And with Sparkstember now over, here's my #calendarclub entry for October. @bsky.art

The October page for my Sparks calendar, featuring one of my digital collage pieces. The collage features Russell Mael in the classic black and white Pierrot costume with a ruched collar, white face and black mascara tears rolling down his cheek, standing in the middle of a black and white dancefloor with a solitary disco ball hanging from the ceiling. I like to think that if the Black Lodge had a dancefloor, it might look somewhat like this.

Can't stop thinking about how great the @sparksofficial concert was at The Fitz. We've been listening to Sparks music nonstop since then. If you haven't seen it, watch the Sparks Brothers documentary on netflix. You will fall in love with them, too.

Joy Division's Stephen Morris has said the band listened to a lot of Frank Sinatra and @SparksOfficial when preparing for "Love Will Tear Us Apart." Catch Sparks live @TheLincolnDC on Sept. 9 and personally experience why they've been so influential!

#5albums70s1 @sparksofficial Sparks - Propaganda (1974) Whilst not having the seminal shock and awe of Kimono, this follow-up was equally full of quirky brilliance. Never turn your back on the Brothers Mael. #NowPlaying

Into my top three songs this year, and it's time for @SparksOfficial. Really, this pick could be the entire 'The Girl Is Crying In Her Latte' album, but I've plumped for the life-affirming subtle tones of 'It Doesn't Have To Be That Way.' Why? Find out at tinyurl.com/2023x12

Does anyone know anything about Vive le Rock #117 with the Ramones on the cover? It has
@sparksofficial on the top banner. Someone on the allsparks.com forum was asking if it is worth ordering. This sounds familiar but my brain is mush.
