James Alexander Graham: Not An Ugly Bastard.
Monday, November 3rd, 2014The Twilight Sad played two gigs in Portland yesterday, and I had the pleasure of chatting with the guys for a bit after each. I had drawn a portrait of James, and gave it to him after the first show, a small acoustic session at a local record shop. James is absolutely gracious and kind. And contrary to what he said, he is definitely NOT “an ugly bastard”.

Biffy Fucking Clyro.
Wednesday, February 12th, 2014So, I’ve been waiting to post these portraits until I had a chance to show the band – and show them I have. The boys have taken the original drawings home with them. I still have no words for how their hugs and smiles and comments have made me feel. <3
At the Doug Fir, Portland Oregon, 10 February 2014.

Those boys, and their tour manager and their crew are so wonderful, sweet, and full of hugs. :D
