Here's a Photo that made Explore on Flickr, if any of you know what that means . . .

It's hard to explain the how, but just being there means it made it thru some sort of weird calculation of views, comments and favs, ect . . .

Anyway, this is Mike Jakob, co-owner of Elliott Street Deli and Pub on "Super Fat Tuesday" . . .

The Atlanta Photographers Guild Meets Every-Other-Tuesday at Elliott Street for our Model Shoots . . . This Weeks Meeting Was Also Super Fat Tuesday . . .

Elliott Street Deli and Pub is Located in The Castleberry Hill District of Atlanta . . . It is the old warehouse district and all the buildings are well over 100 years old . . .

It is an artist community, with a historical flavor . . .

Someone commented on the Frank Zappa painting, and this is a better version of it . . .

The artist who painted it lived in Castleberry Hill and was a brilliant artist . . .

A month after he painted this, he took his own life . . .

I Hate Suicide . . .

.

This one got buried . . .

Truly one of the greats of the 20th Century.

I'm the one that commented on the painting...THANKS for the better shot of the painting.

Zappa plays Zappa

See it when it comes to your town.

Is he still touring it?

Not right now.

Thanks DMV . . .

Jetblasted,

My how your talents have grown. Fantastic compostion.

Thom

P.S. That painting of Frank Zappa... his eyes are looking into a soul.

It helps to have a nice camera . . .

Wish I had the D300, though . . .

The Painting is Awesome . . .

The camera does help... with the mechanical part, but come on man, take a compliament will ya? No camera alone will make a compositon like that. That's really good.

If Zappa plays Zappa does come around to your area, I would very strongly suggest you see it. Great music from a great and under appreciated composer.

Also, one of the drummers, Joe Travers, used to work with me at a record store in Boston while he was still at the Berklee School of Music. He is also in charge of the large Zappa archives...no small task...

Thanks, Thom . . .

I appreciate it . . .

Zappa was a true genius.

I 2nd the Zappa plays Zappa show. Dweezil and the band are VERY good.

If they EVER decide to sell that...please let me know!

That looks like a painting done from the cover of Frank’s “The Yellow Shark” album.

Frank with always be Hipco . . . blow your harmonica son . . .

Zappa the greatest composer of the 20th Century...truly a genius...my hard drive on my car is full of Zappa. I have every recording I could ever find of him and still searching...

my username is in reference...

Also check out Project Object ... seen them several times...Awesome

he taught me not to eat that yellow snow.

I have Joes Garage on vinyl sealed..all 3 acts. Picked it up the day before I realized I should join the program and retire my turntable and start buying CD's. Was thinking the record set might be worth some good money someday.
