I am "listening" the the audio-book of Andy Weir's The Martian, all 11 hours of it. Much more in-depth than the movie.
The reason I'm listening to it instead of reading it is, One, I don't own a copy of the book (which was originally FREE on the internet), but downloaded the audio book for...
I love archtops!. Have owned mostly Gretsches and Gibsons, starting with a 1964 Gretsch Tennessean I had in the late 1980s.
My Mid-'60s Silvertone, which I played through my pro-gigging years of the 1990s.
My matching pair of Gretsch Brian Setzer signature 6120s
My 2001 Gretsch...
My latest commissioned work. A T-shirt and poster illustrtion for a Tin-Type (wet-plate) Photographer who works out of a mobile darkrrom set up in a vintage Harley Davidson sidecar. He liked the skull-faced figure in my previous illustration and wanted him as the rider, dressed in Brando's '50's...
Been seriously thinking about getting into Wet-Plate Collodion photography for some time now, and just happened across this the other day. it belonged to my girlfriend's father, who operated a photo studio in the late 1940's and 50's after returning form WWII. It's a Pony Primo #4 made around...
Here is some illustration and design work I just finished for a new album/CD by a friend's primitive blues band. The work is based off a famous photo of blues pioneer Robert Johnson.
LizzieMaine, What town do you work with? I was just up in southern Maine back in August. Beautiful country up there. Everything I saw looked like it could be on a postcard.
This thread reminds me of how much money Hollywood productions waste on things that you don't see on screen. That's why 7 to 10 million dollars in Hollywood is considered a low-budget film, while some independent films shot on not even a tenth of that look more expensive on-screen.
What you say makes sense. I am an occasional filmmaker myself, having worked mostly on my own personal projects but also on commercial productions. However, I have never had the luxury of working with a Hollywood crew nor with that kind of budget. Our location shoots are usually limited to...
Considering your profile pic is a slice of pizza, I take it you are a bit of a pizza connoisseur. In your opinion, what is the best pizza in NYC?
I've been to Lombardi's which is supposed to be where American pizza originated. It wasn't bad but frankly I wasn't all that impressed.
On my recent stay in New York and travels in New England, I ate at several places that were famous filming locations . . .
The Airline Diner in Queens , NY . . . featured in the film Goodfellas, and others.
Katz's Deli in lower Manhatan . . . famous restaurant scene from "When Harry Met...
Back in Bama for now. Looks like I've be splitting my time between Bama and NY for awhile, along with guest spots in other parts of the country. Had the earge to travel a lot lately.
I'm actually been sporting a mustache quite a bit of late, along with growing my hair.
Sometimes mustache alone, and sometimes with a short trimmed beard
