GOOD TOPICS: BLESSING OF THE FLEET

PHILIP HOARE'S AUSTRALIA

Philip Hoare's latest dispatch from his on-going- world- wide- book- tour for The Whale. See the interview below regarding his work and travels. T- Shirt look familiar?

THE CABINS OF STURTEVANT FALLS

Just outside Pasadena, there is a place called Sturtevant Falls, where old cabins from the '49 goldrush are maintained and situated at the waterfall that rushes through the valley there. I took a cloudy Sunday afternoon to find them the last time I was out West. No gold, though.

WATSON ATKINSON FOR THE CAFE REVIEW

Local renegade tattoo artist Watson Atkinson recently designed the cover for ptld literary journal the Cafe Review. Needless to say Watson does more than tattoo.

LOST IN MUIR FOREST

I've just returned home to Maine after several weeks out West showing the new collection. My last day there I went into the redwoods (first time ever) with good friends Jay Carroll and Cory Heenan. Jay posted our adventure on One Trip Pass; check it out here

WINTER 2006 LOOKBOOK

THE BROWNFIELD HAWK

Found outside the public library in Brownfield, Maine.

THE SILENT BARN

An art space/punk house somewhere in Brooklyn... I finally found this place the last time I was in town. Just so happens Litergy was playing their homecoming show there that night, and I was lucky enough not to miss it.

THE GREAT REPUBLIC

PHILIP HOARE FOR PTLDME

When Philip Hoare came to town recently, we took him around and showed him some of our favorite spots. Philip had his camera on him and has shared with us his view of our little city from that day. He's still on the road reading from his book The Whale, so keep your eyes open for more contributions from afar from our new friend Philip. In the meantime, you can listen to him on NPR here

OBSESSION: TED LUCAS

There is not much out there on Ted Lucas, but if you are ever fortunate enough to come across his out of print self titled record, be sure to grab it. If you can't get your hands on it, come by 41 Wharf St, I'll be playing it til' summer comes.
