BUTT Magazine #18
Winter 2006, seventy-six pages on pink paper, running two of the magazine's recurring formats and a portfolio of body hair.
Gert Jonkers interviews the porn director Michael Lucas and conducts the biennial Casey Spooner interview, photographed by Marcelo Krasilcic. Jop van Bennekom interviews Jason Whipple in Vermont, photographed by Miguel Villalobos. Ed Droste, interviewed himself earlier in the year, talks to Owen Pallett, photographed by Neal Franc. Adam Baran interviews John Cameron Mitchell, photographed by Wolfgang Tillmans, and Alex Needham interviews the punk historian Jon Savage, photographed by Jason Evans. Cesar Padilla writes on Rob Halford of Judas Priest, Robert Greene contributes "You Are So Hairy" and Matthias Vriens "The Couple."
Readers who first appeared in BUTTSTUFF and then returned as interviewers is a pattern this issue makes visible twice over.
