I should talk more about the TMBG shows I saw a few months ago! One funny mental moment I keep thinking of is at the first concert Danny Weinkauf had on an orange shirt that I was having difficulty reading

first I thought it just said “Dan Weinkauf” which I found funny to just be wearing a shirt with your own name on it and a doodle of a little guy I think

Then I was like no, it says something else and then read “Kill Weinkauf,” an even funnier shirt to be wearing in my opinion especially with such a chill font and vibe of the drawing on it

But there was no way. So after about a solid minute of staring and harnessing my tmbg backing band knowledge I realized it said Kai Weinkauf... like his son… like his son who makes music.

After some admonishment by Flans regarding our shortcomings as performers (and possibly human beings, who can say?), the audience participation experiment commenced..... all hail the traffic cone!!!!

Day 853

[sothiseeker]

This was a picture JF took of himself, back when he was attending"Gypsy" early last year (originally posted on Instagram). Thought it would be nice to share, since it's such a lovely and sensitive portrait, taken by an artist of himself. Much like Frida Kahlo turned her eye upon herself, over and over again with her self portraits, I always find it interesting when an artist chooses to do this, how they choose to present themselves back to the world.... While the artist is ultimately separate from and more complex than the art they create, presenting an image of themselves as art through portrait is always a fascinating thing to me.....

I had a dream where I offered Flans a ride on my bike, but we lost balance and crashed, so sorry about that.

JF: I had the same dream!
