since this is my 3rd time in rome, i have been visiting many of the typical tourist attractions / sites of ancient art & architecture & beauty...but as i already have photos of those places, i have decided to experience them more fully with the naked eye, rather than through the LCD screen of a digital camera
i do whip out my camera every now & then...to capture places that i am visiting for the first time. or something that catches my interest. so here's a few of those moments from my first few days back in Rome:
in my first couple nights here, i got to see my lovely friend Marco Guazzone perform, with my new boyfriend (not really) Andrea on guitar
"love will save us" ... or will it?
for my friend Sia back in NYC...i didn't know you had your own line of home fashions over here!!
at first glance...just a lovely gate.
a rather large keyhole
when Alice peers through the keyhole, she sees the Rose Garden. when Jay peers through the keyhole, he sees this curious row of hedges...
lean in close...
wow!! a perfectly framed view of St. Peters Basilica at the Vatican!! and if you drink the little vial of Holy Water, you shrink just enough to slip under the door and into eternal bliss, riding around town in the glass Popemobile and retiring nightly to the Papal Apartments like a true rich person of God. spiritually wealthy, only, of course. i'm sure the Vatican was built exclusively by volunteers.
pretty clear to me
but it seems even Italians have problems reading Italian

I love the framing of the hedges!
that's not playing with a ball. It is soccer, and that in Italy, is serious.
the best way to get an italian to do something is to tell them not to do it
you can't get Italians to stop playing football. It's just not possible.
From my trips to Rome I've noticed three things:
-all Italians smoke
-the tramps are rude & annoying
-the men are hot
oh so magical... thanks for sharing Jay. Did you get your apartment?
I think the Vatican needs to be overtaken and turned into the first gay-centered country with lots of hot guys in windows.
The Alice shot is gorgeous. Christians build such pretty things.
I think I only like Christianity for how it looks rather than what it believes; does this make me religiously shallow?
i missed you
ohhh you should visit Portugal too!
Rome seems to be beautiful. As for the soccer players, it´s not a matter of being italian. It´s a matter of being human. Don´t we all ignore sign boards?
*-* Músicas perfeitas *-*
Just discovered you! Woot. How does it feel to be a landmass? Lots of people arriving on big ships to stick a flag in you.
Found you through http://www.hunkdujour.com/
, and I think that says a lot about you. Mostly that everyone agrees you're nice to look at.
I downloaded your Itunes songs, as you requested in your UTube vid. And I'll give a review . . . when I feel like it.
Nice pics of Italy. I wish I could go for the food, not the view. I kinda feel like I've seen all the world, already, thanks to tv and movies.
Anywho,
Cheers!
I'm submitting an email with my comments on your music and your overall presentation of your point of view, re: your official website FAQ.
Let me know, in six months, when I've forgotten about you, if they're insightful :D
Pretty pictures! And btw, I love that your facebook status updates have been so positive lately! You give me and all the other negative creeps hope;) Maybe we should all go to Rome?
Love your music! Come to Scandinavia:)
Relax Jay... not following rules is an italian tradition ;) I'm from a half-italian family and I know how difficult is denying my dna sometimes.
It must be something for an American guy like you to discover this, i guess your memory will have it in a box somewhere so that you can take it out whenever you want ... Yannick
