Some days bring you a reality that is hard to shake. Paul Rubens (AKA Pee Wee Herman), Angus Cloud, and Sinéad O’Connorare the most recent examples of creative people who have left their mark and we are left trying to make sense of the loss. I grew up watching Pee Wee’s Playhouse. I don’t think I ever bought a Sinéad O’Connor record, but I knew all of her songs. Angus Cloud just got started–his work in Uphoria is special. No one is perfect, but sometimes when the timing is right, when the practice, and the ideas all come together something perfect gets created.
