i smiled as i stared out to the crowd, sweat glistening my body.

“okay guys, we’re gonna do something a little bit different tonight. this is dedicated to my wonderful boyfriend, happy one year wes.” i spoke into the microphone.

the crowd cheered as i smiled brightly. i turned around to look at my band mates, nodding at them. they began playing and everyone instantly started to scream out. we were doing a cover of ‘love song’ by the cure. i gave a quick glance to the side and came into eye contact with wes. i smile softly at him before singing.

‘whenever i’m alone with you

you make me feel like i am home again..’

memories of wes and i flashed through my mind as i sung. wes always understood me, more than anyone in my life.

‘whenever i’m alone with you

you make me feel like i am young again

whenever i’m alone with you

you make me feel like i am fun again, again’

~flashback~

i sat on a park bench, staring at the water glisten in the sun. next to me sat my wonderful boyfriend, wes. he was watching the water too, playing with my hand that he’s holding.

“i love you, you know.” he blurts out.

i was taken aback by his sudden words. he always blurts out ‘i love you’s but adding ‘you know’ made me nervous.

“yeah, of course. i love you too. what’s up?”

he fully turned to me, taking both my hands into his own.

“i love you so fucking much, so so so much more than you think. i always think about you every second of my day and i hate being away from you. so to get to the point, my question is…do you wanna move in with me?”

my stomach immediately bursted with butterflies as a giant smile appeared on my face.

“yes!”

he laughed before bringing me into a deep kiss, one full of passion. he pulled away and hugged me so tight.

~flashback over~

‘however far away, i will always love you

however long i stay, i will always love you

whatever words i say, i will always love you

i will always love you’

i sung those words as i made straight eye contact with wes, making it known that they were for him and only him. we played a couple more songs before we ended our set. i ran up to wes who immediately took me into his arms. i rested my face into the crook of his neck as he spun us around. i giggled at the action, earning a giggle from him as well.

“i love you so fucking much..” he pulled away and whispered.

“i love you so much too.”

“so fucking much?”

“so fucking much.”

he locked lips and a tiny spark was felt, igniting something in my stomach and between my legs. he could sense it too because once he pulled away he gave me a look. i bit my lip as he took my hand and led us to his dressing room. he shoved us inside and made sure to lock the door (cause last time he forgot chloe walked in on us. poor girl was scarred..). he turned to me and grabbed my face, placing a kiss onto my smooshed lips.

“i wanna make love to you..” he breathed out.

“you gotta make it fast…you’re on soon.”

“they can wait.”

he started to slowly take off my shirt, tossing it to the floor. i took off his shirt as well but i placed it neatly on a suitcase. we undressed each other until we were fully naked.

“god you’re always so beautiful. like an glowing angel.” i blush at his words.

he began to press kissing to my shoulders, making sure to kiss every inch of my skin. he worked his way down to my boobs, to which he only peppered soft kisses on. he grabbed onto my hips and led us to the couch, gently laying us down. he continued his kisses as i giggled at the feeling of his lip ring.

“wesss…we can’t be long.” i whine out, grabbing a handful of his gel slicked hair.

“very impatient, baby.” he smirked as he used a hand to pump himself.

wes and i never made love before so i was incredibly nervous. i know it’s sex (which we’ve had many times) but it’s different. the mood and feeling is what changes it.

“you ready?”

“mhm.”

he kept eye contact with me as he pushed himself in. i let out a soft moan and fluttered my eyelids shut. he began to thrust slowly which felt agonizing compared to the speeds i know he could go. he brought our lips together again, tenderly kissing me. he kept one hand on my hip and slowly guided me along to his thrusts. his fingertips pressed onto my skin harshly as he moved me. he pulled away from my lips and rested his forehead onto mine. we listened to each other’s breathing, feeling the love grow through our veins.

“i love you, y/n..” he whispered.

