Good thing I have no memory, cause wow that’s a lot of spoilers in one place.

Nice to see people I now know in this mix too, including Mohamed Abozekry on oud and Sam Nebyu on violin.

The new Zayed National Museum (designed by Norman Foster + Partners) looked stunning

I try to do this with students from places in the world where my references to references to references all mean nothing.

I totally get it. So we keep fighting and sending people down the wormholes the best we can

I wish I had time to show them videos of b-boys dancing at Soho galleries, or Rock Steady dancing at Lincoln Center. It's their homegrown culture, but they don't know it. Some don't get why I have Willie Colon on there either! But yes to all of the above

Keep fighting the good fight.

And one day. One day. They will be ready for this.

I wish I could have time for all of the above. The Ramones are my only CBGBs representative. Once in a Lifetime would blow their minds.

And then you could draw the line from CBGBs to both Fab Five Freddy and Fania

Isn’t that the job description?

Heart of Glass? Once in a Lifetime?

Want a video that will confound them?

Then you could make them watch the doc and radicalize them
