It made me so happy to read this wonderfully personal account of your experience with Shannon, Narducy & Friends. I can only hope you ventured onto YouTube to catch some of last year's tour, especially the 40 Watt's magical R.E.M. reunion, if you care, or dare to: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tb_O...

Eva Maria Saint and Marlon Brando in On The Waterfront, 1954. Cinema at its very finest, Oscars for both of them, also Best Picture, Director, and more that year. A film school staple now, along with the streamers that honor classics. Ms Saint passed today at age 102. Her legacy lives forever.

Paul Muldoooon! My favorite poet ever, now with this much-deserved honor. "It’s never too late for rock’n’roll", he once wrote, and would know so well. A musician as well as a poet, know to collaborate with a scoundrel or two. #PaulMuldoon #WarrenZevon #MyRidesHere

AFTP is such a perfectly sequenced masterpiece, my fave of all their LPs. Can’t pick one favorite song—they all flow one to the next. Sidewinder always makes me laugh and Sweetness always makes me cry. All are timeless winners imho.

We’ve lost yet another iconic artist, counterculture legend Peter Max. His style influenced and resonated throughout the era of psychedelia, even extending to The Beatles’ Yellow Submarine film. His album cover for Alice Coltrane was one of my favorites. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/16/a...

Such a great read, thank you. The El Dorado kept this mid-1970s UGA art student healthy and happy back then, and it sure helped that the old art school was just a few steps to downtown in those days. Current art students have no idea what they missed out on..