“i love you too, wes..” i pecked his lips.

the hand that was on my hip slowly traveled up my body and to my boobs. he slowly started to massage my right one, being so gentle with it. he adjusted himself which gave him easier access to hitting that one spot. i gasp out at the new feeling and grab onto his shoulders. i dug my fingernails into his skin, probably drawing a little blood. the atmosphere in the room felt sensual, hot and heavy but not in the usual way. i smile a bit to myself as i realize the man i love is making love to me. his lips found the sweet spot on my neck and began lightly sucking on it. i moaned out at the feeling and clenched around him. it didn’t take long so far that certain feeling to arise in my stomach.

“wes…”

“i know..i know baby..” he peppers kisses on my neck.

i tilt my head back to give him more access. it was already known that i had wes’ body paint all over me, his most definitely smudged.

“i’m so close, wes…please..” i whine out.

“go ahead, baby..” he mumbles against my lips.

i gasp out as i came all over him, eyes screwed shut. i arched my back, wes taking a chance to wrap his arm around my body to bring me closer to him. he didn’t even think twice as he came inside me, groaning out against my neck. my hot breath fanning onto my skin.

“i…love…you…” he said in between kisses that he left on my lips.

“oh no, your makeup is smudged!” i gasp out, reaching out to touch his paint.

“wanna help me fix it?”

“duh.” i laugh.

he helps clean me up and helps me put my clothes back on. he sat at his desk and i sat on his lap, fixing up the black paint.

“hey so, i wanted to talk to you about something.” his tone serious.

i clear my throat and shifted in his lap, letting him know i’m listening. i nodded to encourage him to continue. he instead grabbed my hips and helped me off of him so he could walk to his bag.

“i’ve been wanting to talk about this for a while..and since today is our one year i think it’s a perfect time.”

his back was to me as he held whatever he grabbed.

“what is it, babe?”

before he could turn around and talk, fred came pounding on the door.

“yo wes! hurry up with your guys’ fucking, we’re on soon!”

i heard wes mumble something before putting away the item.

“i guess another time then.” he chuckles.

i smile and nod as he approached me.

“you gonna watch us?”

“of course, let me just wipe your makeup off and i’ll be out there.”

“okay, see you soon.” he presses a soft kiss to my lips before leaving.

a part of me wanted to check his bag to see the item but i ignored that thought and went to grab a wipe to clean myself up.

Great Guitarists 100 - Graham Coxon, Jonny Greenwood, Stuart Braithwaite, and Wes Borland [CROSSBEAT (November 2009)]

Graham Coxon The reason why Blur, who have never announced their break-up, have been said to have 'reunited' is that his presence in Blur and in the UK in the 1990s was too great. He was a maniacal noise-obsessive himself, even using an electric drill when recording "Modern Life Is Rubbish", but the resulting riffs were terrifyingly poppy. The revolution of the 90s was that guitar heroes were no longer required to have technique, and Graham Coxon's ability to turn everything upside down with his unique sense of time and phrasing was one of the centrepieces of the Britpop era. As a visibly literate and nerdy guitar hero, he may well be one of the first. This year, he continues to be active with his latest solo album and touring with the original members of Blur. -Hitoshi Sugiyama

Selected Albums "Modern Life Is Rubbish" (1993, photo) Blur "Parklife" (1994)

Jonny Greenwood A child prodigy who learned to play the cello and viola from an early age and was once awarded a prize for 'contribution to the development of music at our school' when he was at the prestigious Abingdon School. He has been a key member of Radiohead's predecessor band On A Friday from the time of the band to the present day, playing a central role in the band's sound. In his early work, his guitar playing was rather straightforward, with a strong influence from grunge/alternate rock bands such as Sonic Youth, Pixies, and Dinosaur Jr, but from "OK Computer" onwards, he actively introduced all styles of music, including classical, avant-garde and dance music. He began to play experimental sounds using various effectors, such as whammy, which makes the pitch of the guitar rise and fall to extreme levels. He has always regarded the guitar as a means of expression, which is why he is able to create unique and original sounds. -Takanori Kuroda

