on a side note, this here little blog got some national exposure by the fine folks at wired magazine, which i am of a fan of anyway, for my earlier post in the day regarding beatnik filmstars. thanks eliot!
I can’t agree with you more. Anders is a gifted soul and a gift to our world.
About a year and a half later, I write this and he’s on tour for his new, self-titled, album.
His website’s working great now: http://www.andersparker.com.
