One of my too-many Funko Pops:...

An oldie but a goodie, purchased on eBay a few years back:...

This was my aunt Mary’s. She was a huge Elvis fan and also did a lot of thrift-shopping, flea-marketing, and antiques-auction hunting, and apparently had a ton of Elvis memorabilia at her place in Montreal, but this was the one bit I got, brought back to Vancouver when my...

Sadly, I never got to see INXS live. I only got into them about a year before Michael Hutchence died. They played a show at the PNE that year (late August) and I had been going to go but for whatever reason I didn’t, and didn’t worry about it...
