Congrats on your new buggy, what did you end up getting?
Ricardo Montalban may be the best name ever. I used him and Tattoo in a series of posters for The New Green's final show in Michigan before I moved to NC. I can't find any of the final posters, but here's an early rough draft: He was a bad ass. I miss playing live shows. A lot. Thanks for the jog down memory lane via your penchant for names with "car" in them. Most hubskiers probably have no idea who he is or what this photo is from. lil and kleinbl00 -I'm betting you do. What an odd show that was.
One of my favorite songs by my good pal Tim Monger mentions Ricardo: http://timothymonger.bandcamp.com/track/crime-on-a-summer-day Great tune, eh?
HA. If so, I'm right there with ya pal. Not just age, but a certain type of person would recall this show, it's me thinking highly of you both... and recognizing that you're not 18.
I remember being totally excited to stop watching an episode of Fantasy Island because we were going to go see Ice Pirates. It was... kind of? worth it. FUN FACT: JJ Abrams was asked to come up with a pitch on rebooting Fantasy Island, only "edgy." He came up with Lost. Eventually, they were supposed to stumble across Mr. Rourke, the resort, the whole nine yards... but they got halfway through writing Season 1 and decided they were better off without.
