We made a home movie of the event, check it. It’s me & N. delivering the goods for tomorrow’s visual premiere of Neil’s new album Le Noise on YouTube.
Back to Le Noise. Don’t forget,...

The People and The Cars Worked Together
Hello, dear Blog, my faithful friend. Today was one of the biggest days of my life. My official Coming Out Party! I will tell you all about it when I get some rest. It’s exhausting just having everyone who matters to you in the same room, but then of course there were all kinds of strangers on top of that (but I prefer to think of them as friends I haven’t met yet), and press to...
