RIP Sky Saxon



In all the madness of last week, the passing of Sky Saxon skipped my radar. Post-Seeds, Sky was part of Ya Ho Wah 13 and moved to Hawaii with the source family, his ashes are headed back there.

The Seeds- They were one of those great bands that were terrible. Didn't matter- their records cooked. "Mr. Farmer"- that's a good one, man. Neil Young.

Agnes Varda

We saw Jacquot De Nates last night paired with Uncle Janco, a short film about Varda's uncle living in the houseboat community in Sausolito in the late 60's, beautiful and worth tracking down. Thanks Matty for the tip.
