer, a socialite—which, according to Webster’s is a woman who marries rich and makes handbags—was spotted at new sports bar The Doghouse Saloon, which is taking over the Annex's old space (just when we thought the block couldn't get shittier). Mortimer was filming her new CW reality show in the Lower East Side bar, both of which will probably be enjoyed by enough out-of-towners to limp along for a few years.

Maybe It's The Sonar?

Editors -
There has been plenty of animal sex happening lately; just this weekend we saw countless bodies wriggling out of their creature costumes to better grope. Now BuzzFeed passes along the news that bats love blowjobs. That isn't one we spotted happening in our travels on Halloween night, but the science sounds convincing...

The Merce Cunningham Memorial

Susan Reiter -
Leave it to Merce Cunningham to make a cavernous drill hall in the Park Avenue Armory feel almost like a cathedral. About 2,500 came to worship, so to speak, and pay homage, on Wednesday as the Cunningham Dance Foundation offered an expansive, absolutely appropriate and comprehensive memorial to this unique and groundbreaking choreographer, who died at the age of 90 on July 26.

Vamp It Up

Mike Spence -
Otto Penzler’s new The Vampire Archives is a 900-page tome overflowing with stories of blood-sucking horror. The collection of tales is expansive, ranging from pre-Dracula 19th century legends to vampire stories told by modern masters. With teen-friendly vampires popping up everywhere these days, this collection of seriously terrifying stories, including contributions from Stephen King, Edgar Allen Poe and H.P. Lovecraft, comes along just in time.  New York Press caught up with Mr. Penzler to ask him a few questions about the walking dead.
