So here we go?

Some of Bob Dylan's most raucous rock comes to life on 'The 1974 Live Recordings' https://www.npr.org/2024/09/30/g-s1-25431/some-of-bob-dylans-most-raucous-rock-comes-to-life-on-the-1974-live-recordings Sampler on some streaming services

From a long time ago...

Champian Fulton, Jane Monheit, and Camille Thurman doing a tribute to 30s-50s ladies of jazz, in Mtn. View, but touring the country.

Fall colors. 6D mk1 this time. Much smaller show at a burger joint a couple blocks from home.

Another trip around the sun remembering you.

RIP

Yeah that one is funny. There are so many critics, including those who've had no issues fighting against public opinion previously, wanting to love, or at least respect, Megalopolis, but the odds of this being a misunderstood masterpiece (à la CATS - sorry/not sorry) seems so low at this point. Can't wait for the longer director's cut. My favorite, seemingly fair, reviews... Old Young Of course there's no way I'll skip seeing the thing. Bonus

In anticipation of what is likely Coppola's newest disaster Megalopolis, listening to a previous disaster.

Short Documentary on Lee Miller Before Lee Also a new, small collection released as a tie-in. Can vouch for.

Hope it’s a great one.

Still need to do some color work, but here are a few snaps from a Lowrider event yesterday. Hassy 907x II 50c and 28p lens. Also starting to experiment with a NONS Instax Square back on a Hassy 500c, but really need to work on the exposure (the dynamic range is thin). Finally and best, met up with @robm321 as we solved the world problems over sugar.

Damn, I don’t have any of those, yet.

After you buy that GFX, Amazon has the three volume Eggleston collection The Outlands 56% off right now ($199 v. $450). Strangely links to a different collection as a "newer version" so it's possible a pricing mistake (don't see it on sale elsewhere), but if you like colors...

HBD. Do something fun today.

We haven’t been since pre-pandemic and with weekends filling it doesn’t look likely this one, but there’s still a small possibility. In so many ways I’m more a Dickens Fair-type, but two sides of the same illness. Also when did Gilroy and Hollister start being considered the “South Bay”?
