Libraries for Sensitive Neanderthals ~ Stellate Ganglion Blocks and History of Nothing
How to remain porous and ready for inspiration as an artist while not growing cynical and hardened in a topsy-turvy world? Sure go to libraries, be a good dad to a curious kid who is learning about Neanderthals… and talk about these things on a dodgy mic beside a crackly fire with a few chords on a ukulele
