My week in photos...

I saw a huge internet celebrity on my way to work - Mr Peter Pan!

Had to pull over when I saw this.... anyone who knows Alan would laugh.

The TShirt booth at a Cluster concert....


Iron Maidens (female Iron Maided tribute band we saw - truly great fun)

Glastonbury Mudfest !!

We played at the UK's most (in)famous festival; Glastonbury. Great crowd and lotsa great music. But the MUD was SO SO SO SO bad. Not that they can control the weather, but pick a better place for it or something... imagine walking through 14" deep chocolate pudding,


Catering tent for the rock stars and crews. Yuk.
Orchestral players near the stage!
Backstage for the rockstars - a nice walkway!
7am (our load in after leaving Liverpool at 2 am!). Good thing the breakfast tent was over a mile away. Yum.

40 Days in the Desert

Well, a week. But it was longer than I've ever had to spend out there. My great friend Annica took me in, her home is right up against the hills (next door to nature). It is a quiet and comfortable retreat. We get along great and she introduces me to her nature-based neighbors of the animal kingdom. They creep down from the hills and check out the water (or smaller critters who came for water - that old story...)

Here you will see; the house, the hill, two bobcats, some local color, the top of a hill I hiked where there was a bench.House from front, then from the hillside above...
James, the beautiful bobcat.


An old mother bobcat perched up high...



Local color...

The bench! If you look closely, it's at the top of a hill/cliff, which falls away on three sides in front of it. Looking towards Yucca Valley...


James, again, on the patio for water...

More perusal possibilities...

Model of Downtown LA at the museum. Pretty good. I can almost see my house from here...
I did not stay here, and I did not show you the full logo they have. Better.
Somebody brought their Honda Civic to sell at the Auto Meet. Easy to transport I guess...

Timing is everything.

Just look at the TIMES I put all these posts up. Hmmm....

Onward... to the future!

PINBALL Wizard is SO passe now....
(looks like Roger!)
























Miss Lisa Jane Persky, nee Miss Lisa Jane Persky-Zax, looking cool preshow at the Hollywood Bowl. Of all the Hootie shows we saw this year, this one was in the top 30...





















Me, recording in 1733 at the Ben Franklin studio
(anyone know this reference?)

LONG corridor in the Atlanta airport

















New gas station in Beverly Hills - weird!

















Bob Moog's old car - it's still around.

















My friends from The Germs backstage before a show.
















My new (old) guitar, from 1962; what style!!!

Genesis' Last (ever?) concert...

Thanks to good friend Andy Zax, I got to see the last Genesis show. Maybe for ever - this was a small reunion tour. Not as cool as OLD Genesis by far - it went from great to terrible constantly. But some great is better than none great!

As always with Genesis - IT LOOKED AMAZING








The "double drummer solo" section.... Chester and Phil together.













Hollywood Bowl - always a great space, and looks exceptional on its own...

Grandstand at the Fair when Liz and I went to see HEART play. Good times, I miss them...






















Unique? Yes.


























MANY questions about this...

Welcome

Something from the grab bag...

INSANE M&Ms jacket man at NAMM show, walking sideways up a blue wall?





I get it, I get it!






Home sweet home, OFR






We were on tour, Windsor England, and you'll never guess what we found.





It says PIRATE, but I had to wait a while til the random flashing letters spelled IRATE so you would laugh....
