What the hell was Dr. Kinsey really doing, hanging around Times Square, asking men to tell him about their sex lives, getting them to drop their drawers and measure their cocks for science? He told Herbert, "I'll tell you what, Mr. Huncke. You can help me greatly if you'd introduce me to some of your friends, so l can interview them as well. In fact, I'll give you two dollars for every subject you can bring me."
Herbert jumped at the chance. "I think I can help you, Dr. Kinsey. Why don't you come back to the Square some evening and I'll introduce you to some  good people I know."
Burroughs and Kinsey - and on occasion, Allen Ginsberg, Jack Kerouac and his wife, Edie Parker, Burroughs' wife Joan Adams, among others – would get together at one of several popular buckets-of-blood around the Square. Such dives as Gilroy's and The Angler. The good doctor Kinsey would remind his new friends of his study, and the Beats, having put on a glow, allowed that they were happy to "compile data."
It's interesting to speculate whether Kinsey's "facts," are weighted by the contacts Herbert Huncke provided him, the street hustlers, the excitable weekend queens confessing their transgressions.

We had gone out and had dinner a couple of times, then one morning we had a 2.30 show and I'm back to the hotel in my room and he calls and says, "Could I come over?" I said, "Well Elvis, there's no way in except the front. There's a back way, but you'd have to climb over the fence." He climbed that 8-foot fence, and tore his pants pretty bad. I had this little French poodle that I carried with me all the time.Called her Stormy.I locked her in the other room and the dog kept barking all night because of our noise. the next night the pit boss says, "Did you have a good time last night? We know who came in there last night."-Tempest Storm


One night I was dancing and I turned around and the wall kind of caught me,wouldn't let go.I had a hell of a saxophone man then, had my own drummer. I turned to Tony and I said, "I can't get off this wall. Use that saxophone, baby, and just suck me off of here." So he started going waeee, waaeee and you know, it worked, and I said, "Oh, that's good. Go up my backbone with that thing." I said, "Seduce me with that horn, baby." He went pppppp up my back and I'd bend over backwards and he'd go down the front. And I'd turn around and he'd go from one breast to the other and go pppppp. To my drummer, I said, "George, are you gonna let him take me away from you?" And George said, "I sure am not,baby" And George would go buh,buh,buh, buh. we made a finish at the center of the stage with that horn and that drum competing without ever touching me. This was at the Largo club on Sunset Strip in L.A.in the '50s and they came down and told me I had to tone my act down, told me my musicians had to stay in place.Ain't that ridiculous?-Candy Barr
