R.I.P. Bea Arthur

Bea won the Tony for Best Support Actress in 1966 for her role as Vera Charles, playing Angela Lansbury's best friend in "Mame". She recreated the role for the film version starring Lucille Ball (but the film version was bad!).

Here Bea & Angela sing their duet "Bosom Buddies" in a concert version years later (love the fashions). We'll miss you Bea.

The Helio Sequence

Just 2 guys in the band from Portland, Oregon. They've released a couple of indie albums and will open for Keane in Oakland, May 8 (we're going!).

The video was filmed in and around Portland in the wee hours of the night.
