Sam Jayne sticker on the fence of the Williamsburg Bridge, and in the background is the sunset over Manhattan.
Wishing more than ever that Sam Jayne was here to celebrate his birthday with us, playing a guitar in shark pants or waking everybody up with coffee and trying to get their asses to the beach with him so we can listen to music and float on inflatable pizzas. Hug all your friends and play music today

Still thinking about this Grateful Dead Acoustic Reckoning set from Thursday night at The Cap. Second time seeing Gillian Welch, David Rawlings, and Paul Kowert in less than a year and I hope I get to see them many more times. Actual magic.
A very large skeleton dressed as the Easter bunny in a Brooklyn front yard. Appears to have a carrot.
I love my neighborhood. Last week this skeleton was dressed like a Mets fan.
A black & white photograph that looks like a double-exposure but isn't, of a life-size plastic horse looking forlornly downward inside a storefront window, the the reflection of the sky, trees, power lines, clouds, and New England buildings

'A Demonstration' (1st new mix in a year) explores the spare pithiness and essential beauty of the "demo". Songs we love, revealed in embryonic form, but somehow already beautifully complete.

The empty theater in the Guggenheim, taken from close to the back. There’s a covered grand piano and a lap on stage. A sleek, metal art piece stands to the left, in an almost shark fin shape. There are few straight lines to be seen, and it’s a wash of beige and tan.
Rows of seats, starting from Row K. Design from a different time. Scallop shapes adorn the walls.
More of these perfect tan seats, above a literal slope of light brown carpeting.
I got to be in the empty Guggenheim theater today, and it ruled. I’ve never been lucky enough to see anything here, but it felt good to stand on the stage for a few moments.
Thank you!
A color film photo of a snow covered red elementary school, with snow covered branches flanking either side. All analog, all photos taken by me.
Crates of red and yellow tinged apples covered with snow at a farmers market.
An icy river, two bridges side by side stretching across it.
Red berries on snow covered branches, shallow depth of field.
Saying a slow goodbye to winter, as it finally warms up.
paper collage of tree roots and branches behind a womans arms resting on her knees covered by silver silk skirt. her ankles and feet are bare
fragmented invocation (paper collage on 3x5 cardstock)
The Crossword page from the New Yorker, and some very haphazard cursive to fill it all out.
Decided to be a lil agent of chaos and make a beginner’s New Yorker Crossword more hectic by doing it in cursive. ✏️👀
A black and white photograph of a jewelry store at night, a wall of necklaces and beads and pearls underneath a series of framed art on the left, and a hat stand in the darkness to the right. All photographs by me, Brianna DiGioia.
Three French style windows, fluorescent bars of light glowing inside. It is difficult to make out what’s inside of what is actually a building alongside McCarren Pool during offseason.
A deeply contrasted black and white photograph where freshly painted white walls have a break from their painted advertisements. Someone on a moped is zipping by, their silhouetted outline implies a helmet, and the light from their vehicle glows in a white circle.
Inside an analog photo booth, my reflection can be seen, my face obscured by my Minolta camera, in the glass that conceals the booth’s camera.
Black and white film, Brooklyn at night. 🖤
Lee Ranaldo and Michael Vallera at Union Pool, at the benefit for Jennifer Kelly.
Much love and healing and live music to you, @jenpkelly.bsky.social!
Three black and white film photographs on top of a turntable. The top photo is a 4x6 image of a snowy forest mountain scene, somewhere in California. The other two images are Polaroids. The one on the left is of a Subway performer, topless and muscled, appearing as if bowing, but actually they had just landed a backflip which I had been hoping to catch a little sooner. The Polaroid on the right is a photograph of a New Jersey street, a mural on one wall and a sign that says “PALACE DRUGS” on the face of a neighboring storefront.
Found a lot of nice little things today, film photos included.
Poster board is like .000001 on the Janka Hardness scale, that guy should not be proud of shit.
Well you’re leaving out the part where the sign was hand carved out of Bolivian Rosewood.
Yes, I think so, and also those tights are 🔥!
Second Friday the 13th in a row and the punishers are out.
A perfectly New York day making new friends, and now my first NYT photo byline. 🥹 Thank you, @kliakos.com and everybody involved who made some actual Brooklyn magic happen.
On LPR’s stage, the background projection art that reads Dan and Peggy Reeder with a bright and simple beach scene. It is signed D. Reeder.
The only Dan and Peggy Reeder show photo I snapped last night. Best singalong ever. Here’s their live album, out today, if you want even a fraction of the joy one feels in the room with them. music.youtube.com/playlist?lis...