Representative albums "The Bends" (1995) Radiohead "OK Computer" (1997, photo)

Stuart Braithwaite From flowing arpeggios to raging feedback. Mogwai's dynamic soundscapes, which move back and forth between "stillness" and "movement", are the product of a flawless ensemble. The band is built on a perfect balance that cannot be created by any one person being left out, but what really stands out (including their looks) is the guitar playing of Stuart Braithwaite, who is also the leader of the band. His sound, influenced by My Bloody Valentine, Sonic Youth, hardcore, and heavy metal, is the cornerstone of the band. He mainly uses a Fender Telecaster and a Gibson SG, with a very conventional amp. However, there are more than a dozen different types of effectors, from distortion to spatial systems, and he switches between them (and sometimes steps on them all!), creating that high-density guitar noise. -Takanori Kuroda

Representative albums "Mogwai Young Team" (1997, photo) Mogwai "Come On Die Young" (1999)

Wes Borland The 90s saw the crossover between rock and hip-hop go from strength to strength. Guitarists had their work cut out for them. How on earth do you bridge the gap between the two? Wes Borland's answer to that question was to stick to riffs. The riff, a traditional rock technique, is treated like a sampling loop in hip-hop. In doing so, he arrived at a method that blends the two well. But for this to happen, every riff had to be catchy. He used every means possible to achieve this. The techniques are diverse, including heavy riffs with drop tuning, arpeggio riffs utilising delays, and simple riffs with only two notes. Although his eccentric looks tend to attract attention, he is in fact one of the leading riff masters of our time. -Junya Shimofusa

“Another Hallmark movie?”

The two of you are sitting on the couch, enjoying a Christmas movie marathon. It’s been a long week for both of you, full of chaos and obligations. It’s nice to finally unwind. What’s even nicer, though, is the fake look of annoyance on Wes’s face.

You can’t help but smirk.

“You know you like them,” you tease. “Come on. Guess the plot of this one.”

Wes looks at the screen, listening to the cheery music that plays over the scenery of snowfall and Christmas trees. It’s a lot like the last one the two of you watched.

“Let me think,” he starts. “Girl comes back to her hometown for Christmas. Falls in love with some guy."

You grin. "Okay," you agree. "Go on, keep going."

Wes hums to himself, considering the plots of all the movies the two of you had watched that night.

"There’s some cheesy scene with them kissing under the mistletoe,” he continues. "Tooth rottingly sweet. Am I forgetting anything?"

“You forgot the part about how she’s become a city girl,” you point out. “And he’s a country boy.”

Wes laughs. “God, how could I forget about that?”

“And,” you continue, “they’re old flames. Highschool sweethearts.

“Oh, naturally.”

Wes stretches a little, his sweater riding up just enough that your eyes linger a little longer than necessary. You can’t help yourself. But the night is still young, and there’s plenty of time to act on those impulses.

“I’m gonna check on the cookies,” Wes says then, getting up from his place on the couch. The two of you had had the idea of making the little Christmas Tree sugar cookies tonight. And with the smell that’s filling the house right now? It’s hitting you how good of an idea that was.

“Okay,” you reply, grinning. “But, hey, if they’re done, don’t steal any. I’ll know.”

Wes rolls his eyes playfully before disappearing into the kitchen. You watch as your cat steals his spot on the couch, immediately plopping down. You reach out and scratch down her back. She arches into it, purring.

Earlier, you and Wes had a discussion about what you wanted for Christmas. And… well, honestly? This is all you wanted. To spend time with Wes, as cheesy as that sounds. Nothing fancy, just the two of you (and the cat), uninterrupted. You couldn’t ask for anything more.

The cookies are definitely an added bonus, though.

“Hey, (y/n)?” You hear Wes call from the kitchen, bringing you back to reality. “Can you help me with something?”

