A sort of selfie, I suppose.

Very cool!

Though you probably should get those warts checked out.  ;)

A moody shot from a recent gig of the Bowie tribute I'm singing with:

Thanks, guys. I'll relay that to the author - from what I remember, she's new to concert photography but I've checked some of her other shoots and was quite impressed.

Great photo, Rinaldo. This could be used in some liner notes!

Really love the photo, Rinaldo! It's very artistic. ;)

I'll see if I can attach a photo of myself from a month ago...me playing guitar again....(Xuefei Yang to my right)

'Heroes' is a great song - there is a Heroes Symphony by Glass.

Also an Eroica Symphony by some forgotten someone else.

Sounds familiar! But the Glass is directly inspired by Bowie's album of the same name.

Sweet! Also exactly how I imagined someone named Basil would look like.

There is no way Beethoven was not also inspired by David Bowie!!!!!!!!!!!

Most enjoyable Jessop, well played.
Andante always true to his word has kicked the Marijuana soaked bot with its addled brain in to touch.

Too cool for school.
