SUSSUSSUDIO. Just kidding, it’s Jef Barbara!

Dearest friend Jef Barbara,

You debuted YET ANOTHER video project on my beautiful, delighted, tickly interconnected tubes. Jef: I owe you a major chat fest. Last time I spoke to you, you were trying to figure out how to vogue your way through an audio clip of that SCENE from Dynasty (I have no idea but it seemed to be obvs, so I didn’t dare ask).

And now, a message from our fav pop-synth gay black Quebecois man (wink, Lorraine Carpenter, who finally reviewed his LP in the Montreal Mirror).

Gros bisous tout mouillés!

Lina
