sheet, that was a good, good, good show. I just wish... agh... that the
place didnt close so damn early, 2am and RD had to cut off his set with the
crowd definitely not ready to wind down yet. Both Lex and Richard were just
beyond my linguistic abilities right now, absolutely beautiful.
A fan would have been nice in the place, but really I rather enjoyed the
primitive nature of being pressed close together in this worship of
technology, intermingling sweat and tears and energy...dude, i'll just shut
up now.
shucks, Brian, thanks for the beautiful women comment, i am just gonna shove
myself into that category and give you a big toothy grin, okay?
