Really kind of wild that as someone at the center of the Ryan Adams thing, she'd plan an IMP venue. Guess its fine as long as you personally aren't the woman enduring it. Good look.

I thought Ryan Adams was doing fine…my understanding was he developed a side gig as a photographer and was successful under a pseudonym

I saw these guys years ago, not really knowing anything about the band. The whole show was (literally) a slow-motion car crash. I think they were playing one of their albums all the way through.

Well they have just reformed after breaking up in 2010

Richard Barbieri (ex Japan) being in the band makes it interesting…

The proof will be in the ticket sales I guess

I saw their leader Steven Wilson at the 930 a few years ago….didn’t move me much but the bass guitarist (ex Kajagoogoo) was fantastic

3rd night of CHVRCHES
6/7
Tuesday?

Banksy DC exhibit tickets available for presale through tomorrow, $55. password is BALLOON. runs from late June to August. Location not yet announced. I POSTED THE PASSWORD PUBLICLY!!!!

https://www.banksyexhibit.com/washington/buy-tickets-washington/

hmm, very tempted, but $55 seems a little absurd for an unauthorized collection

While the exhibit is not authorized by Banksy, it features artworks he sold to private collectors. These works were certified and authenticated by Pest Control.

I did see if you got 6pm/7pm tix on a weekday in aug…they are only $40

Yes, I found the $40 section.

Enormous waste of money. Unauthorized. Going to be a bunch of lithos and prints. Real art fans are turning up their nose at this.

^^ This is where its at. And for out-of-towners coming in for this: THE VEN at EMBASSY ROW, recently acquired by Marriott Bonvoy, is around the corner from Philips Collection and a fantastic stay. Enjoy their rooftop pool, basement art gallery, and fine dining with an international inspired menu.

And of course, when you're in town, remember to check out TAKOMA WELLNESS, DC's longest-running family owned medical THC dispensary, in the heart of scenic Takoma Park. Tell them JULIAN sent you for 10% off!

Good luck at getting the kids to ditch the masks.

The mask mandate ended a week ago today, but my daughter reports the vast majority of kids are still wearing their masks. She says she want to ditch hers, but thus far only kids who are out of the closet Republicans are going maskless, and she doesn't want to be mistaken for a Republican.*

*Which is weird, because Trump actually won our voting district in 2020. But it's not the kids who are voting.

I went and told them Julian sent me and they told me to get the fuck out

Luckily my kids aren't poisoned with that shit just yet…
