A thread devoted to George Grosz, courageously provocative modern artist born on this day in Berlin in 1893—and one of my absolutely favorite artists. To me, Grosz is the historical artist who most captures the spirit of our current moment. Here he is in his so-called "Dada Death" costume circa 1918

This wretched hairpiece quartet of labyrinthine halls and basements' haunting just finished up mixing our third album with intrepid sonic captain Doug at Jamdek in Chicago.

The Damen silos would rule as a permanent music festival ground
Damen Silos should be a concert venue, groups say
Preservationists and a community organization say a public park and musical festival site is an idea worth pursuing, but demolition of the structures appears imminent.

The first Pride parade that I had the privilege to march in was in 2001 in Chicago, the June after I graduated from high school. I went with a group of fellow grocery store workers. At one point, I was asked to carry and handed a pole attached to a banner from a tired stranger.

The garage sale of Charles Joseph Smith is still on at 3321 W. Armitage Ave (Chicago). Lots of my stuff is still remaining but has to go. It likely will be a moving sale soon.

Never got to meet Studs Terkel in person.

I did get to meet Wesley Willis when I was a teenager. One on one on Michigan Ave, quel reve pour petit moi musicale.

Dear Reader:

Who did you want to meet or did you get to meet that changed your life’s course and uplifted your passions?

dear friend @charlesjosephsmith.bsky.social and I spoke today and he informed me that display cases are chock full of his inimitable work at Decoraters Tattoo in Chicago. Word to the wise listener.
