I went to the new auditorium it did not exist yet when i moved to nyc -
looked fancy

we had dinner at some trattoria down the street - via conchetta.

john zorn was playing the next day at 11 am with mike patton
gregor had a ticket for me but i ended up sleeping and resting
strange to see all these new yorkers in milan

corso di porta ticinese that was like the east village of milan -
now is filled with these people like on bleeker street on a saturday night

my favorite ice cream place is gone -
but my favorite local churches are still here

---

i wish i had a bike when i lived in milan -it is so much easier than nyc
to get around -
but here i am happy to have a mountain bike
as there are so many streets with cobblestones and intersecting rail
tracks, you may get stuck in with skinny tires.

i go to the cemetery to bring some flowers -
there is a statue of an angel with the face of a scared girl
and there is dust on it -
and i kinda love it
---

my old friend fabrizio gives me some gorgonzola and salame and wine.
he distributes very good wines to restaurants and expensive 1500 euro
bottles to wine collectors worldwide.
he does not make a lot of money but has a nice large cozy apartment and
the wine he offers is always very good not cheap
