i've missed more shows in the past month...nine inch nails, depeche mode...bands i've always sworn to go and see. the funniest part? i don't even care. i think it's because i know that no matter how good a show is from now on it's going to pale in comparison to danzig singing misfits, especially after all the shit katy and i went through to get there. i'm still amazed by it. we drove through a fucking hurricane and almost died (several times) on i-4, spent $36 on tickets, at least $30 on gas and an even more ungodly amount at the bar. the other night i met up with her and her friend kim after they saw depeche mode and we watched a fat guy dancing to soft cell. i think those are the things i miss most about shows. the insanity that goes on. chris's shows make up for it pretty completely, though. nearly every time he plays a show there's a deranged 50-something dude dancing like a drunken maniac at the front of the stage. alex got some on video once. i've got to get a hold of that footage. speaking of alex, a guy she dated in the 10th grade recently came out of the closet. so now she's got one coke addict, a dropout, a pedophile and one that's gotten arrested, plus one that's turned gay under her belt. i wish i could spice up people's lives the way she does.
