Warhol Myung

I was just trying out the new Beta version of blogger by trying to post a pic of John Myung taken in 1988 - really just to brighten the page. No idea what Beta is, but it's presumably an all-singing-and-dancing improvement on it's predecessor (alpha?). Unless of course you just want to upload a photo. Then it'll quite happily bugger up the image and have you scratching your head like a chimp. Still, I actually kind of like the psychedelic look. Better than so much of the bollocks that passes as art these days. If you're ever in San Francisco, check out the modern "art" gallery. In there (and I swear I'm not making this up), you'll find a square canvas that has just been painted completely white using emulsion. Nothing else. Just white emulsion. They paid the guy who did it thousands of bucks. It's probably called "White" or something. It's a centrepiece in the gallery for God's sake. Apparently they have to repaint it ever few years to ensure it retains it's brightness. I am seriously in the wrong job.
