Fenix Rising Again

Posted by on July 22 at 5:52 AM

Some jackass pulled the fire alarm so I’m up (how are you dealing with this heatwave? I am dying and it’s only dawn!) …and listening to a voicemail from late last night saying the Fenix is reopening in the space that currently houses the Premier on First Avenue South.

I wonder why? Why move?

Due to dumb luck and connected friends I've had the opportunity to meet several of the iconic ladies of our times, including Siouxsie Sioux (crazy, yes, but down to earth), Diamanda Galas (intense, but funny and sweet), and (not to put her in the same category) Dita Von Teese. Dita was snotty and condescending, very much the Grand Lady. I wanted to say, "Excuse me, aren't you the stripper who made good when you started dating Marilyn Manson?" Instead, I took the high road and was impeccably polite. Anyway, if you do meet her on the street, grab her ass or something. She needs to lighten up.
