BLUE MONDAY - The Touch Massage party will not be held at Serena's tonight and is looking for another venue for future parties. Check their website for updates. We hear that someone from the hotel complained about the nudity. (According to a professional masseur who works the event there is no nudity. Everyone keeps their underwear on.) Ridiculous, I know. Who on earth would care about what goes on in the basement? It's the Chelsea for God's sake. In further depressing gay-related news, the steam room and sauna at the New York Sports Club at 23rd & 8th have been closed due to "inappropriate behavior." You'll have to find that party at another venue as well.

Last chance to see "On Second Thought," a group show of multimedia work including Andy Warhol's black-on-black ``Four Marilyns'' (1979-86): a 36-by-28-inch silkscreen on canvas divided into four parts, each containing a barely discernible face of the legendary actress. One of the most interesting pieces is the 1995 video, in which Mike Kelley and Paul McCarthy restage and warp 1970s performances by provocative artist Vito Acconci -- complete with frontal nudity, bath bubbles and hysterics.
