the holidays are always a tricky thing - the pressure of getting people presents they actually like and don’t return the next day, family gatherings and the post holiday let down. (raise your hand if you get depressed on january 2nd?)
but there is one good thing about the holidays…and that’s the parties.
who doesn’t love a good party? especially this time of year. lots of lights, party dresses and time off from school/work.
“edie loved parties. edie adored parties…it was a very comfortable party. people dancing. the moon rose out of the ocean, spiraling up in the dark. it was the final touch - a nice moon rippling on the ocean and turning everything silver. edie was very sensitive to enchantments. she broke away from the form completely and was doing these totally free dance movements. we looked out from under the marquee, and there she was on this deserted lawn. and she was cartwheeling across it, cartwheeling. i remember the music dying down as the focus of attention shifted to her out there.” - john anthony walker.
warhol called her dance moves “egyptian, with her head tilting in just the right, beautiful way. people called it the sedgwick, and edie was the only one who did it - everybody else was doing the jerk.”
so wear your party shoes.
dance your booties off.
and have fun.
happy holidays.

Everytime I think of Edie dancing in the moon light at that party I think of The Car’s song “My Best Friend’s Girl”….where the say “Here she comes again, when she dancing beneath the stary sky”…..matter fact I have it on myspace!!!
Happy Holidays!!!!

I think Edie was her own unique person, she had her own style, individuality that no-one could match.
Where can I find scans of Girl On Fire? I’m dying to see them.
I hate the holidays.
