Death comes for us all (a melodramatic haiku of retirement)
Alas! this blog is
no longer where it is at.
Onwards! (Back to home.)



guts and garters

It's all fun and games until someone loses molecular cohesion.

He was my kind of guy. Tall, lanky (skinny, even), dark oh-so-dark. Brooding. Intense. Talented. He was Paul Dempsey of Something for Kate and he was pouring out his soul on stage.

The concert was brilliant. Oh, didn't I mention I was going to see Something for Kate last night? Well, I was, I did, and they were brilliant. Rawly evocative. Soul-wrenching stuff. It's not even my sort of music - too alternative, not heavy enough - but it was exquisite. "Electricity" rocked my socks clean across the room. (Or rather, would have if not for the fact that I wasn't wearing any and the crowd was packed too tight for anything to be rocked anywhere.) Mr Dempsey's solo songs were heart-rending, when his band left him alone and vulnerable on the stage with just his guitar and a few hundred adoring fans.

He is, as A said, a very attractive man. Physically, but most of all emotionally, mentally. He has a beautiful soul. And I feel privileged to have peeked into it.

Backed up by Big Heavy Stuff and Adam Said Galore. When the music is loud enough, I can feel my jeans vibrate against my legs. I don't feel the music in my stomach any more, I feel it in my clothing.
