A tricked out American Double-Wide as a rolling recording studio; the band parked in the Simple's driveway to cut their next few albums.
Eli, busy covering half the mountainside with canvas, went up in a Cessna to paint it; not getting close but dropping bags of liquid acrylics & dry pigments onto the billowing mass of thick cleanly woven material. Color negligible once the rugged mountain tore the canvas to pieces & it had to be reassembled through a painstaking process with the 'help' of several of his student assistants while the band recorded the double album. The following concert would draw millions of fans from thousands of miles away & the Simple's had to move. Not for the tribe of ***** clueless dropouts that parked on the estate like Canadian geese but Leonard, tasked with security had turned Montenegro into a virtual police state.
It just ******. Becky welcoming her polygamous husband back to the farm stateside. Chuckie polite enough a wayward stepmom not to flaunt her surgically enhanced sagging physique & for that everyone was grateful. The cat & mouse between the skinhead gangs & the cops in Montenegro making worldwide headlines about guns, drugs & hookers all drawn to rock and roll. In that it was indisputable, it wasn't illegal. It was also Eli.
Tamping a straw boater, Eli headed toward the barn perhaps to find an old skull of something wild to inspire him. The Mountainside hadn't taken much out of him emotionally so he wanted something more intimate as his next subject. The large patchwork canvas would hang on campus before touring to its final destination. Once the cops were paid off, peace broke out & Montenegro once again became a covert haven for the affluent & disaffected. Igor & Ivan running the show from Eli's villa like their personal fiefdom.
Igor's Hollywood produced film of the scene would cost billions.
Montenegro is a Balkan country with rugged mountains, medieval villages and a narrow strip of beaches along its Adriatic coastline. The Bay of Kotor, resembling a fjord, is dotted with coastal churches and fortified towns such as Kotor and Herceg Novi. Durmitor National Park, home to bears and wolves, encompasses limestone peaks, glacial lakes and 1,300m-deep Tara River Canyon.
