Peter Max 2007

Here is a close-up of the banner on stage, taken by my Aiko brother's wonder-son. The performer is Essra Mohawk, who had the good fortune to play music with Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention in the late 1960's.

I always looked forward to meeting PM and he had a show in Sausalito at a gallery a few yrs before I left. He was slouching pretty bad (wasn't drunk!) and had such an attitude. And that was what I saw from a distance. Needless to say, I never did say anything to him. Guess there are just some people who are too big for their britches, or he was having a bad day, in which he should have simply stayed away.

Yikes, sorry for the rant, nice photo and it must've been a fun day! ; ) Cheers!

sometimes it's better to have the image of a well-known person in your head, because the real-life version can be a let down, to say the least. i have found this to be true, in several instances.
