What a fucking great band we were

“I say in speeches that a plausible mission of artists is to make people appreciate being alive at least a little bit. I am then asked if I know of any artists who pulled that off. I reply, 'The Beatles did'.” ― Kurt Vonnegut, Timequake

RIP Jerry Lewis (1926-2017) - Today we lost the great comedian, actor, writer, producer best known for his duo with Dean Martin in several films, and for roles in The Bell Boy (1960), The Nutty Professor (1963) and Scorsese’s The King of Comedy (1982); and also for his efforts as a humanitarian becoming national chairman of the Muscular Dystrophy Association and hosting his own telethon for the cause for more than 40 years. He died at age 91 leaving an impressive and remarkable career, and paved the way for many comedians and artists that came over the years.

The band you know. The story you don’t.

Paul used to come to my front door. He’d lean his bike against the fence and look over at me with his sheep eyes and say ‘Hello, Mimi. Can I come in?’ ‘No, you certainly cannot,’ I’d say.

You and I will meet again When we’re least expecting it One day in some far off place I will recognize your face I won’t say goodbye my friend For you and I will meet again

When I’m 80 years old and sitting in my rocking chair, I’ll be reading Harry Potter. And my family will say to me, “After all this time?” And I will say, “Always.”

the last photos of David Bowie - Jan 8 2016 by Jimmy King

david bowie’s star on the walk of fame at hollywood and highland this morning. a true rebel who not only really couldn’t be bothered with whatever people thought of him, but was a pioneer and paved the way for other musicians with an avant garde & experimental style to express themselves with a bit more courage. i can’t believe it, i’m completely in shock. we’ve lost a legend. hope you’re at peace now.
