thanks for the link /i tried to friend dave on face book but it seems he has WAY too many friends-- shame is i am a real world friend
I think so. Things from them days are a little foggy some days. Michael/Mica was was a tight bro and we kept in touch until his death a little over a month ago. I was/am part of the family there. call DD @ (415) 341-1199 between 4-6 Friday. he'll get a kick out of it!
I knew Diamond Dave when he was running poetry night at Brainwash South of Market about 10 years ago. I think he was living with his son Ubi who's a pretty monster bass player. C/S, Rev J
I've known him since the '60. Call him on his show next Friday. When he was doing food stamp out reach out of an office on Hayes St. he explained to me how it was my patriotic guty to apply bc the farmers needed the support! ('70s)
Yeah I think he does. I was doing some stuff out at City College last week and think I saw him out there. C/S, Rev J
These photos has reqiured a lot of work with photoshop to get them cleared up (Whew, what a job) Under high resolution you can see some of the most incredible intricate artwork, just truly amazing. Where exactly, except in the front of the shop this artwork existed remains very unclear to me. I put a couple of them in my album, but the resolution has really blurred them. The art had just so many dimensions to it. You could see many different things just by looking at it a little differently. Anyway I am still working on this one.
Have not seen that unicorn in ages! The BU art I recall tripping on was the art around the insides of the skylight.
