Going With Sylvia to a Jewelry Sale in 1988

It's almost Christmas and Nelson Sullivan is going with Sylvia Miles to a sales event at a jewelry designer's studio/store. Afterwards Nelson and Sylvia return to 5 Ninth Avenue where Lady Bunny is cooking a healthy meal for Lahoma and Larry Tee. Video by Nelson Sullivan

I swear Nelson does more in a day than I do in a year

[@bartolomeestebanmurillo4459]

Sylvia is still alive today 93 years young.

[@kikilein1972]

Rembrandt van Rijn she is really 93???

[@spicymcwood679]

Rembrandt van Rijn more like 63 bro

[@spicymcwood679]

Jason Reese sure bud

[@SwedishEmpire1700]

So, was she like 63 back then?

[@scottmartin8888]

Patty Young she was 63 in this video lol

[@aviratica6370]

I see a Nelson Sullivan video uploaded, I stop what I'm doing and watch.

[@lemasterpainting2395]

Who was nelson?

[@anon9145]

Sullivan

[@anon9145]

ok

[@JoeyVallone]

I discovered these yesterday and now I’m obsessed with Nelson. I was devastated when I found out about his heart attack… he was before his time.

[@Marmotone]

Joey Vallone These vlogs are like gold

[@behindthesea7143]

And she just passed a week ago. RIP to both legends. ❤️

[@sisterdiscordia]

i just love this its like living in someone else's life.

[@jamieleeharrison]

Thank you to whoever is carrying on Nelson’s legacy through this channel. I’ve been watching periodically for over a year now, I go through spurts of binging these videos. I’m going to New York City for the first time in a few weeks, and I am going to visit his home! I love how they have carried on his spirit and turned it into an art gallery, and dedicating the 3rd floor to his life and work!

[@verynice126]

I think he passed away too. Nelson friend Dick. He was in the one when they go grocery shopping. And more

[@WallStreetNewscast]

Can never get enough of these

[@starmoon1590]

WallStreetNewscast - I want to live in them.

[@JaneDoe-rj4jn]

God bless Nelson for being able to handle Sylvia. I still can’t get his trip with her to Woodstock out of my head. He’s got the temperament of a saint 😂

[@JoeyVallone]

I want to exist in that time and that place. So happy I can relive through the eyes of Nelson.

[@bruhlickd]

Walf of the people of these vídeos died of aids, overdose or suicide. Are u sure u Want that time?

[@summerbreeze4630]

The Campbell soup and Brillo bracelet 🤩 maaan! Can you imagine having that vintage piece today!

[@Consistentlycrazy]

I totally need that bracelet 😍

[@shawndamccormick278]

"All of us stealing some great stuff today." That was pretty funny. I just love his little comments.

[@NautiParrot]

shawnda mccormick yeah.... he always had some great one liners

[@kengeorgejones6855]

I loved when he thanked John (always cute) for fixing him his coffee...just the right hint of sarcasm.

[@Valhalla.Studio]

Vlogging 20 years before it became a thing! Loving the vibe of the 80's, I miss it!

[@erichimarios1338]

"How's your magazine, I keep seeing it" "Fine, i'm starting it up again"

[@Charlesbjtown]

😂😭💀

[@Valhalla.Studio]

Imagine how much more footage he would have filmed if he was alive today :(

[@starmoon1590]

THANK YOU to whomever uploads these. Priceless.

[@moccalou]

God, imagine actually living in 1988. Turning on a radio and anywhere on the dial the music was actually GOOD.

[@gardendormouse6479]

Some of us don't need to imagine it, we lived it.😉

[@moccalou]

@@gardendormouse6479 Lucky!!! I was alive in 1988 too but too young to figure out a radio.

