Quote from DKult Member Meeah Williams

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

Comment by Lynn Radford on May 14, 2012 at 5:19pm: Thanks for the post, KDJ! The praise is currently soaking in, Neil! Glad to see No. III stands well on its own, but remember... There are two that come before and the complete message is even more awesome!

Comment by Neil Gordon on May 14, 2012 at 5:02pm: Awesome Lynn!

Comment by Neil Gordon on May 14, 2012 at 4:27pm: Mick Ronson! One of my Guitar heroes &Dkult? Who knew! What happened with the skunk? Was it a Culinary roadkill issue?

Comment by De Villo Sloan on May 14, 2012 at 4:19pm: The 2009 RK Tour is the most infamous. Mick Ronson ("the loop") was the featured musical guest, although he had been dead for 5 years. The tour ended with a bus wreck outside Scranton, PA - supposedly the result of Mr. Stubbs' bad driving. Ronson was seen arguing on the empty highway (around 5 am) with DK over a skunk that had been run over. Ronson stormed off, a red porsche pulled over & let him in. He has not been seen since. One of mail-art's great mysteries.

Comment by Not Hi Ng on May 14, 2012 at 4:02pm: I must research the DK RoadKill Tour… most intriguing.

Comment by Not Hi Ng on May 14, 2012 at 3:56pm: DK, the adhesive I used most is called DAP 3000. The longer it's on, the better it works. The 'spikes' are the plastic bottles from a drink that was popular during the 80s, don't see it any more. Thanks for the welcome!

Comment by De Villo Sloan on May 14, 2012 at 2:12pm: Exactly.

Comment by DKeys on May 14, 2012 at 2:10pm: It would be great if we could resurrect Hi's trashbus for the RoadKill Tour under his tutelage!
