A GOOD READ.

The Traveller

The first of two trips to warm, far away places started today.

Too hot and too early.

I'm going to miss her.

She's been buying and packing dresses.

Mostly from No.6

Slit My Throat Callahan

One of the best audience heckles of all time.

N, S and I all went along to Bowery Ballroom this week to see Mr Callahan perform the entirety of APOCALYPSE alongside a few choice classics (Our Anniversary and Say Valley Maker, were particularly welcome).

Good ol' Voice Memo recordings below:

He likes to blog now.

And just arrived in town.

CY TWOMBLY

{SCULPTURES: 1953 - 2002}

It seems strange now not to have an "afterword".

I made this post early this morning, having had it sitting around on my desktop for over a week. I've always been a fan of Mr Twombly's work (more HERE), and felt like this place needed some fresh examples.

I suppose this was coupled with a recent, more newly found, appreciation of sculpture in all it's various forms.

I thought now was a good time.

Turns out: a strange time.

I did not know he had passed until Christophe left his comment, and so immediately checked The Times. Shocked, and feeling strange.

However you look at it, it's odd that I chose this morning to publish this post, just a few hours before the news of his death.

R.I.P

A true great, in each of his disciplines.
