Behold! The God of Hellfire (aka Arthur Brown) sent me four more hand-painted, autographed stage masks! These photos are about as close as I get to a selfie.
In case you don’t know, Arthur is widely considered the godfather of “shock rock,” having been cited as a singular influence by luminaries such as Alice Cooper, KISS, David Bowie (yes, really), and Marilyn Manson. Arthur’s signature song “Fire” (a huge international hit in 1968) features him donning a burning helmet on stage. He also essentially invented “space rock” and helped shape prog rock with his band Kingdom Come.
Off stage, though, he is mild-mannered, funny, kind, and brimming with intelligence. I know firsthand because he and his partner/manager Claire met me for dinner last year. No joke! We spent nearly six hours chatting about spirituality, music, food, and animals. It was one of the best nights of my life. Apparently I’m the only “fan” (I’m not a fan of the word “fan”) he’s ever met in such a context. I was supremely honored!

@RMachman Naturally!
That is very kind and generous of him.

@cordsandthreads He is supremely, gloriously unique. We probably would have spent even more time together, but the staff at the restaurant essentially kicked us out!
He has sent me dozens of cool things, including several signed/dedicated albums…

@ave_omnibus Glad that it is looking better. It's still overcast with rain and snow. We are getting a cold damp start to Spring Equinox. Enjoy!

@ave_omnibus Nice. Thanks for sharing your view, it's raining here.

@cordsandthreads It was a lovely view from a parking lot. I think that’s Venus peeking through the bands of color on the horizon.

@mikebro65302392 No. It can be a positive sign, like the future is your own, like having a clean slate, your path is open.
