Tom Waits for no man

While cleaning out our car to try and find the receipt for a wedding gift (clock) we  needed to return so we could pay our dentist bill, Juicy Planet discovered instead a  ticket stub from a 2002 Tom Petty concert (Grand Rapids), a reddish piece of soft glass that did not want to be found, [...]

Laurie Anderson taught me to whisper through barbed-wire

Juicy Planet stared at the bottom of Laurie Anderson’s new red shoes, as Laurie talked about voice sampling with violins, Julien Schnabel films, what O Superman really means, and how birds had something to do with how human memory began. On the bottom of Laurie’s left shoe was a white, worn-down, rectangular price tag. Her [...]
