"A Night at the Paradise" essay at Manarchy
I wrote a big fat essay about the Helmet show I went to in August. It's about music, sibling relationships, existential crisis, pop culture obsession, influence, art, and toddler-sized beers. Go read it!
"Have you ever been alone in a room full of people? I ask because my most recent Sartre[1]-esque bout of existential loneliness happened after my brother cruelly abandoned me at a recent Helmet/Toadies concert. He left me in Boston’s Paradise Rock Club to haunt the all access box. All by myself. Not an Eric Carmen[2] fan to be seen."
