Yes dear friends, you are not imagining things and have successfully chanced upon another installment from my deep exploration into the 2017 NY Comic Con. As I am on the third part of the Day Two observations, I will leave it at that but encourage you to click on THIS LINK if you’ve missed any of the chapters that have come before this one.

Some of the photographers bring all this heavy duty gear with them while I’m only brandishing my trusty Samsung point and shoot and my Galaxy Note 4 phone.

I was one of the Big Apple’s media scribes in attendance for the show taking place at the Blender Theater at Gramercy for the NSFW folks in The Genitorturers and that concert was discussed in full on THIS LINK so check that out when you have a moment. During the show I struck up conversation with some lovely ladies who ended up being burlesque performers and pin-up models and with that being the case some impromptu downstairs lobby photo shoots came to pass.

Although I remember reviewing a CD or DVD release or two in the past from the Genitorturers, I had to admit that they were never really my thing and I was more focused on the blazing Power Metal or the crushing sounds brought on by those dark Norwegian powers that be. Of course there was a certain amount of curiosity about how they did their stuff in the live sense and fortunately when the group came through town to promote their latest album “Blackheart Revolution” I felt it would be the perfect chance to learn. The show would be at The Gramercy Theatre and have Nassau Chainsaw and Sex Slaves as the openers. I wanted to see what everyone was like tonight so I made sure to arrive nice and early. Here is how the show went down for those who are wondering. Continue reading Genitorturers @ Blender Theater at Gramercy (11/17/2009)→
