Picture: several nude figures sitting on a picnic blanket with balloons.

Ok, the other two pictures are a simulated birthday party including some wacky regulars- customers made into models for my photographic fantasy world. They were just a few of the players in the drunk circus cast of the Hole

Picture: several nude figures sitting on a picnic blanket while one is on a rope swing.

So there you go- a view from inside the Hole. The Hole was a portal to the childlike timeless realm of Austin's rockin' unpretentious past, now disappearing into the yuppie mediocrity of big city blues. Salud to all the veterans of the Hole- I hope you are all drinking somewhere cozy out there in the Modern Austin. Thanks Hole for my 14 years of lushy rock n roll. I guess 29 years of rockin' is a good stretch for any little bar shack, but it played heavy on my little black heartstrings.
