These music posts are a bit more quirky. Some UK artists you may
not know about plus stuff I just
play if I'm feeling a
bit homesick.
So this is the decade when Bill & Lindsay got serious about moving
to England...No point for me to post a bunch of Beyonce, Diddy,
Ed Sherran or Taylor Swift—you know all of that.
YES! Bill is involved with music again...
I have included two films that I recommend but, inthe interst of full disclosure, Bill does have a financial interst in one and the second os family
(Sort of)
Some of you know that I am involved in a Hollywood film. My co-producer is Kim Zubick and The Zookeepers Wife is her
most recent film.
I knew Scott O'Malley, who drew the Scott Pilgrim graphic novels,from a time when he was
married to a fringe family
member. Unfortunately, it didn't work oput but it is a fun fi;m.
No hockey in I, Tonya but it does have ice in it—think you can land a triple axle?
Our little village is way cool with talented music people and Brit film folks hanging out here. Every year they have a Festival of Literature and this year, I was asked to help select the musicas they wanted to attract a younger crowd (I know, that's wierd!). J had to go with mostly singer-songwritert ypes but if you are in the neighborhood, I'll buy you a beer.
So how did I do?
