I Don't Want Nobody

Die like all fathers would want to die and nobody cares… better if it had been an overdose of something, it would have had more impact, more rock’n’roll… but being a Rockstar wasn’t in your nature…

Dying to save your twelve-year-old son… and the sea that doesn’t even return the body…

Of course, Randy Craig Wolfe didn’t have everything he could have had. Tremendous talent, it seemed like fate was on his side. Randy, a newly fifteen-year-old, randomly meets Jimi Hendrix in an instrument store in NY. “NOW IT’S MY TURN TO PLAY,” says the kid, Jimi smiles but is immediately amazed. Jimi isn’t yet that Jimi, he goes by the name of Jimmy James. He takes him into his band, calling him California because there were two Randys (California and Texas, so imaginative, right?). Soon enough, we know the History, Jimi Hendrix must make the big leap… to London. Everything happens in no time, as it used to back then… but Randy is still too young…

Then the great adventure with Spirit, a couple of decades without much fanfare… and in “his” Hawaii, at 45 years old, while swimming peacefully with his son… that rogue wave… that miraculous rescue… and that body that instead drifts away, without a fuss, as always…

FULL ALBUM! Six Satanic Princes Present: The Hoppin Grasshoppers (1967)
Unknown record that I'm listening to live. From the few snippets I've heard, it seems to be a kind of "Witchy" psychedelia completely soaked in the vibes of the year the record was released. In my opinion, it's worth a listen.

The Beatles - Free As A Bird

I don't know if it's clear that I am REALLY at the bird festival in Tricesimo.
Free!
And the morning passerby turns out to be something else!
What are these scandalous women doing here at six in the morning at the bird festival?
I appeal to the Great @[sfascia carrozze] to send me his triceratops to lend me a hand - or whatever it is - to face them!
 
Alice - Per Elisa

Remember the twenty-sixth of this month.
Carla - who, as always, could not miss the Sagra degli Uccelli in Tricesimo today - I saw her yesterday morning at the baker's.

Seventy years? Diobóia!

Tell me where to sign! Forget about doriangréis!

This is an imperial knockout! And don't get me started on those size thirty-seven little feet!
Always wrapped in soft black leather boots, midway up the calf.
Stuff that even a dead man would appreciate!

Ps. The story of the Sagra degli uccelli is true: my father used to carry me there on his shoulders.
It opens now and closes at noon.
What a childhood!
Come here and I’ll treat you to a haircut!

Best Cut Hair man-7 2016 Taglio capelli uomo

A handsome man like that offers me a Glenfiddich 18 through a mutual friend waitress. Have I (hetero with an LGBTQ+ daughter) earned or lost my sex appeal at my miserable age?
