There are many murals painted on Tucson buildings and this is one of the latest--and one of my favorites! One of these days I'm going to plan and do a "mural tour".

 

Just good stuff

Nah, that was ET doing a high speed drive by…

 

Here is a little awesome story. One of my musician mate (I play with him for + 10 years in different bands) is a huge fan of all Seattle bands, especially "Pearl Jam".
During lockdown, he became really active on the "Pearl Jamily France" FB group. It's the french Pearl Jam fan club.
in October 2020, Alex my friend had the idea to cover a pearl jam song, with all fans recording with a phone a part of the song. He made the following video

In the comments, he noticed Dave Abbruzzese wrote something. Dave A was drummer of Pearl Jam on 2 albums (VS & Vitalogy).
My friend decided to write to Dave A. Then they communicated through skype. Here come the cool stuff.
Dave Abbruzzese agreed to record a drum part on Pearl Jam "Rearviewmirror" tune. D A was the drummer on the original recording. Then french (belgiar also) fans recorded their own stuff over.
Here is the result:


And now this video made a kind of buzz and some Rock website and magazine are talking about the story.

My mate never thought it would become such a thing.

Last bit on the story is US singer Joanna Connor wants to join the French Fan Club after she saw that video.

 

Brilliant what a cool story!

 

That's really cool! (And there's even a motorcycle and a horse in the video... )

 

And it goes on, Rolling Stone
