Great post as always! Had the pleasure of meeting Nick Cave many years ago and he was as cool and gracious as you'd expect. 'Red Right Hand' has always been a fave of mine.

Not sure if you're aware, but Cave has a newsletter called 'The Red Hand Files'. People ask questions and he answers them once a week. It's always powerful and enlightening stuff, and I highly recommend it to anyone who's a fan of his. If you, or anyone reading this is interested, you can read it / sign up here: https://www.theredhandfiles.com/

I second this❤️. I've said it before on Substack but the Red Hand Files is one of the best things I read each week. He is so wise, tender and caring in his answers, and he's patient & kind even when the writer/asker is prickly. His occasional blitz with long lists of yes/no questions can be funny too

Couldn't agree more with everything you said. I look forward to reading it every week.
