Well, back in 1997, I started The Mark After Dark Cable Show, and during this time, I would go to these shows every single weekend. My goal was to try and film as much content as possible. One evening, while I was at this one particular club, I met this Photographer named Matt O'Hallaron and we, eventually, became quick friends… Back then, it was much easier to joke around with everyone, maybe because I didn't give a shit. On this particular day, while Matt and I were talking, I told him I would love to write for The NY Waste. I had a couple of issues of where his pictures were posted. He says, "You have to meet Lucky Lawler". So, one day, Matt introduced her to me, but she already knew about my cable show. This was months after I had started the program, and by that time my show was getting a really nice buzz. Lucky was so cool, she told me that if I wanted to write something for The NY Waste, I was welcome to. Now, I admit I don’t consider myself much of a Writer, but, man, did I have opinions about the "New York Rock Music Scene". My articles, at times, got a bit contentious, which isn't something that The NY Waste represented. You could say, I became the first controversial Writer for The NY Waste. Honestly, Lucky is a big part of my journey, and I will always stress that to anyone who asks. She helped build the first few websites for the show, and I will always  love her, not only for all the work she's done for me, but that she continues to be a great friend. Unfortunately, I lost touch with Matt, and always wondered what happened to him. I mean, I've got so many stories about this guy. He was basically my connection to The NY Waste. Matt O'Hallaron, Lucky Lawler, and Glen Wernig were a big part of my journey into this industry, and allowed me the opportunity to hone my skills as a Writer, at The NY Waste.  They're aren't many of us left, and when I look at my City now, I'm so glad I have those memories. That's my story on how I met Lucky. If you'd like to read some of my articles, please click the "Follow Me" button, below.
