My 14 year old self can't believe that this day has come.... when they put posters from the Aladdin Sane photoshoot on the London Underground.

the queue wasn't too bad when i went just before opening. but i did have to get a membership, as the regular entrance was sold out. it was worth it though. he's such a multi-talented artist.

i managed a pilgrimage to denmark street later in the day. i think i like wunjo the best. there are a couple of solid scots there and amazing guitars. all this despite the thatcher funeral. i was staying in marylebone near the baker st station--gloucester place, but i didn't go on the tube at all and missed the advert.

I'll try going just before opening. I have to see it.

Yeah Wunjo has weird guitars you don't see elsewhere.
Macaris is good like that too (Charing X Rd one especially).

You were staying just round the corner from me!
