I hung the Palmer's show this morning... man I love that place. I haven't been there for over a year, I think... it doesn't change. I love the taxidermy fish... I think they make my art look better... and well, they give you a feel of what my paintings will look like hanging in your basement... next to your fish...
I used to spend a lot of time on the west bank... it wasn't that long ago that most of my weekends would wind up at one of the music venues along cedar avenue... or a few in the same night... but, on such evenings, all road lead to palmer's at night's end. we used to joke that it was a vortex... sucking you in... once you're there... you don't leave... it's true... but that's what I like about it... well, part of what i like about it.
everyone there (at 10am this morning)... really dug my art... and spent the entire time I was hanging stuff, guessing where each establishment was... "hey, where's palmers" one guy asked me... well, they bought that one last time I did a show here, I told him. the crowd there is always colorful and jolly. and... the guy at the end of the bar... is the same one that was there last time i was there. i am sure he leaves... but i sorta like to imagine that he lives there.
so, the opening has been rescheduled for September 21st. I am not sure yet what the music is that night... but I will find out and make an event/invite in the coming days...
work now... then hanging moxie salon tonight (st. Paul)...
whew!
