Hello Lionel Richie from Silicon Valley

I’m a Ludditte, I work in the arts not tech, so I try to refer to this as Santa Clara Valley, not “Silicon Valley”. In this case I am talking about the fact that by buying 6 tickets to see Lionel Richie at Golden Voice Frost Stanford, I redeemed the codes to apparetnetly (sic) have 6 copies of his new album sent to my post office box.
by the way, Liked Joe Russo and being in frost but left early.
Loved the Stones.
Coming back to Frost to see The National, whoever they are.
Bought Willie Nelson tickets for there, get well soon.
Have five onsales of my own. Dayna Stephens rocked or swung the Mitch, Sunday afternoon before Rolling Stones,which is why I left JRAD early, banking my energy.
So Terry — who like me is in the arts and not tech — TMW — Terry Acebo Davis — oh, shit, Pollstar just called and now I forgot — I guess she is cranking Lionel Richie Radio on one of those rip off the artists more than the consumes services so we’ve flashed from Lionel to Eagles to Credence — anyhow it took me only 9 minutes to get 6 copies apparently arriving by snail mail being sent to me not likely by Saturday’s show but we’ll see and edita. But a cd as

edita: said wifey asked me to move a pile of stones from one side of our tiny yard and back so I went to take a shower, so now I am finishing off this post. It took 9 minutes to we hope have 6 cds sent to our PO Box but only 40 seconds to have the same song “Dancing on the Ceiling” to play on my smart phone, via Apple. I pay 9$ each month, unless they are waiting to charge me $20 for each of the hundred or so cds I’ve downloaded. Meanwhile yet sort of extraneous our or her Lionel Ritchie radio is take it easy.

the other thing I wanted to say is that I was tryng to broker an appearnace by the future POTUS Kirsten Gillibrand to make a stage announcement (“I’m going to go all night long for you”) at the Lionel show here Saturday though she arrives on Sunday. So I wrote Bruce Escowitz of Red Light Management who is also a former CEO of a division of Live Nation. So it would be a typical management decision for someone from touring not recordings Big Threee per se to use a cd promotion as a loss leader for concert tickets. Kirsten’s team is more down with Lizzo, managed by Full Stop, Irving Azoff et al. Who also have Sara Baeilles and Meghan Trainor. I still think Dessa is good for Kirsten — there’s a bull in the china shop, there’s a china doll in the bullpen.”
Hey, how about: I’m just a girl>>>I’m just a (sword) in the bull — referencing bullfighting and or bullshit the swamp. No Doubt parody.

This could be a poincare kind of pointy thingy thing >>>>^^^^ , calculating the surface ariola.

b/w I don’t think I know Lizzo but the photo of her hiding in her own flesh folds reminds me of something R.Crumb would come over or come up with. We all need, a wise man once said, something to cream on. And if you want, as John Wooden once said quick Henry, it’s Kareem!

Twenty-one arts photos from my email feed, butt-to-butt

I invited this singer, shown at her western wear day job, to sit at our table later that day, at Dazzle Denver, for Patty Barber show

I shot this cellist at the father’s day street music event and then months later found her website and realized it was the same person. She’s Jewish and on the rise, if I can think of her name and face

Steve Poltz said that my young friend A– looked a bit like Molly Tuttle, who is appearing at The Mitch on Monday, September 30, tickets onsale at EventBrite on September 1.

Give the drummers some

I have two or three bigger topics but since somebody just asked me to refer a drummer I want to give it up for Malachi Whitson who held down the corner or the pocket or the corner pocket with Dayna Stephens yesterday at The Mitch

Dan Adams with Beauman Edwards Equator group Residency at Lytton Plaza.

 

Joe Russo almost sell out at the frost Saturday which I believe was the first on sale for the new frost which is a tip of the hat to the grateful dead

Charlie Watts — which makes me want to update with the young girl with the short hair from the John Hughes movie

I saw Dave king of bad plus and happy apple at Stanford with an all star pick up band and out of respect for the venue did not shoot any action but did get the bow.

Scott Amendola of course at Palo alto Art Center and coming to The Mitch on October 11. I saw Esther Berndt my gun classmate at the Dayna Stephens show and she said she was excited to see Philip Greenlief  in that band.  But we were on drummers let me see if I can get to 10.
