Musician, composer, artist all those thing that will keep me safely from retirement. I’ve also been working in television for over 45 years. Needless to say I also love films. And I love a good laugh.
Saw a great show last Wednesday night. All electronic music... So great! And an unexpected treat for those of us in Minot who love new music. My friend Aaron Davis was there performing under the band name Spiritual Exit. Here is a link to his Bandcamp. spiritualexit.bandcamp.com

Why is it all the really good gay coming of age films come from Europe? They treat the subject with such honesty. I just saw Young Hearts tonight. It had me remembering so much about what that was like when I was a kid. Yes, I cried because that's what I do now days.

I was out testing an older camera with a 30mm lens and ran across this little gathering in Minot, North Dakota. Enjoy.

Have you ever run across a song that you end up playing multiple times in a row because it really touched you in some way? This may be one of the best songs I've heard about being gay.
Man, I wish a feeling like this would happen for real...

I've wanted to do a painting like this in quite a while. It's pretty minimal compared to most of my other work. It's inspired by a photo I took of a friend back in 1979. I'm pretty happy with the results so more is on the way.

Body image is a continual problem for gay and straight people but it’s probably more prevalent in the gay community. I have experienced this my whole life. When I came out I thought I would find my people but I didn’t. Body image? Maybe. This is worth a watch. youtu.be/aLysnTlTkSg?...

Maybe I should start loading up some favorite pics… This is one from my Minneapolis trip last September taken by my friend Kevin…

This being my first post here I thought I’d post something I’m really happy with that I hope you enjoy. It’s a video I made of a trip I took last September. I directed, edited and wrote music for it. I also had a lot of help from friends who you will meet in the video.
