Tender Surrender.

Driving along Saturday evening after dropping my daughter over her friends for a sleepover, the sun was starting to go down and i had Steve Vais' "Alien Love Secrets" playing in the car. The last track "Tender Surrender" started playing and driving downhill with the sun setting in front of me and the window down, i had one of those moments where you think "fuck....life is good". I may live in Newport but fucking hell, i might have been in California for all the cares i didn't have in the world right then.

Yes fine, but you don't live in California, you live in Newport.
One of gods unloved places.

Awesome indeed. Frank Zappa used to call him his little Italian virtuoso.
Bloody awful fashion sense though. I have seen him in some truly dreadful outfits (and indeed, this is one of them) and some one really ought to tell him!

I think there is a Newport Beach in California,if that helps...

Anonymous, i agree, his dress sense leaves a lot to be desired, but since he is the one with the talent, (and i, only in my wildest dreams, can aspire to the minutest fraction of that)you have to grudgingly admit that sartorial style is but a secondary consideration to this wizard.
