Vincent D'Onofrio Fan Club

Eliza, Diane, Ann and I met up in London today for the third annual Vixenfest. We might have stopped talking in order to eat, but I don't remember it. We had a text from Tess (Hi, Tess!) and talked about all things Vincent for hours.

Walking down Oxford Street, London's main shopping thoroughfare, we looked in the menswear shops trying to find things we'd like to dress him in. And undress him from...

We rummaged through the DVDs in the HMV shop, and were surprised to find quite a few, though it was a shock to find that LOCI was not in the Best of US TV rack, but in the basement among the also-rans (like CSI?!) I bought Chelsea Walls, and congratulated the salesman on having so many V-titles in stock. Though I had to admit that we all had them all already in several different formats, so we wouldn't be buying any.

Does anyone think we're weird to look for his films when we alreay have them in video, US and European formats?

Oh, and by the way, they had Clare Dolan, which Amazon cancelled orders for because its issue had been cancelled. Wrong!

Eliza, me and Diane

  3. Vixenfest Chicks! You are such lovely ladies, I do wish I were visiting with you, too. And, I look for VDO flicks at stores, just to be sure they're there for Vixens in need. And I never seem to be able to walk by the men's shoe dept of Macy's and such without looking for a size 13 shoe!!! I pick the shoe up and pretend I'm considering it for my hubs. Nuts, dontcha think??

  5. Judging from the smiles on your glowing faces, it looks like you all had a wonderful time! I would love to visit London one day ... when I can afford it. And personally, I think there should be a Vincent D'Onofrio section in EVERY video store!
