Be sure to see ‘Frankenstein’ from modern master Guillermo Del Toro when it hits theaters. A beautiful reinterpretation of the classic story. We were able to attend the Los Angeles premiere last night. @kristenklopez.bsky.social, lovely to meet you!

Remembering slain L.A.Times journalist Ruben Salazar who once said, ‘They don’t want the press to rock the boat. And I think it’s the press’s obligation to rock the boat.’

The War and Treaty blew the roof off of the Troubadour last night. This husband and wife duo sing rock, gospel, soul, country and funk. It was great see them in a super small venue. Check them out if you get a chance. ✊🏽🔥❤️🎸

We made a quick trip to San Francisco. We’re staying across the street from Union Square where scenes from Francis Ford Coppola’s ‘The Conversation’ starring Gene Hackman were filmed. We toasted Mr. Hackman and his epic body of work. R.I.P., sir. ✊🏽🔥❤️