[@moccalou]

@@2cautious Ahhh, yeah. The 90s were really great. Do you remember the fidget spinner craze a couple years back? That's exactly what the 90s was like all the time. It was also full of uplifting movies and stories that didn't have to have an agenda other than to make you feel like you could do anything you put your mind to. Everyone felt empowered instead of offended. The world seemed to run a lot smoother, and there was no social media to exhaust people with apathy and stupidity. A lot of us 90s kids I think still have hope for the future because we know what the world can be like when society is properly functioning. I think we'll get there again. :)

[@moccalou]

@@2cautious Yeah, I agree with all you said. I think a lot of people are getting tired of social media and starting to take breaks from it. There's just too much toxicity out there when you're joined with the entire world. The 00s and early 10s were great too. Instead of being connected to the entire world as a tiny blip on the radar like you are now with social media and Reddit, online forums and bulletin board systems reigned supreme in those decades. You kind of got paired together with just a few people instead of thousands for one particular interest. There was more emphasis on individuality and self-expression with profile pictures, and the information and images you could put in your profile. It was a lot easier to see the same people every day and make friends and bond with them. The internet was a lot more like a small town where everyone knew your name rather than the giant metropolis it is now. I'm hoping that in 10 years from now we'll figure out again that it means more to have a small group of close friends rather than to have the most clout with millions of people you'll never know. And hopefully the world off the internet won't be so affected by mob mentality anymore because everyone feels included and able to thrive without trying to affect other people's lives from outrage culture.

[@moccalou]

@@2cautious Hang in there and be hopeful! :)

[@chrism.2711]

"Jon this is black coffee!!!!" BWAAAHAAAHAAA I love it

[@ImotekhtheStormlord-tx2it]

he's 39 here and looks like he was in his 20's

[@moccalou]

He was 40 and almost 41 even!

[@julietrask7497]

Sylvia was a character.

[@Hubcapdiamondstarhalo]

Sylvia from midnight cowboy. Lol Nelson had some interesting friends, to say the very least. They were ridin that 80's wave. This planet doesn't even seem like the same one we find ourselves in today.

[@Rosesyoutube]

That coffee moment at the end 😂😂

[@julietrask7497]

I know ! Talk about passive-aggressive 😮

[@starmoon1590]

there weren't many homeless then... Everyone had each other's backs...happily too...

[@epipd5712]

i Loved that small crystal ball thing that Nelson wanted to buy. I wonder who has that now? i love unusual stuff. Nelson looks so gorgeous in this video.

[@NatalieG1981]

Me too!! I’d love to be able to buy that now 😊

[@gigimohammed7457]

He had a beautiful hair

[@Emberoutdoors]

The original vlogger

[@sooofisticated0499]

It’s nice seeing New York when it was a center of culture.

[@cameronhamilton3717]

Back in the days when everyone seem to know each other, no matter who they were, what they did, or where they were from.

[@flyfly2850]

At the jewelry event has Italian music in the background those artists were very in vogue in the days...I was a kid but I remember my parents playing those songs too.

[@melissarosario6176]

blogging back n the days 😚

[@Juiceboxjuice]

Thank you so much for uploading these videos! I love watching them so I really appreciate it.

[@newyorkshitty3026]

He's the first vlogger ever

[@simoneizzo3222]

1:45 song: Lucio Dalla - Amore Piccolino

[@simoneizzo3222]

It's Italian btw

[@Sneakers102]

Nelson...I await your voice your swag...You

[@WETiLAMBY]

I wonder how much this guy spent on video tapes, jesus christ theres a lot of footage

[@starmoon1590]

WETiLAMBY - Thank Heavens he did this...it's so healing

[@fordsrule35]

Video tapes weren't "cheap" in the 80's either.

[@marisolroman9344]

It is so funny Sylvia is showing them her own jewelry just to say '' this is real" stuff.

[@Akenaten1]

Isn’t she a crack 😂

[@Devlins10]

"I wanna go back, and do it all over but I can't go back I know."

[@neiils899]

That's a nice quality camera..

[@mrmikeyd2]

This is a rarity indeed....Bunny OUT of drag!

[@LEERILEY33]

He reminds me of Judd Nelson.

[@monkeyintellect]

Its so dark everywhere, thats a common theme I see throughout these videos not enough lights.

[@thesundog8833]

A new video!!!

