Cracked Kettless

((For none of us can ever express the exact measure of his needs or his thoughts or his sorrows, and human speech is like a cracked kettle on which we tap crude rhythms for bears to dance to, while we long to make music that will melt the stars.)) Flaubert!

Sometimes you just gotta go to your friend’s show even when you don’t want to. Because you might end up being the only person in the audience on a weirdo slow Tuesday night in the back room of a bar that’s already forgetting it’s old demographic and pandering to the young and silly. Because maybe you’re all the audience really needs because maybe you know the stories behind all the songs your friend wrote and is singing now to the only-you audience and you happen to know she’s secretly in love with the guy she’s playing with and all the songs are for him. And you know she sang on a Melvins record and used to be on the same record label as Roky Erickson in Houston but now she’s in the back room of a disinterested bar and only you are in the audience. Sometimes you just gotta show up because you are in charge of the stories unfolding where you’re going. Only you can see them. You gotta show up.
