In the 90s I did a lot of my poetry and some of my inspiration’s poetry/song lyrics, on nyc streets, subways and parks. So I bought, painted a white cross on it, and used this battery powered mini-amp for many hours of spontaneous poetry performances for everyday people and whoever was interested.

I used this mini-amp with my durable schure 58 mic when I recited my poetry of comfort for the families of the missing September 11th Firefighter, Police, and Office Worker Heroes on Sunday, September 16th 2001 in Union Square, Manhattan.

This photo was also used on my chapbook with cd second ep release “billy lamont with the peculiar people” in 2003/2004. Sharing a little of my life so far with you. 🙂

BILLY LAMONT with his “bullhorn of truth” at the Save Our Cinema Protest on last Saturday! Lamont said “this bullhorn of justice sheds light on darkness” as spitting some of his spontaneous verse into the bullhorn as leading some chants at the Save Our Cinema Protest!

The Save Our Cinema Protest is to reinstate Cinema Arts Centre founding family member DYLAN SKOLNIK to the Board after being senselessly ousted from the Board, and his reputation being inhumanely smeared recently.

I was honored to join the 300 wonderful film/art lover everyday “We The People” community in the – SAVE OUR CINEMA Protest – in support of DYLAN SKOLNIK a few hours ago! CIMEMA ARTS CENTRE & it’s Founding Members the late VIC SKOLNIK and CHARLOTTE SKY, along with their son DYLAN SKOLNIK, have been & are a huge part of independent film and Long Island Art Community for many, many years & it is appalling to me that CINEMA ART CENTRE’s new Board have the poison gall to oust DYLAN inhumanely from the Board of His Families’ & His Legacy… & while cruelly smearing his great character with unjust accusations!!! I was honored to spontaneously lead Protest chants of “Save Our Cinema” in my bullhorn as sometimes reciting improv new poetry flowing from me, along with lines from protestor’s witty protest signs, as people driving by on Park Ave were honking their horns in a chorus of support for the protest!!! Everyday good people using their voices soulfully for what matters to their Long Island home community in Huntington, NY today (saturday) was beautiful to behold!!! ❤ ❤ ❤

CINEMA ARTS CENTRE: One of Long Island’s most important and revered cultural institutions is in danger.

We (members, friends and cinema supporters) are outraged that the Cinema Arts Centre Board is making reckless decisions that have thrown this treasured arts organization into chaos.

The decision to fire long time CAC Co-Director Dylan Skolnick without cause, then smear his reputation with vague innuendo, is unforgivable. Dylan has dedicated his entire adult life to the CAC and has played the prime role in growing it into an internationally respected cinema.

THANK YOU To JAMES PAUL WAGNER for organizing this wonderful annual event that I have attended & enjoyed for approx the last 10 Years, & for graciously having me recite at the beginnings of the event this year because I could only be there for a short time this year because I needed to get to work for my responsibilities shortly after.

* Work was also very exciting because our work team was broadcasting the MTV VIDEO MUSIc AWARDS 2026 Live this year with CBS, as well as MTV!!! It was an honor to observe & be a small part on this awesome team that played a role broadcasting this amazing live show & re-airs, throughout the night, along with many other major television networks. I was REALLY LOOKING FORWARD To The MTV VMA’s that was honoring iconic performers and music videomaker icons like NIRVANA, TAYLOR SWIFT, & MADONNA amongst many other fabulous talents!!! A very joyful & intereting day & night to be a part of this all! 🙂! Well done everyone! ❤!
