The Most Powerful Hairspray Known To Man.

I don't know the last time I was just an out-and-out shill for something, but I was pretty excited to pick up a container of Goth Juice last weekend, the new hairstyling product from Lush. It's purple, it's powerful, and it's inspired (along with a companion product called King of the Mods) by the fantastic UK comedy, The Mighty Boosh. Each tub claims it was "Made from the Tears of Robert Smith."
Pete: Robert Smith is *still* not a member of the Smiths. Oddly, none of them were called Smith, which makes them the opposite of the Ramones, who were all named Ramone.

We're Old Gregg!

For anyone looking for an Old Gregg costume, here's what I used:
1. Swamp Queen wigs (dreaded up and all funkay)
2. American Apparel lame leggings (hologram gold looks best)
3. Petticoats
4. White Boots
5. White ties
6. Black button-down shirts
7. Silver jackets with fishing lures sewn on
8. Black, red, and green makeup (sounds Christmasy, but isn't)
9. LCD lights attached to jock straps
10. White Gloves, and I made green fishy hands
11. And of course, Bailey's!

The Challenge of Old Gregg!

It has come to my attention, through the science of hit tracking, that someone else on the interweb is also planning on dressing as The Mighty Boosh's Old Gregg for Halloween. I'm hoping that you'll stumble across this page again and will pick up my dropped white-glove gauntlet: Please send me pictures of your completed Old Gregg costume, and if it beats mine, I'll send you a bottle of (what else?) Bailey's Irish Cream. I'd love to have a gallery of Greggs. If you're looking for pre-Halloween inspiration, here's a very cute (American!) girl Old Gregg.

To the uninitiated, Old Gregg is a cross-dressing mer-man hermaphrodite. He's a Rick James with a slightly fishy odor. He's got a downstairs mix-up and an itch for disco. He's Old Gregg!

Postscript: OK, you scaly man-fish, you modern gentlemen, I can see you cyber- surfing my waters. 20 people looking for information on Old Gregg costumes today alone! Don't be shy, add a comment and tell me about your Gregg plans, motherlicker!

I'm gonna hurt you.

I like you.

Ok, now I'm getting 60 hits a day based on looking for Old Gregg costumes. They have been sold to people who I hope will enjoy them! Here is my collection of Old Greggs from ALL OVER THE INTERNET- enjoy!

The Boosh is Loose!

I know that the American fanbase for the Mighty Boosh show is roughly eight people, but I'm excited to pass on that they have a fantastic new website, and that their show will be back on the air in the Yew Kay in Fall. Click the pic to see their super site!
It's almost on-topic to display the canvas Chucks that I recently Boosh-ified with Noel Fielding pictures:

I'm Old Gregg!

This is a clip from an excellent show from across the pond, the Mighty Boosh. It won't help much to explain the background, but in this episode, there's a 70/30 man/fish named Old Gregg in love with a jazz maverick called Howard. Old Gregg happens to keep the Funk in his cave with him, which is why he sounds and looks a bit like a soggy Rick James. Anyway...enjoy.
