Even more dapper than usual.
The Facebook page for The Great Gatsby has photographs from the after screening party, complete with performances from the BFO.

Roxy,
Un très grand merci.
I think this whole Gatsby story is really quite a trip.
In the beginning, we had TJA released with the fur boa crowd throwing their sythesizers out of their prams, doubting Thomas forecasting album sales in single digits and doomsayers predicting that the end is nigh!
Happily, there are visionary hipsters out there that appreciated the complete genius of this album and now, six months down the road, our hero has saved Baz Luhrmann's soundtrack and is strutting his fandango down la promenade de la croisette with his musical troubadours in tow.
Absolutely brilliant! Now, if he could just get that off white DJ out of storage and get those flappers lined up for his RAH and Brighton gigs he'd make this boy an even happier bunny.
As a postscript, we're off to see "Gatsby" soon. Doubtless Mrs.Windswept will sleep thru' the whole gig but will awaken in time to say; "Oh, thats a great Handbag - think we can get it?"
Regards,
Windswept.