Help him with something? You’re definitely not opposed, but what could he need help with? “Yeah,” you reply. “Hang on. I’ll be there in a second.”

You get up from the couch and make your way into the kitchen. At first, you’re not really sure what you expected. You’re immediately greeted by the sight of Wes standing in the doorway to the kitchen, a shit-eating grin on his face. You nearly ask what’s going on before something catches your eye.

When you look up, you see it.

Mistletoe.

“Oh my god,” you laugh. Is he serious? “You’re so cheesy.”

Wes laughs at that. Clearly, this is the reaction he expected. “What? You don’t like it?”

… Well.

“I didn’t say that."

And at that, Wes kisses you. Maybe he intended it to be a little peck, maybe not. Either way, the kiss lingers. You kiss him back, suddenly overwhelmed by how cute this is. Wes is always surprising you. And as cheesy as he can be sometimes, you love it.

When the two of you finally break apart, Wes looks down at you and grins. Clearly, he's proud of himself. And... well. He should be.

"You're so cheesy," you say again, laughing. "Like a damn Hallmark movie."

"Oh yeah?"

"Yeah," you reply. And at that, you wrap your arms around his waist and kiss him again.

This is turning out to be the best Christmas ever.

“The Peter Tork you saw on Top Of The Pops last week was, to use his own words, ‘My public image.’ The zany goon-like character was in top TV form as he clowned his way through 30 minutes of semi-chaos […]. Some accused him of acting, and he admitted of course that he was. That was what people excepted him to do. But the Peter Tork who peacefully sat cross-legged on a table in a small room at Decca’s Regent Street offices was Peter Tork, no acting, no clowning — just a singularly intelligent young man with a surprisingly (when you think of the TV character) wide vocabulary. ‘I don’t know why it is. I just seem to have been born with a large vocabulary and now I’m stuck with it!’ [….] On more than one occasion, armed with his own camera, he turned the tables on unsuspecting photographers, most of whom didn’t really appreciate the subtlety of the Tork sarcasm.” - Disc and Music Echo, January 13, 1968

“He sat cross-legged on the Big Executive Desk, surveying us all with confidence but occasionally giving himself away by tearing nervously at one of his multi-colored moccasins. Around his neck he wore beads ('I like them’) and his bearded face smiled the most when he was asked questions about fans, shaving, or the fringed handbag around his waist. Peter Tork was meeting the Press — not the zany stumbler from the Monkees’ series, or the fellow you saw teeny-bopping around your ‘Top Of The Pops’ screen last Thursday. This was a gentle and articulate Monkee who talked like a Websters’ Dictionary.” - Alan Smith, NME, January 13, 1968

“In fact I arrived at London Airport completely unannounced and was able to walk around the city for three days completely unnoticed. I visited ‘Granny Takes A Trip,’ ‘Apple’ and the ‘Speakeasy’ and I found them all very good. In fact the juggler’s shirt I’m wearing was bought at Apple.” - Peter Tork, Disc and Music Echo, January 13, 1968

“Peter Tork, while living up to the TV legend, is straightforward, friendly and very human. […] [H]e thoughtfully tugged his sun-streaked brown hair, which erupts from his mobile face and slides down the slender stem of his neck in a silken flow, only to find its exit to the shoulders cut off abruptly by the stylist’s scissors. He has almost always the look of patient resignation worn under the make-up of great clowns, and his face arranges itself into any number of humorous attitudes with the ease of a bendy doll… screwed up like an unwanted love letter or innocent as a boy accused of scrumping apples. His mouth is soft and sweet, and there is both shrewdness and kindness in his small, searching eyes. […] He winced when a reporter opened his question with ‘we’re honored to have you here,’ and on being informed that ‘your banjo-playing was for many of us the highlight of your concerts here,’ he murmured a quick ‘that’s very kind of you’ and brushed off the questioner. Compliments wash against him like so much spray on a cliff-face. […] The conference broke up with requests for autographs all around, and for the first time, Peter seemed genuinely touched by this subtle flattery. My last sight of him was a smiling figure signing autographs for fans in the rain, each one with a ‘Love from Peter Tork’ and a flower. And the sweet smell from the joss stick smoldering in his hand was still with me as I walked away.” - June Southworth, Fabulous 208, January 17, 1968

