CAVEAT: I'm only happy about this one because I like to pretend that the ceiling caved in two seconds after this photo was taken killing all three where they stood.

I like this photo, not totally unlikely, but still a whole lot of famous. Saw first on an ILM thread, I think.

In another world, with a different photo that had more of Elvira and less of Tommy Lee, that would have been a great Carry On-style joke.

GARBAGE Frontwoman SHIRLEY MANSON Shares Touching Tribute to BRENT HINDS Following His Death on Thursday (Aug. 21st).
“Oh my sweet soul brother @bhinds. I am utterly devastated to learn of your death,” she wrote on Instagram. “I loved you from the second we met all these years ago now in Mexico City when we were first introduced by my darling Eric Avery who preceded our introduction with the words ‘You are going to love him’ and I f*cking did.
“I love you. And the world is so much less wild and free and beautiful without you in it. Rest easy my brother. Keep me a seat at the bar will you?
“My sincere condolences to all your fellow bandmates and all the various musicians who love you and have been influenced by your work. My thoughts, sincere sympathy and condolences to your family and to your fans. You will be so missed. Love love love always. Your girl, Shirl x”

One of their best songs, Robert De Niro’s Waiting, even prompted the man himself to get in touch and ask them out for a drink.

“He called us in our council flat,” laughs Sara Dallin, who, with Keren Woodward, now makes up the band. “My boyfriend answered the phone and said, ‘Bob De Niro’s on the phone.’ ‘As if.’ And he was.”

Do they have pictorial evidence of their night out?

“We’ve got three or four photos. Can you imagine if it were now? It would be selfies like crazy,” says Woodward. “But they were on an old Instamatic, so they’re not that clear.”

No photo sadly, but this detail from James Rosenquist’s autobiography caught my eye. Two years before Sgt. Pepper.

‘I gave a big party in my loft in 1965 to celebrate F-111; Tony Cox and little Julian Lennon came, along with Tony Curtis and Karlheinz Stockhausen.’

Dan Worsley, Monday, 29 December 2025 09:40 (two weeks ago)

Timeline is interesting as Cox was married to Yoko Ono at the time. Hard to believe two year old Julian Lennon would be there without his father. So did John and Yoko meet there, well before the 1966 Indica gallery meeting. Maybe she didn’t attend but must’ve been known to each other.
