A Few Moments from the Summer of 2009... (Video Repaired 4/17/2025)


I wandered over to Mac's Flickr page today and was pleasantly surprised. Flickr changed its format, a it's quite nice. Better even, they've made it possible, let alone easy, to share the photos & whatever videos may be gathering dust in the back corners. (Update 4/17/2025: Inset right is a great photo - found today - on one of Andrea Ring's Mac Tonnies pages I somehow missed!)

I was a little alarmed when I first saw the video (below) - June 27, 2009 - and thought Mac seemed somewhat weak and exhausted... but, he assured me it was just the weather: "Mid-90s here and humid as hell."




Mac's comment on the video? 

"The "interview" was my idea; maybe next time I'll actually have something to say!"

Mac originally posted this clip on Posthuman Blues under the title "Alien Pin".

UPDATE 6/5/13: Dana Tonnies just filled me in with a little background info. The interviewer in this clip is none other than David Peeples, one of Mac's Latteland compadres, and an occasional Post-Mac Blue's contributor.

David, and other members of the Latteland gang - including Andrea Ring, the creator of Mac's alien pin - were interviewed about Mac, in 2011, for a local Kansas City television news spot found here.
