Christina was in a pretty good mood the night Nelson Sullivan visited her in April 1989. Nelson engaged in a thoughtful conversation there with Christina's friend Linda. It was all about the reality of video and Nelson's ideas about that. It is presented in its entirety on the 5 Ninth Avenue Project Channel and is entitled "Nelson Sullivan discusses the reality of Video in the Chelsea Hotel"

This lifestyle by "Christina" is actually disgusting. Rather than have somebody in the 80s acting like somebody during the current time period, I would rather have somebody in this time period acting like people did in the 50s in terms of cultural values

P.S. I do feel bad that Nelson passed away. He maintained a healthy weight and was extremely unlucky. I just don't believe he is as revolutionary in a good way as most others since modern society is collapsing very quickly and we instead need our mentality to be that of 1955. Yes, I mean the entire mindset of that time period especially in the South

Sad to think that Christina and Nelson did not make it to the end of that year, one probably overdosed from all the pain and suffering (Christina) and Nelson just happened to have a weak heart... You can see how exhausted he was just by walking 2 flights of stairs. Putting all that into perspective and the two sitting along with their friend talking about people's pain and how hopefully the world in general would be more aware about it in the future is just nostalgic and remarkably sad.

About 10 years after Sid & Nancy occupied a room at the Chelsea and Nancy ultimately died in room 100. The B-52’s -Mesopotamia album in the background of Christina’s room. Nelson constantly yawns….shortness of breath, air hunger. I wish he had seen a cardiologist.
