All Faces Weekend

By way of “end credits,” your All Faces Weekend hosts say ‘Hi!’

Tony: “Studying in a Rod Stewart rocker wig helps to squeeze more sweet juice from my mind grapes.”

Ben: “Welcome to ‘Hangover Morning (Afternoon)’ at All Faces Weekend HQ-West.”

Neil: “Maybe you can’t tell but that’s a proper pint and some Faces playing.”

Dave: “…aside from musical tales of debauchery, [my All Faces Weekend] mostly just involved a lot of tea and writing about information access and retrieval.”

Raina*: “All Faces Weekend has been heavy on music and drinking, but seriously lacking in the hot babe department. I guess I’ll have to do in a pinch.”

Also, thanks to Ed Ackerson, yimmyayo, Michael Gillman, and David Futernick for the additional Faces ephemera we picked up along the way.

The sun is beginning to set on All Faces Weekend, but don’t you worry! We’ve got a recap and a great sendoff track coming down the pipeline…as well as a hint of things to come. Thanks for drankin’ and swangin’ with us!

*Raina has been pumping the All Faces Weekend spirit into Facebook, which is why you haven’t noticed her on this Tumblr. In regards to her above photo, she would like to add:

Fwiw, “Stay With Me” is on the iPod. Because, for me, it’s one of those early childhood “OH MY GOD THIS IS ABOUT SEX” songs. This is the sort of education that one gets from hippie parents with a small, but high-quality record collection.

For the record, we still feel like that whenever we crank the Faces.
