Sometimes people write & ask me for advice on how 2 “make it” in this bizness of show. I wish I had simply sent them this photo. This is what u need 2 do- be a big green floofy thing, full of life, & refuse 2 stop growing. Keep growing- even if u have 2 explode out of a ROCK 2 B seen. (Taken with instagram)
This 1 is 4 Eric Gilliland. This is the 2nd day in a row that RoseMarie and Mory Amsterdam have hung out w/me. They’re good listeners, & it’s cheaper than therapy. (Taken with Instagram at Hollywood Reservoir)
I’ve named these 2 trees Scarlett & Melanie, because they remind me of the framework underneath those Belle Reve hoop skirts. No punch line here. Just namin’ some trees is all. What. (Taken with Instagram at Hollywood Hills)
THE DADDY LOOK (by Cottonhead, circa mid-90’s NYC)
My guitar playing is abysmal, but it sort of suits the sad optimism of the song. :-) This song is from my old band Cottonhead. It was written by Greg Talenfeld, the driving force behind the band. I just learned how to play it on guitar this weekend, so this is a work in progress to help me learn to play it. Please forgive all the clunky, misplaced chords and awkward tempo stops. :-) Gotta start somewhere.
Come on, everybody…. SING ALONG! (here are the lyrics):
Its not unclear that yr unkind Its not unclear that I dont mind
Just one more night and Ill admit yr always right
And the less you say, the more I have to feel.
It’s not unfair that you don’t care You’ve got so many friends out there
That Daddy Look just had me hooked I even tried to learn to cook
And the less you say, the more I have to fear
And its no big news that Ive been screwed This aint the first time I been used
Just one more nite, just one more nite yes I admit yr always right.
Just one more night before I disappear. Love is a blessing Love is good enough.
WESLEY TAYLOR GOES ON A “NETWORK GENERAL”
I did a teensy-weensy part in dreamy Wes Taylor’s (SMASH) video this week- and here it is: Ashley Austin Morris is awesome as the C***, & watch to the end 4 my excellent blackout line!
This is horrifying, Grotesque. And it is happening as the world stands by and watches and does nothing. I;m praying that President Obama will keep pressure on Russia to IMMEDIATELY get Asad out of Syria. ANYONE WHO HAS CHILDREN- please force yourself to watch this, and ask yourself what you would want your president to do if it had happened here in the U.S.
