Stuff around town
Saturday I went to go see a production of Jesus Christ Superstar at the 7 stage in little five points. The sound quality wasn't the best so it was difficult to understand what they were saying much of the time, but regardless it was a really excellent show and rather touching at moments. I have never seen the show before and it was comically done and even more modernized that the original. Had quite a fun time joyfully counting out the thirty-nine lashed Jesus received and chanting "Crucify him!" to the song. My favorite characters were Mary because she was certainly the best singer, and Pontius Pilate. He is probably the most metal guy ever and was dressed in drag complete with makeup, silk kimono, stockings, and leather booty shorts. Also, he looked exactly like Nathan Explosion.
After that we headed to corner tavern for a couple drinks, but on the way we ran into about a hundred or so people dressed as Santa Claus who were giving out candy and other gifts. Fred was given a chunk of coal from one the of the better looking Clauses and Meryl received a giant foot long candy cane rod for mentioning that she was naughty. There was one guy dressed as the miner guy from the claymation Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer movie. We got a couple of pretty good pictures that I will post someplace if someone can get them to me. Apparently, it was Santa-con and they were bar hopping around the area. If I can find out when/where it is going down next year I am for sure going.
Eventually we got to the corner tavern and met up some other people for said drinks. Nothing particularly out of the ordinary though I did get to have a really great talk with my brother about all the things that have been going on in our lives of late. It was really good for me to offer and receive some words of advice. Always comforting to know that there is some people that would go any distance for you.
I think I may be getting a little sick though. Not that there is ever a good time to get sick, but this seems like a bad one.
