"Totally For Teens" Screening Party Tonight

















TV Carnage's Derrick Beckles just finished making a best selling TV show titled “Totally for Teens" for Adult Swim. It features the multi-talented multi-culturalist, Mr. Beckles forcing teens to not only look into the future but hate on themselves and eat cream filled pickles. Don't fret parents he's a role model of the first order. Tonight's screening of the Pilot Episode at Monster Island will undoubtedly be a star-studded gala, wickedly funny and overrun with both children and the usual Type A Williamsburg B-listers. Go to our sister's site SBTVC for more dazzle and specifics of how you can attend!

Be there or be squared.

Gentrified Stake with Danny Hoch (& Derrick Beckles)

The rapid fire gentrification of the Brooklyn over the last 20 years has been an incredibly wild ride and Danny Hoch's one man show Taking Over nails the nuance and the specific realities. With his coterie of diverse and crazed Williamsburg characters he pokes sharp and incisive fun at an interesting turn in New York City history. It's a have to laugh or you'd be crying story. Everyone's affected by the maniacal development and while pretty young girls have ruined few neighborhoods, old-timers are both pissed and scared by the colonialism.

Unless you have lived through the endless tidal waves in Williamsburg and Greenpoint, it's hard to imagine any negatives associated with the sprucing up a shithole. And no one denies it was a shithole. Our own stumbling through the hood's mean streets of Hassidic gangs and wild dogs in the 90's led to the making of Toxic Brooklyn. Watch us here and go see Danny in the Theater cuz it's good to get out of the neighborhood for bit and clear your head. At least of the fumes.

Biting the Hand That Blings

The last person you want to click into an internet
war of wits with is Gavin McInnes. Trust me on this.
So why would an obscure Austin, Texas blogger
known as daz76 muck aboot with the wildcats of
Street Carnage? No clue. But it seems to me only a
pro lion tamer would dare throw a stick in such a cage.
Or perhaps a poet.



Dear Street Carnage Why Am I Banned?

FLASHBACK to an archived profile of Big Pinky,
the loveable ebony to Mr McInnes' ivory.
