The Cure live, Tampa June 2023

A short video of In Between Days, a song that has great personal meaning for me.
Amalie Arena. The lotto style tickets worked for us this time. This was in my top favorite concerts of my life.

Just began watching Who's Afraid of a Cheap Old House. On S1, E4: Yellow Bathroom

So happy they updated the yellow bathroom instead of getting rid of pieces that were fully functional and in great shape. They made it modern. This is what I was looking for in this show. Loved it!

My 35 year-old Wish tour t-shirt has seen better days. My daughter had custody of it for 10 years

This was a fun year because I was able to see them in both Chapel Hill, NC and NYC! Wonderful memories.

Ugliest house in America, Miami

>!Season 8 episode 3. The House that won as a semi-finalists, Spanish style in Miami with a lot of mosaic accents. It will make me sad if they completely redo this house. I love this house and would make very few changes. Updates, and a few decor changes. Anyone who loves old Gothic style would adore this house, and want to treasure all the work that was put into the mosaics. could remove a few of the mosaics if you don't like them and replace them with ones you do like. Just venting. This made me so sad.!<

Jeff Buckley wrote on 9/23/1989:

I only want to be above the norm. More splendid than anything the existing
"conventions" could ever offer me, to always push for the highest concepts. With full power and total awareness and infinitely colored and infinitely positive sense of life. Totally anti-derivative, always soul-generated. Anything is possible in the name of heaven. All this must be so happening, so rebellious, so fucking rocking the house, always extremely uncommon, apart from the past. I follow no one, I command no one. This has got to be huge, the hugest, the new standard, always on the living edge where only dreams and nightmares dwell. While I sail the furious ship of reality through the heart of their domain. Sparkling danger colors as intense as sunlight, more intense sounds of eternity, words of infinity, flying on blue-white fire. These are my objectives, this is my life like none before and none after. To break through the fiery death of living hell that is everyday life. To destroy the walls of fear ignorance, denial, evil, oppression, dishonesty, conformity. To break through them and live to climb higher, live to reap my riches, to go on to seek all answers.

(He achieved most of these goals.)

Why didn't they give him a paintbrush &amp; paints?

This line keeps running over and over in my head. This was the whole reason for taking the shrooms!
I know we couldn't have all the answers this early. It still gets to me😂

Ocracoke Island, NC reminds me of Widow's Bay. 25 miles from the coast of NC, we used to take a 3 hr ferry ride from Swan Quarter. It has the same feel if you go in the winter off-season. A few pics are from a March trip a few years ago.

Jeff Buckley His Own Voice Edited by Mary Guibert and David Bowie 9/20/1989 Journal Entry It's difficult to read, so I will quote here:

Look up Jason- Great basist. Get 10 songs-hard slamming songs= over capacity ideas- over the fucking edge set of tunes to gig with. Do this before anything else. Get set together by October 20. Rehearsed by the 31st down! Book gigs from November all the way to February 10 or so. Me, Jake and a drummer. RAJIS, Shamrock, Coconut Teeazer, (Troubadour, Gazzaris' what the fuck Jeff it's fucking pay to play) Hideaway, Gaslight, OC Clubs, FM Station, Palomino, and yes, Sasch, Anti-Club, Exposure 54, Parties, Club Lingerie, Whiskey China Club, Country Club- is that pay to play?
Opening spots for bigger venues featuring bigger bands. Nobody is gonna fucking tell me that my life is boring, no one is gonna fucking open my doors or hook me up and get me out of my own rut. I'm not gonna ride in on anyone's fucking shirt tales. Fuck that shit baby I can do it. And what's more is I'm fucking doing it right now. So fuck you!
(not promising there are no errors here, lol)

Widow's Bay. I hope we will see what happened here. This was hilarious, but I also imagined that everyone would see something really scary when he turned around. That the mushrooms had changed his physical appearance maybe. Fantastic show!
