Fake New Year's Resolution #3

TO GROW MY SIDE BURNS AS LONG AS TREVOR BOLDER c. 1972

Trevor Bolder was born in Hull UK on 9th June 1950. Bolder learned the trumpet at age nine and played this instrument as well as bass on Hunky Dory (1971). He was a cornet soloist with his school band for three years, then began playing bass guitar, and with his brother, formed the Chicago Star Blues Band. He then worked with various bands such as Jelly Roll and Flesh. In 1968 he founded the band Ronno with Mick Ronson. In the late 1960s he also did session jobs for the likes of Lulu.

damn,
I have not shaved my sideburns in
27 years....completely that is.
I keep them neat. The only time they sort of got unruly was when there was this character on 91210 that sort of made sideburns popular again in the mid-90s. I grew mine down to my neck but that was it.I want proof that his originated right below the temple. GG

Review: Macbeth

Macbeth by William Shakespeare My rating: 4 of 5 stars Four and a half stars, with one major flaw: the producers chose to do this funny little trick of overlaying Cumming's voices when he was multiple characters, namely three weird sisters when they spoke at once. The result was echo-y and distracting. Otherwise, the whole thing felt like the smartest guy in the neighborhood inviting you over to listen to him read, and you cared: knew the story and really wanted to hear how he delivered. It was intimate and rewarding. It also made me think about how it is a story of Scots and English. View all my reviews

Review: King Henry VI, Part 2

King Henry VI, Part 2 by William Shakespeare My rating: 5 of 5 stars I have just now gotten to part 2 of the Henry VI plays. the first had amazing speeches and frickin' Joan of Arc and I thought it couldn't get any better. THAN this one's got conjurors who evoke prophetic specters, multiple beheadings, and a mad rebel named Cade who just starts to try to take over the whole country, no Empire for like no good reason then gets killed after hiding ten days without food in a hedgegrove. The language is extraordinary from the get go where pious Henry says, "O Lord, that lends me life, Lend me a heart replete with thankfulness!" I am going to make that my motto! View all my reviews
