Profane Hippie!

 "'Anton was drinking, like, a gallon of vodka a day, and he wouldn't go to sleep, man. He was just pumped on adrenaline and just wanted to beat the fucking shit out out of everybody. Everybody. On the street. The cashier. Didn't matter who.'" - Frankie, Keep Music Evil

Profane Hippie!

  Britta and I last saw Tom in December 2018 when I was in New York for a gig. We had a late lunch at an Italian restaurant in Chelsea (he lived nearby), and Tom talked about how the neighborhood had changed. He hated that the ambulances were now equipped with super-bright LED lights that flashed through his fifth-floor windows at night. But his chief gripe was the new sign in Clement Clarke Moore Park on 22nd street, where he liked to sit with a cigarette, now prohibiting  adults except those accompanying children . As such, he had recently been accosted by one mother who told this tall 68-year-old guitar legend that he had to vacate the park. – Dean Wareham,  Encounters With Tom Verlaine,   www.counterpunch.org
