The fund-raiser for Wally Tax's funeral that took place in Amsterdam last sunday raised about 10.000 Euros. Word on the streets has it that Wally had exactly 3.75 left on his bankaccount when he died...
While the world goes mental over the new Pope (Benedict), tales of black and white smoke don't make for terrific radio so I had to switch off. Favourites for a nickname is between "Eggs" and "Arnold" (allegedly). However enough levity, I don't feel much like yattering so we'll stick with a couple of visuals and general public service announcements for folks lucky enough to be in striking distance of either of these joints...



"Hello Friend - Will your Thursday be complete without a trip to Otto's Shrunken Head to visit with the good gentlemen of Susquehanna Industrial Tool & Die Co.? Maybe yes, maybe no. You weigh the risks of incompletion and we'll provide the musical accompaniment, okay?

THURSDAY / APRIL 21st / OTTO'S SHRUNKEN HEAD TIKI BAR & LOUNGE /
538 EAST 14th STREET / MANHATTAN / 8:00 UNTIL 10:00 SHARP / NO COVER! /


Sincerely, Michael"

I swear I heard a guy on Radio Scotland last week mention the town of Susquehanna, I dunno the context, I might even have dreamt it, but it hacked a smirk across my grim coupon for a nanosecond... The artwork below was for an event in Madrid last week is cracking so I figured that you might like to see it... anybody heading for that fabulous Spanish city should make Louie Louie a must hang-out.
