…without Instagram???

This photo was posted last night!! Rehearsals have begun at last, gang! (This is the production crew, the musicians, the director, and Sandra in the center.)

And while we’re at it–

This appears to be Johnny Depp, but he’s not smoking so we can’t be 100% certain…. (I love this photo!):

And here’s Keith in 1973!!

And this tour begins TODAY in Ashville, NC!!

And we’re celebrating THIS today!! Tender Prey, by Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds, was released 35 years ago this very day!! (I cannot believe I am getting so old!!)

(And that — pictured above– is only a fraction of the record albums I still own, although over the years, I gave away a couple thousand because I got so sick of having to pack them up and move them all over NYC.)

(And, yes, that is only a portion of the VHS movies I still own!! So many amazing memories. I cannot part with them. And the VCR has lasted longer than the DVD players do. I’ve replaced the DVD player 4 times…)

(Yes! I have such Hollywood classics as “The Philadelphia Story,” and “The Little Foxes“. And international classics such as, “The Bicycle Thief” (heartbreaking; Italy 1948), and “The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner.” (wonderful; UK 1962). A little known gem from 1990, “Tune In Tomorrow” (so funny!) and a 1993 masterpiece “Arizona Dream“. I basically forced anyone who came into our apartment that year to sit down, have a drink and watch that film. Everyone was equally amazed by it!)

All right, gang. That’s really all today.

I agreed to work the day shift tomorrow at the train station because they are short on help this week, so today is my BIG DAY OFF!! I’m going to get down to some writing here.

Have a terrific Tuesday, wherever you are in the world!!

Thanks for visiting.

I love you guys. See ya!
