Permalinks to this entry: individual page or in monthly context . For more material from my journal, visit my home page or the archive .
So, last night, as Canada Day ended, I jammed in a pickup band at the Experience Music Project with Dave Dederer of the Presidents of the United States of America (who played guitar while I played drums, and drums as I played guitar) and Doug Kaye (on bass).
Then I went downstairs and saw "Water Lilies " by Monet . No, not a print, but the actual original work, as well as others by Cézanne, Picasso, Brueghel, and Canaletto. They blew me away.
That's a night I don't expect to replicate in my lifetime.
