   John Shirley Interview   
   27 Jan 04 15:59:19   
   
   From: kcalder@blueyonder.co.uk   
      
    From a John Shirley interview on Suicide Girls.   
      
   That uh, someone told me about.   
      
   DRE: Some of the authors you came up with were impressed by you. When   
   you first met William Gibson you had no shirt on.   
      
   JS: He and I were good friends. He slept on my couch in Portland before   
   he was famous. I remember he complained the next day that he was really   
   cold because we were these poor freaky people who had no heat during   
   winter. We also kept him up all night having sex in the rooms above and   
   around him. People were running from room to room shrieking and I never   
   found out why. He came to my punk shows too. He once wrote a poem about   
   my work as a lead singer. He was a good friend and we collaborated on   
   some stories. We also collaborated on film scripts. We wrote a script of   
   the New Rose Hotel which Ed Pressman bought but the director [Abel   
   Ferrara] wrote his own script which I heard turned out lame. Those   
   things we have written have languished.
