Been dodging Coachella “news” for days now and it just keeps coming. It’s like a zombie plague.
Longtime Simpsons animator/director/producer David Silverman is no slouch either. Here he is playing a flaming tuba at Burning Man. I wonder if they’ve ever performed together?
The best part about this is how much Danny Elfman actually looks like a character from a Tim Burton film.
The over flow of Chella revelers hit the Joshua Tree area like tidal wave of BoHonistas gone terribly wrong. We know better than to go amongst them.
He (Silverman) also performs locally here in LA with Vaude and the Villains - a completely amazing show if you ever get a chance to see them. Dude is an inspiration, a great example of how to become wildly successful without losing your soul.
Danny just connecting with his OB roots. Sweet!
i’ve met him at the burn! he’s a super, super nice guy.
wish i could say the same about Mr. Elfman, but… i’ve never met him. : )
he’s 68?? shit, he looks amazing.
I came here to say that I hope I look this good at 68.
I remember an interview where he explained that he started getting inked later in life and it was a process of self-discovery. They all have strong meanings to him.
I wish I look and feel this amazing at 68
This was not anything I would really call “hardcore”. I was expecting, I dunno, some distortion? Some thrashing? Having a whole orchestra up on the stage is impressive, sure, but I feel like any performance described as “hardcore” should have at least a 75% chance of a mosh pit happening to it, and this… was not mosh-inducing.
