From his Daily News column in 2005
DanielMacKay writes: one of my favourite stories from those days is when we -- Pride perhaps or some other good cause -- had a fund raiser of selling the teeshirts off your back. So someone would buy the one you were wearing and you would sloooowwlly strip it off, give it to them, and put on a fresh one from a big stack you had behind the bar. And one night I was there, there was an older gentleman in a matching suitjacket and slacks at the bar, buying one teeshirt after the other off you and you made a pile of them.
And at the end of the evening he got up to leave and you said, "Don't forget your shirts!" and he said, "Young man, do I look like the sort of person who wears tee shirts? I was only buying them to watch you strip them off. Please keep and re-sell them."
