So I think we all can tell who my fav is LOL

Anyway I've had so much fun drawing the boys. Peter was fucking DIFFICULT though. I think it's because in my brain he's this soft squishy little jello but irl he's actually got sharp features, lol. BUT ANYWAYYYY Nez was easily the most relaxing to draw. Something about those eyes. Mm.

Good morning. 🌊🐚🦐

23 May 2024

This is the way we start our day, early in the morning. ☕

"I thought love was only true in fairy tales Meant for someone else but not for me Love was out to get me That's the way it seemed Disappointment haunted all of my dreams

Then I saw her face, now I'm a believer Not a trace of doubt in my mind I'm in love I'm a believer, I couldn't leave her if I tried" - Niel Diamond

Did you know that Neil Diamon wrote I'm a believer performed by The Monkees? I didn't until now. When I was a youngster, I watched their children's show. Sadly, only Micky Dolenz is still living.

When you don't see someone for over 50 years, you halfway expect them to look like you remember, they don't.

"Never hold discussions with the monkey when the organ grinder is in the room." - Winston Churchill

Micky Dolenz and I in East Haddam, CT. He grew his beard out for his role as King Charlemagne in Pippin at the Goodspeed Opera House.

n the year 1967, there was a group that outsold every other artist in the music business. It wasn't The Beatles. It wasn't The Beach Boys. It wasn't The Rolling Stones. And it definitely wasn't Gary Puckett & the Union Gap. No, it was The Monkees! Even though they had the derisive nickname of "The Prefab Four" -- a reference to the group being assembled solely for the purposes of their TV show -- their music was good, not to mention extremely popular. Classics like I'm a Believer, Last Train to Clarksville, and Daydream Believer have held up well over time. We only wish we could say the same about the group itself. Sadly, Micky Dolenz is the only remaining Monkee, but he is proudly carrying on the legacy. Speaking at a recent panel devoted to the group at Gallatin Comic Con, Dolenz talked about the immediate chemistry that he, Davy Jones, Mike Nesmith, and Peter Tork had once they'd been selected for the group

Butch Patrick Live on Game Changers with Vicki Abelson

What a fun chat with Butch Patrick, aka Eddie Munster, who’s warm,  easy and so comfortable in his skin that it’s impossible to not feel like an old friend coming home. Butch makes everyone in his path feel seen, heard, and important. What a gift. 

We talked about current events… living in Arkansas, his Munster Mobiles, getting out and meeting his fans, his girlfriend, how they met, and how they keep it going. And we went back… how a 7 yr old got his start in film, had a career in TV, and at the age of 10, a starring role on one of the most iconic and endearing television shows of all time. Thank goodness Bill Mumy took a pass. There are no accidents. This was Butch’s path. 

We talked Fred Gwynne, Al Lewis, Yvonne De Carlo, The Cowsills, and The Monkees, and his amazing episode and time shooting with them at the height of all of their fame. 

There were crazy days and trouble. Pot, booze, and drugs, and then, 13 years ago, getting sober. Butch’s ease and commitment to his sobriety, and helping others. It’s a beautiful thing.  

The upside of the pandemic is that it led the way to interview celebrity gems who live far away. I hope one day to meet Butch in the reals and feel his great energy sans a screen between us, but I’m grateful as hell for these opportunities to spend time getting to know this once boy who gave this girl so much childhood joy, and as a man, moves through the world with so much kindness and grace.
