They both look like stuffed crust kinds of guys.

I don't know, maybe Paul Simon meeting Television at CBGB is already a well-worn tale. NYC in '77, everyone knew everyone.

"No, guys, it's good, it's really really good. Just wonder why, you know, your guitars always gotta sound so angular?"

"Are you listening, Verlaine? Two Words: 'Fretless Bass'. Two More: 'African Dudes'. Three More: 'Ladysmith Black Mambazo'. Yeah, that really is just three words..."

"Uh, we just wanted to stop by and say that we really enjoyed your sets. I though it was ... very musical, and I liked it a lot. Are you ... are you recording? Or do- Are you with any label now? Uh, well, I'd like to talk to you about that sometime, if you get a chance. ... of possibly working together. This is, uh, Shawn, and, uh ... Bob and Petronia. Uh ... w-we're going back to the Pierre. We're staying at the Pierre ... and we're gonna meet Jack and Angelica, and have a drink there, and ... if you'd like to come, uh, we'd love to have you. And we could just sit and talk ... nothing. Uh, not a big deal, it's just relax, just be very mellow."

Tuomas is kidding about this, right? It can't be possible that he "recently rewatched all the seasons of The Nanny" but doesn't recognize Seinfeld?

dali & francoise hardy (in an egg shell)

Trying to find the latest photo of Dali posing with someone noteworthy. Didn't realize he didn't die until 1989.

Helmut Newton's about as late as I've found. Still have hopes of one with him and ALF.

Ooh, this comes close. Keith Haring on the far right.

Wait, that's two different pictures, good grief.

I was about to say...

Guess this thread would be much easier to compile that way.

Trying to find the latest photo of Dali posing with someone noteworthy.

I had a fruitless quest to find Dali with the Dalai Lama.

Thinking of Dali photos and his muses, I like the wiki extract for Amanda Lear:

Lear's origins are unclear, with the singer herself providing different information regarding her background and keeping her birth year a secret even from her long-term husband. Contested facts include her birth date and place, her birth sex, names and nationalities of her parents and the location of her upbringing.

Coincidentally just came across this, apparently from 83:

I swear, there are more pictures of those two on the Internet than there are of Sonny & Cher.

btw, I couldn't find one of Alice Cooper with Sonny & Cher,

But I did find this one of him with Sonny & Sheen.

^^^ well done

Kubrick & Brando.

One-Eyed Jacks, a 1961 Western, is the only film directed by actor Marlon Brando. The picture was originally planned to be directed by Stanley Kubrick from a screenplay by Sam Peckinpah, but studio disputes led to their replacement by Brando and Guy Trosper.

Is there such a thing as the inverse of this thread, like people you fully expected to appear in a photo together at some point but never have? I was thinking about Elton John and David Bowie recently and figured that since both were musicians from the same country active over a very long period of time there should obviously be photos of them together, but apparently they hate each other and there is only one that I've seen.
