The pics are of his house, I think, but the show seems to be at a gallery by the address.

Regardless, if I was in the area I would so be there. I love Keane's work. (I'm also digging that giant Jeep in the first pic).

Just called the gallery to confirm that admission is free!!! 10am breakfast at Astroburgers. OC by noon. (Hey Chris, Carl has your phone#, yes?)

Here's a blurb from the press notes for the show:
"A rare opportunity to be surrounded by a special selection of works from the collection of the incredibly pretentious and extremely undeserving Long Gone John before he finally gets the hell outta dodge to take up residence in the specific northwest and begins to upset the environment and countless thousands of unsuspecting citizens . . ."

Hey Chris, we got there sometime after one - thanks to an accident on teh 5 freeway, which was kind of backed up as a result. Just got back in now after some stops on the way back including a visit to the Anti-Mall in nearby Costa Mesa, the Mark Ryden Exhibition on Beverly finally stopping off at Meltdown to see Rick's new Celga haul!

Sorry dude!

A small, but GREAT show - LOVED it! What did u think?

Yer kidding? We took photo after photo, non-flah of course. The girl didn't seem to mind, in fact she even took one of the three of us.

Sorry we missed you Chris!

A few pix from the "Treasures" show. Hopefully Carl will post more. btw, one of the coolest parts of the exhibit was a video tour of Long Gone John's house. :shock:

Apologies to Chris. I must have cursed our drive down to OC as we were leaving Astroburger when I declared, "Looks like we'll actually get there on time!"
