Have I ever told you how much I ADORE your writing? Well, I do.
I used to walk up and down on the West Side Highway in the late 1970s, when I was an Engineering (sadly, not Art) student at Cooper Union, and living in Mahattan. I remember WSH as abandoned, devoid of car traffic in those days.
I totally get what you mean in your last sentence, too. My son and I are huge fans of a band called Brian Jonestown Massacre. When we went to see them play live several years back, I will admit that one of the "draws" was the prospect of seeing leader Anton Newcombe berate his fellow band members. And he did not disappoint -- he was savage in his comments to the drummer that night.

Thank you, Paul!
By the way, "Brian Jonestown Massacre" is an amazing band name.
If you get a moment, try listening to BJM's song "Open Heart Surgery" ... it's one of my favorites.
Oooh. Good song. Heartrending.
