Still wrecked from watching “Big Fish” this morning. Beautiful, frustrating, hilarious & sad, I never thought a film could nail the spirit of the conversations I had with my dad over the last few months but the film helped me reconcile the sadness and hurt left in his wake.

I just caught myself singing “Time Warp” from the #RockHorrorPictureShow in the voices of Eddie Vedder (“let’s do the Time Warp again” in a hard Vedder yarl) and Adam Sandler (“It's just a jump to the left…” in Sandler’s baby talk gibberish). My son thinks I’m insane.

On a big #RichardThompson kick lately. I guess as a “guitarist’s guitarist,” we all end up at RT eventually.

Suddenly remembering meeting David Thomas at UCLA’s radio station in 1991 and asking him what he thought of Peter Murphy’s version of this. He had two objections: PM took out some of the guitar freakery and he made the lyrics understandable. RIP indeed.

RIP David Thomas aka (in the early days) Crocus Behemoth: those first four Pere Ubu singles were stunning in 1975-1977 (post punk before punk) leading up the The Modern Dance and Dub Housing. Born 1953, I salute you fellow Snake

R.I.P. David Thomas of Pere Ubu . Really some of the best concerts I saw in the 70’s . Mind blowing in fact. Absolutely unique individual. Here’s one of my all time fave songs youtu.be/Leax63ullPE?...
