Neither more nor less

We grabbed one blurred shot of Johnny as we walked in the door of Mars Bar Saturday night .Johnny had just started his performance and had a hammer and nails in one hand and a nail hammered up his nose .A crowd quickly surrounded Johnny so we could get no more pictures of him performing  . Later though , for a brief few seconds , the crowd parted affording a view of a grimacing woman in blue using 2 fingers to pull a nail out of Johnny's penis ... and then quickly toss it to the counter beneath the green cold-cathode light .

A while later we asked Johnny about his arrest the day before in Tompkins Square Park . Johnny said that he had spent 30 hours in the system and  after his release came to Mars Bar . He said that he had been charged with public urination . Johnny said that he knew that it was wrong to do what he did , he should not have pissed on that tree in Tompkins Square Park Friday afternoon.
