"AMUSE ME PLEASE"

AMUSE ME, PLEASE.
> Artist, photographer, musician and blasphemer, Brian
> Lackey, has just
> released the second album of his alter ego, AMUSE ME
> MR. What terrible
> atrocity will he think of next?
>
> "I just got out of rehab", says Lackey, sipping a
> faux cocktail whilst
> reclining in an easy chair at Bryant Park during New
> York Fashion Week.
> "I checked in by my own accord, I had to get out of
> New York. Let’s
> just say girls and knives don’t mix well”. Five
> years of living in New
> York City had taken its toll on this half Steven
> Tyler, half Enrique
> Ingelsias look-a-like. “He’s rugged”, says one
> female admirer. “You can
> be my hero baby”, says another. “
> This self-confessed 'hick’ from a town called
> Hickory (no lie) in
> North Carolina has just released his second album of
> electro-prog
> freak-a-thons ‘This Album Goes Boom’. At first
> sounding like Gibby
> Haynes exercising his right to mash up Black Sabbath
> songs in the
> Butthole Surfers, then, like Trent Reznor trying to
> make a come back.
> A student of Ansel Adams' assistant, Lackey has
> spent over half his
> life taking photographs and studying the tonality of
> the world - often
> to be seen teetering precariously on the edge of a
> tall building, 54
> Horseman camera at the ready, awaiting the perfect
> photo op. When
> reality blurs with theory and he wonders exactly
> which zone he is
> occupying, he puts down the camera and goes off on a
> month long tour
> with any given bunch of rock 'n' rollers, bashing
> out percussion on the
> drums.
> Lackey’s first book, In The One Time City, is
> due this fall. It
> showcases the many different guises and projects of
> its author. From
> his darkly sexual fashion and beauty photography, to
> bizarre one man
> photo essays, featuring the artist himself, naked
> and running amok in a
> derelict building - private parts Duck-taped from
> view. It is a
> hardcopy compendium of the last ten years of his
> strange life.
> Having recently completed his first music video,
> Lackey is heading
> to Los Angeles to become a director. Whatever next?
