I was thinking of booking some shows today and I found the prospect a bit depressing because I am so out of touch. Before the Corone Virus killed mostly infirm/unhealthy people, I was fooling around in a few bands and playing shows, was following the same routine I had been for 23, 24 years. I wasn’t booking all those shows, not nearly, but I ran with people that booked shows. It was a skill some of my peers possessed that I would appreciate. But now, I think my appreciation for what they did could have been more pronounced. I took it for granted. Maybe in the end we all feel like we took all of this for granted.
So now I was thinking of calling my friend who relentlessly played shows during the pandemic and seeing if I could get a list of potential venues. If anyone stayed plugged in while everyone else was being a faggot, it’s him.
When I drink during the day, I feel like a bloated Johnny Depp, wandering aimlessly around an island town. People know my name and I know their names. They are sweet to me, and I tip the maximum amount.
