tripledouble has tales of pulling double Donna Mcghees back in the day. who knows what he's hoarding now - he's pretty much operating on the

nothing real big but the #s
At the flea markets, Steve sets up with DVDs, books (I think), and records. He's SUPER anal about making buyers wait until every box is set up and records face in the right direction. Even when you're just trying to flip through a couple boxes propped up on the trunk of his car in dead winter.
I'd say he always has stuff worth looking at, sometimes raer, other times not so much--he gets what he gets. I thought I heard something about a warehouse he keeps shit in, but I get the sense that he brings out his most recent comeups if you catch him out selling somewhere. And he's pretty fair with pricing, so that's a big plus.
Tis true.
I went to a place he had (has?) on Cherry St a few years ago. Lots of unsorted records/porn in there along with takeout boxes and a sleeping bag. He regaled me with readings from one of his journals as I browsed.
Steve (or Nick known by some) is a world class lowlife douchebag IMHO. It sickens me now that I am removed from the "digging" scene that I once sweated this dude for his records. He would set up around 1 PM when he was allowed to sell at Lancaster. By then... I had been there since 7 AM and was tired and wanted to go home.. but there was a prospect of some hot as fuck find in his "crates" or shall I say empty 2 liter soda boxes. We'd all stand there patiently waiting for him to set up. Shit would be ready to go and dickhead would casually sit there and comb his hair while we drooled over the prospect of what could be found.
I have had many altercations with him in the field too. He hoards crates and buys everything of value. We have tugged at the same record many times with him having a bitch fit. and yes he smells and carries wads of cash. I hope he goes to jail for stealing that crippled guys jazz collection.

YES.
1. ???Let me listen to it on your portable, then I can formulate a price.???
2. ???I was a ballerina, in the Jazz sense, in my past life???.
3. ???By selling him records, essentially you???re making him a dealer???.
4. After someone just mentioned that there was a fresh turd next to a van (which turned out to be Steve???s), he said: ???Frickin' Hippies.???
5. ???I???ve just pulled some greeeeat stuff out of my warehouse.???
I can hear #5 in my head like he's standing right next to me. Haunting.
there are so many more that i will be revisiting another top five stinkie steve quotes in the near future. he's really out of his mind. i'm kind of bummed out that i missed his sparring match with eggbeard. it's not like it won't happen again with anyone else. he has retired his partner that wears the jaegermeister hat, and is now seen with an older, smaller guy who helps him with his records/ porn. the last few times i've been to the market he hasn't set up, and was thumbing through a copy of "gent".
do it, t***.... stop holding out

time for some
yoga on the floor of Long In The Tooth anyone?
a quick favorite...
thikneck walked up to his crates one mothers day and says "happy mothers day, steve"
steve: "happy mothers day? happy mothers day? happy mother fuckers day! lets happily fuck our mothers today." in a gleeful tone.
like triple d said,he is smart and fully aware but somehow it's twisted and the intellect only serves to shade him as more diabolical and pedaphillic.
the disturbing traits are the [too]closeness the bright blue eyes,the small body,the kung fu slippers,shabby clothing and the aura of chaos and unrest that he puts off.
I have seen hm in action at several record shows as well as dealing with the buyer at A-1.
Each episode was memorable and unique in its own comical ass buffonery.At A-1 I actually hung out just to watch dude annoy customers,run in and out of the store 90 times and basically just trip the fuck out...hard.
He is animated like a cartoon rabbit.Clawing and scamming fragments of stranger's broken dreams as he represents the ultimate embodiment of a broken dream himself.
I have never been close enough to this kook to smell him,but he really does radiate a huge amount of chaotic energy.I reckon he is similar to a meth freak or a crack head who has been at it for awhile and got they game on auto pilot.
I guess that was during the brief period where Shel wasn't hanging with Hef on Playboy After Dark.
Doing Yoga at the Mart.....
He looks like he's about to light a fart.
also, my wife was waiting for me while i was digging and she had her arm in a sling. steve says "what disease do you have?" my wife replies:" i fell off a ladder". steve says, "see, you are at dis- ease", so you are diseased. people don't know that."
his expression is priceless: "This one's for YOU, buddy!"