“‘We thought the present shows were losing their impetus. They were getting harder to act. We felt yoked by the plots. We want our shows to be fun, simple… but inventive, fresh and interesting. Did you see “Magical Mystery Tour”? Did you like it? Good. That’s what we like. We could not do more shows like those in the past. We must go as far afield as possible… on the lines of “Magical Mystery Tour.”’ […] Peter also revealed that in the future he hopes to concentrate more on folk music, particularly on the Monkees’ forthcoming albums.” - NME, January 13, 1968

Additional photos from the press reception, and Peter looking through entries from fans for NME's Monkee Faces contest. (More photos from that occasion here.)

During his time in London, Peter also wrote "Long Title..." (read more here), was a guest presenter on Top Of The Pops, and took part in recording sessions for George Harrison's Wonderwall Music, playing banjo (more about that here).

Founders of New York's Francis Irv Gallery Take on the Dallas Invitational

Earlier this month, dealers flocked to the heart of Texas for the Dallas Art Fair.

Despite nearly being attacked by a rogue collector there last year, I was sad to not be in attendance this time.

Suffice to say, it’s always lively.

To find out what I was missing, I asked my friends Sam Marion Wilken and Shane Rossi, who run the scrappy new Manhattan gallery Francis Irv, to take some photos while they exhibited at a satellite fair, the Dallas Invitational.

Let’s see what they got up to… —Annie Armstrong

For more: Wilson Home Improvement Costume

So grab your tool belt and power up those creative juices because it’s time to transform yourself into everyone’s favorite insightful neighbor. Let’s get started on bringing some nostalgic laughs.

The History Behind Tim

Fans of the hit 90s sitcom “Home Improvement” will fondly remember Tim Taylor, the lovable and bumbling host of the fictional show “Tool Time.” Played by the talented actor Tim Allen, Tim Taylor became a household name for his hilarious mishaps and catchy catchphrases.

Tim’s character was inspired by creator Matt Williams’ own experiences with home improvement projects gone awry. The character embodied the quintessential handyman who always had big dreams but often found himself in over his head. From exploding lawnmowers to disastrous kitchen remodels, Tim’s misadventures never ceased to entertain audiences.

Throughout its eight-season run from 1991 to 1999, “Home Improvement” showcased not only comedic moments but also touched on relatable family dynamics. Despite his frequent blunders in DIY projects, Tim’s dedication to his wife Jill and their three sons showed that there was more to him than just being a tool enthusiast.

Tim’s on-screen chemistry with co-host Al Borland added another layer of humor to the show. Their banter and contrasting personalities created countless unforgettable moments that still resonate with fans today.

While “Home Improvement” may have ended over two decades ago, its legacy lives on through syndication and fan appreciation. Dressing up as Tim Taylor for Halloween or costume parties is a way for fans young and old to pay homage to this iconic TV character.

So whether you’re donning a plaid shirt tucked into your jeans or sporting a tool belt full of gadgets, channeling your inner Tim Taylor is sure to bring laughter and nostalgia at any event. Just be sure not to take any power tools too seriously.

Creating the Perfect DIY Wilson Home Improvement Costume

If you’re a fan of the hit 90s sitcom “Home Improvement,” chances are you have a soft spot for the lovable character, Wilson. With his sage advice and iconic fence peeking, he’s an unforgettable part of the show. So why not pay homage to this beloved neighbor by creating your own DIY Wilson Home Improvement costume?