[@Mizzle252]

I bet y’all were snorting that good yayo

[@peteocean2848]

12/23 wow my birthday!

[@jillkltr]

Wow - Nelson called Lahoma Jon @6:38!

[@TheRadboy84]

I keep noticing little things in his videos . Not to sound crude but have you ever noticed on the streets and parts there are almost no overweight people ? Walk those same streets and go to clubs and it's very noticeable. Not body shaming just I guess people didn't have as many bad food options or no internet or TV made people GO OUTSIDE and get around to have fun .

[@randomhuman4623]

There was TV, there just weren't as many devices and ways to make people addicted to spending time on them, therefore parents couldn't use them as babysitters.

[@waynesteadfineartphotograp2758]

Your stating facts. It’s not crude at all.

[@davidanderson7382]

Sylvia was a New York original from a time when originality seemed a little hard to come by. Always love seeing her in media

[@krismartinez2334]

I don't know this city like you left over queen's from the 70's

[@NirvanaMK]

The world seems the same but the way everyone talks is different.

[@mysticalcatnip221]

because people knew HOW to talk back then

[@gameoverwehaveeverypixelco1258]

Do you time travel and do a vlog then return to upload vid..

[@Marmotone]

GAME OVER "WE HAVE EVERY PIXEL COVERED" He is uploading from heaven.

[@avalondreaming1433]

Nelson being a prima donna. Lol

[@psychospacecadet]

Sorry to be ignorant, but the jeweler is Stewart Freeman?

[@whoareyoutoaccuseme]

psychospacecadet I thought he said "Stuart Friedman"

[@psychospacecadet]

violet_blume i wasnt sure the name

[@mahitajenny]

@@psychospacecadet - Stuart Freeman ~ still a jeweler & living in NYC ~ on FB ~ super nice man

[@conner4991]

They have an 80’s accent which could be either the shitty mic’s fault or just them being fabulous

[@kengeorgejones6855]

Nice to see some quieter moments. I usually don't care for Nelson wearing the Manos Hands of Fate facial hair but it works here. He looks distinguished. I notice that Lady Bunny often tries not to be seen in these.

[@whoareyoutoaccuseme]

Ken George Jones I think he's incredibly handsome no matter what style he has. And I noticed it about Bunny too. I wonder why...

[@DylanRomanov]

She’s peculiar

[@crystalgoldson]

RaddddddddddD

[@Ariel692769]

Was he really cooking pop tarts? 🤔

[@marisolroman9344]

Sylvia does not like any of the jewelry, because she is above that.

[@chriscullmann1103]

Serious question, was Nelsons death (I believe heart attack) a result of drugs or natural causes?

[@johnjoseph4295]

It might be drugs, because he certainly looks old for his age of 41 at the time of his death

[@TheRadboy84]

There are rumours . Some say he did coke the last night with a party guy that came over. Then i heard he died from smoking some weed he thought made him feel funny ...maybe laced so it could been that to . Then again they eat 90% of their food at diners so high cholesterol. I must say it seems weird the circumstances around his death are so murky ..just a heart attack ? He seemed in ok shape to just die like that . Also the fact no one has publicly said what happened that night in detail tells me the circumstances may have been drug related and no one wanted to get in shit so they kind of covered it up . Only ones who know are ru Paul and ladie bunnie and whoever came over after he shut off the camera that last time .

[@TheRadboy84]

John Brennan you think he looks old for 41?

[@gardendormouse6479]

I've read that his father died young from a heart attack, too. Probably hereditary heart problems.

[@erikadowdy686]

I was 17 and into meth already. Sad

[@erikadowdy686]

Glendon Thomas NO NO NO!! Its nothing like it used to be when i started. Crap now. Get out if u can

[@erikadowdy686]

Its all bad now, always have been

[@SwedishEmpire1700]

I was 9 and into Commodore gaming. LOL

[@starmoon1590]

I carried a copy of Helter Skelter in 1976 or so...but damn it kept the bullies away.

[@Publicenemy1234]
