Frankie Knuckles' Gardening Tips

Frankie,

when you remixed Rock With You for Michael Jackson did you get a chance to go to Nevrland? How would you rate the grounds?

Thanks,

Martin Bashir.

Was your song Tears inspired by a particularly bad gardening episode? What advice could you give everyone, to stop their gardens reducing them to tears?

Hi!

Crazy name! I "dig" it. aha ha.

I get this question all the time. It's so silly because anyone who knows me knows I am a real emotional person? and very much respectful of Gaaad. But it's actually a really funny story...

The famous period of Major Rudy Giuliani wasn't merely a period of drought for hedonism, love, music and male only baths.. it was an actual draught too. There was also a water shortage due to 9/11 and all those firemen (who are true heroes as well as hot).

So I got all my friends to bust that hosepipe ban by coming to my garden and looking a picture of Larry (in his prime of course!) . We decided not to weep about the twin towers, mainly as it wasn't quite as affecting as poor Larry's all-too short time with us. The weeping soon fed the upper tier of the eastern end of the gardena and why... gravity and the sunshine of Jesus did the rest.

You may want some of your more emotional friends to rotate slowly while weeping over Larry (and thinking hard about his fate and how it could have been). It's more fun when it sprinkles! Remember when mimicking rainfall try to make an even spread and avoid pooling.




Hope that helps!

hahahaha!

It was last night on the mundane thread. I'd recklessly announced I was attempting the perfect gravy and only the dog was bothered. But it was easily my best gravy and I looked down at the dog and did that David Morales pointy thing at him and said "mission accomplished" and then realised how pathetic and funny the moment was and started laughing uncontrolably. When I found a pic of Dave doing the pointy thing I think I started laughing last night and haven't stopped.

Mainly today I did the rest to freak Broadhead out when he does his evening log on and lurk.

It's a sad tale of a lonely man going slowly mad... I'll be in London soon so we can change the forum into a super efficient proper music one then. Won't that be exciting?

Can we all disappear up our own backsides then?

It's also a push to keep the people who come on looking for a form about music. More of a nudge than a push really. More of an accidental brushing past in a corridor. A corridor that has no music.

Then I will just replace you all in my mind with people I've made up from Shoreditch.

Can it still be us, but in a Shoreditch style? I've always wanted to see what I looked like with a tache.

It's been greatly appreciated, i've been in stitches.

Though i dare say i know Larry Levans weekend plans without looking.

Al's beaten you to it.

As a keen gardener I like to know my people out there are taking good care of their land, given by the grace of Gaaad. If music is the answer then the question might be "what's better, ammonium nitrate or miracle gro?" I'll give you a clue people. Miracles can happen, especially in my garden.

There are many ways. But only one Frankie Knuckles Way.

And I have the evidence to prove that.




So roll up your sleeves, keep your tools clean and "Knuckle Down" with me in the garden.




(or why not simply buy my DVD, "Baby Wants To Ride My Mower" $200)

Now I laughed.

The Frankie Knuckles Way



Sauron is giving one side of my face sunburn...

The Frankie Knuckles Way

When you feel like shit there is only one cure :

I've seen the weather report for T'north.

If you are gardening today tim you are the biggest titmarsh in the veg patch.

It's blowing and freezing like a Thatcher's fart.

T'is very very grim up here right now.....brrrrrrrrrrr

You know he is. Text from earlier today in response to my apology for having to work last weekend and general enquiring about his well-being and I quote :

"would love to hear your rubbish sicknote but currently doing penance on a massive unruly bush in fucking siberia. If I die tell my mother she owes me a fiver, signed Cpt Oates (outside. being some time)"

One of his better ones but not a patch on mine.

I actually have to keep coming indoors it's so freezing. fuck off!

Ye Olde Rog wrote:signed Cpt Oates (outside. being some time)"

"oh hello Oates! back again old chap? what's that? the 7th time you've said you're off? make up your mind dear boy would you?"

it's like a hurricane round our way!

tell me you don't go gardening, never mind go out in this? it must be worse up in them mountains

I think the more hideous conditions the more he likes it. It's masochistic and stupid. like evel kenevel

i just woke up from a nightmare that my garden is unattended.

Hi,

I'm Frankie.
Sweet Lady. 'Aint nothin' I can't do.

How can I help?



I will start by PRAAAAYIN' for you. Yes indeed.


As I have said... in gardening (and landscaping matters) there are many, MANY ways. But only one Frankie Knuckles Way.

And I have the evidence to prove that.
