Cleaning the house… Truly an event… Anyway… We found some MINEO stuff in the attic… And we’re Garage Sale-ing it while you read this… So, through the link, you can get your copy of MINEO–the one you long to have; whether it is the Vinyl-form, the CD, or the Digital Package… In addition, we created a new Stream-Version for YouTube. And the Digital-Packages (both on BandCamp or via the link) come with a bonus-track and the original booklet–which was created for the deluxe CD version. In addition, the booklet pages are published here as well… >>>BANDCAMP >>>ARCHIVES ORIGINAL BOOKLET

Yes… I’m terrible with memories, I can tell you that… However… Some things spring to mind… Hanging out with 'The Stipe' [Michael Stipe, renowned singer of REM, Eds.], fashion shows, parties, endless parties… Also hanging out with some exiled Arab prince, don’t make me mention his name, but we had a few laughs and drinks… He was nearly killed in a biking accident in Amsterdam–when he came to visit me–over some Stroopwafels (I love the way he called them Stroopwafels as if he was a local)... And then we had some drinks… Obviously…  It was the height of my solo-career as a musician… And everybody wanted me as an actor… It became the reason to become a recluse… God, I love this album…  Jean, october '23 The 10th anniversary of theLOTUStape releases in March...   *Jean's outfit in both the artwork of the album as well as in the #CYGL-video was designed by Rick Owens
