Van Gogh is my most favourtist artist of all time - I've even still got the print of the Smoking Skull which I picked up on a trip to his museum in Amsterdam
@MadameZia He's one of mine too. I've been there a few times. I remember seeing there that he lived in Ramsgate for a little while. A couple of years ago I went to Arles and you can see quite a few of the subjects he painted there, most notably the courtyard Asylum where he stayed, which now has little shops in it. Also, the colloseum there, which had a bull fight on when I was there.
@steties I believe it's some sort of new fangled iPod attachment.......no, I made that up.....I think really it's the nick-name for Jonathan Richman. I'd not heard it before either

Let's not forget 'No One Was Like Vermeer' and 'Salvador Dali"!

@tomdwilly I've never heard 'Salvador Dali' -- I'll have to check it out, thanks

I guess there's a lot more scope for rhyming with Van Go than Van Goff. Cough, trough, scoff, er, toff?

@tomdwilly The same as you @philipnareike , I've never heard 'Salvador Dali'. I was looking for it, but it worthless... Some of you two found it?

Just gotta say that your multi-image backdrop of Van Gogh made my eyes go peculiar!

If I were a billionaire and one of his works came up for auction, I would buy it. I just think he's the shit.
