UNDER CONSTRUCTION FOR WHO KNOWS HOW LONG. I'm working on another (time consuming) project that takes precedence because the deadline is all too soon! This means that some info on this page may not be fully updated yet and links may not work properly. Thank you for your patience.
Photos are not from this day in 1983, just posted here today so there'd be cool pics to look at.
1983 |
On this day in On this day in 1975, JP went to Dominica between Led Zeppelin tours to meet up with beat poet Royston Ellis. JP recalls:
"He was residing and writing in a building catering as a cricket pavilion, rum bar and living quarters in Mero outside the capital Roseau.
Dominica's rum could be had straight up, with juices or with herb infusions. One of these brews was called Nani, another was called l'absinthe, with wormwood. I guess this was a follow through from the old French colonial rule and the penchant for absinthe. I have fond memories of the local 'joy juice'."
