A Message to the International Deadhead Federation: I'm in conversation with @PAPPADEMAS and Joan LeMay tonight about their tremendous new book "Friends of the Devil," which people are rightfully saying is even better than the 2/26/77 "Terrapin." 7 pm at Book Soup

as a former Smith & 9th-er who could also never resist pointing out that it’s the highest point in the New York subway system, jealous that @caityweaver got to go there with Captain Picard for this beautiful GQ piece. RIP king gq.com/story/patrick-stewart…
