"If trashpo has taught me anything its that every windblown street corner and cyclone fence is a veritable Dick Blick of free art materials."

Snooky, the amazing mail art dog, is in charge of the brainwashing techniques. Well, actually he masterminded and operates the device according to secret protocal that he will not share. Give him until the end of  the day Lynn, and you'll be neutral!!

Okay, who is in charge of DKultist brainwashing techniques? Would that be Neil's department? 'Kause my ego is growing with DKompliments! :D

Lynn, your series is fantastic so far! Hi , that adhesive sounds amazing and indestructible. I've been search of the perfect adhesive ever since I started doing altered art. Your car just sticks in my mind.

Oh, yeah. The skunk. That was the creation of DK's "Chunk-o-Skunk" - that set a record for Trashpo prices when it was auctioned on Ebay last year. You could conclude DK & Mick were arguing over who invented "Chunk-o-Skunk" - Mick, already a victim of Bowie, might have seen this as his last hope for a place in the artworld - if he could claim he created "Chunk-o-Skunk."

Comment by De Villo Sloan on May 14, 2012 at 5:22pm

Hi Neil, I thought you knew the legend of Mick Ronson on the 2009 RK Tour. DK has all sorts of music connections thanks to her Uncle Bobby Keys - acclaimed sax player.

Sure we loved Mick with Bowie, and we know he was the real Ziggy Star Dust & had actually created the concept years before Bowie, and then Bowie unceremoniously fired the whole band.

But I think Trashpoets remember him best for those gothic, late-night hotel room scenes in "Renaldo & Clara" (the Bob Dylan film epic disaster). And with Mick's macho, menacing stunts therein we cannot help but ask: How did Bowie get that guy to wear a dress?

 

The fact that Mick had supposedly been dead for 5 years when he teamed up with DK leads to the questions: Was it a Mick-look-alike? Did Mick fake his first death?

Who was driving the mysterios red porsche?

 

These questions have been answered in Mr. Stubbs' book Splattered! My Life on the Road with DK. Yet the book has been supressed. Why?