First things first – let’s talk about that signature look. To recreate Wilson’s style, start with a plaid button-up shirt paired with khaki pants and comfortable brown shoes. Adding a straw hat is essential for capturing his laid-back vibe.

Now, onto the most crucial element – the fence! You can easily make your own version using cardboard or foam board painted to resemble wood. Attach it securely to a headband or tie it around your neck with string for easy we arability throughout the night.

To complete your transformation into Wilson, don’t forget about his trusty gardening tools. Carry around a small trowel or hand rake as a prop to add an extra touch of authenticity.

Remember, while dressing up as Wilson is fun on its own, fully embodying his character takes some practice. Don’t be afraid to channel Tim Allen’s grunting noises and use some of Tim Taylor’s classic catchphrases like “More power!” or “I don’t think so, Tim.”

And if you want to take it one step further and turn this into a group costume idea, invite your friends to dress up as other characters from Home Improvement! Whether someone goes as Jill Taylor in her handywoman attire or Mark in his goth phase – there are plenty of options to choose from!

So grab your tool belt and get ready for some DIY Halloween fun! With just a little creativity and imagination, you’ll be able to create an authentic Wilson Home Improvement costume that will surely impress fellow fans at any party.

Incorporating Key Accessories for Authenticity

When it comes to creating the perfect Wilson Home Improvement costume, paying attention to the details is essential. One way to really nail the authenticity of your costume is by incorporating key accessories that are synonymous with Tim Taylor and his beloved TV show.

Start off by finding a sturdy tool belt that you can wear around your waist. This will not only make you look like a true handyman but also provide a practical place to store some of your tools. Look for one in leather or canvas material for an extra touch of realism.

Next, don’t forget about the iconic safety goggles that Tim often wore while working on his projects. These can easily be found at any hardware store or online retailer. Make sure they fit comfortably and securely on your face so you can channel Tim’s DIY spirit with ease.

To further enhance your costume, consider adding a baseball cap emblazoned with the ��Binford Tools” logo – Tim’s go-to brand for power tools on the show. This small detail will instantly tie your outfit together and let everyone know you’re part of Team Taylor.

And let’s not overlook one crucial accessory – don’t forget to bring along some props! Carry around a fake tool or two, such as a wrench or hammer, just like Tim always had within arm’s reach during his hilarious mishaps.

Tips for Nailing Tim Taylor’s Signature Grunting and Catchphrases:

1. Embrace the Grunt: One of Tim Taylor’s most recognizable traits is his signature grunt. To truly embody his character, practice your own version of the “Arghh-arghh” sound he frequently makes when things don’t go as planned. It might feel silly at first, but it adds an extra touch of authenticity to your costume.

2. Master the Catchphrases: Tim Taylor has a repertoire of catchphrases that have become synonymous with his character on Home Improvement. From “More power!” to “I don’t think so, Tim,” these phrases are essential for capturing the essence of his personality. Practice delivering them with confidence and enthusiasm to really bring your costume to life.

3. Study His Mannerisms: Pay attention to how Tim Taylor carries himself on the show. He often uses exaggerated gestures and facial expressions to emphasize his points or showcase comedic moments. Incorporate some of these mannerisms into your portrayal, whether it’s a dramatic hand gesture or a playful smirk.

4. Don’t Overdo It: While it’s important to capture Tim Taylor’s grunts and catchphrases accurately, remember not to overdo it. Balance is key – sprinkle in those iconic elements throughout the night without overwhelming everyone around you.

5. Have Fun with Improvisation: As much as you want to emulate Tim Taylor, remember that part of what made him such a beloved character was his ability to improvise and be spontaneous in hilarious ways! Feel free to add your own comedic twist or one-liners inspired by him.

How to Get Your Friends Involved in a Group Home Improvement Costume

Getting your friends involved in a group Home Improvement costume can make the experience even more enjoyable and memorable. Plus, it’s always fun to coordinate outfits with your buddies! Here are some tips on how to get everyone excited and on board.
