I did it! I drove to Baltimore and witnessed a full night of sonic mayhem. Especially dug Jac Berrocal. Shall return next year…

If you love Las Vegas and Palm Springs for the 50’s modern
architecture and over the top neon you should rush to
Wildwood NJ before they tear down all the cool motels and
put up soulless condos. Don’t forget to take a ‘Doo Wop’ 50’s
trolley tour to see all the relevant eyecandy.

Truly magical, obssessive, vast miniature world. You don’t even have to like miniature trains to enjoy it. This place gives roadside attractions a good name.

All your Factory regulars and superstars are there including
Velvet Underground memorabilia.

Just a quiet cemetary in Fairmount, Indiana with the grave
of James Byron Dean. Don’t miss the two Dean museums in town
with interesting memorabilia.

If you’re queer and you’ve never been to the queer film festival at the Castro you haven’t lived.

Hampden is the place to go in Baltimore. Don’t miss The True
Vine record store. A hidden gem with a friendly, knowlegable
staff and the coolest stock imaginable. Then there’s Atomic Books, and comix, and magazines. Bring money…

If humans who haven’t any art supplies beyond unraveled
sock yarn and mud can create unforgettable art full of
beauty and personality, why don’t I?

Columbia itself is the very model of a Stepford suburb,
but Daedalus Books Warehouse with it’s glam coffeetable art books for pennies on the dollar puts Columbia on the map for any bibliophile between DC and Baltimore. Don’t miss!

Go for the large number of thriftstores and don’t miss
the tasty Indian Buffets!
