Sad news. David Ball, from Soft Cell, passed away last night. He'd been battling ill health, and Marc Almond told me that he had to drop out of the US Soft Cell tour because of it. They were instrumental in starting the British Invasion of the 80s.He will be terribly missed.
Flying back to LA after an incredible few days on the east coast and the wonderful wedding of Alicia and Topher last night. The airport is super quiet for Krista and I's early morning flight, so we'll probably doze off at 35,000 feet. Back on SiriusXM 1st Wave tomorrow. Talk to you then #iflyalaska
First day on the east coast. Heading through Maine and then into New Hampshire. Stopped at Gary's Tavern in Naples (not Italy!) for lunch. Fun bar and they even have an IPA for 80's fans - Totally Tubular. Fun times.
It's Indigenous People's Day, I learned so much when I was writing my first novel, SPQR, and working with a dear friend, Grey Eagle, to get as much correct as possible. Times have obviously changed so much, but our country's first inhabitants should be remembered and respected.
Thinking of buying a coffee maker tomorrow during Prime Days. Question. Anyone have any recommendations for which DECAF K-cup brand I should get for the machine? Thanks.
