It has been months since I've posted. What a long strange trip...
I had been in a situational depression for days when Thursday rolled around. I had changed my mind a few times and resigned myself to wallow in self pity when Mango called and I said fuck this crap, stay on the phone while I pack. Packed in 4 minuets and walk out the door not knowing how I would swing the weekend $ . I get by with a little help from my friends... This community is full of love and healing vibes... Arrive and set up vip camping trying to rise up from the emotional wreckage of my heart. Had a nice talk with a soulful woman (thank you PG) that put my spirit in the right place. Night one ... Help on the Way was just perfect for my state of mind. Slipnot franklins I started to really let lose. Feel like stranger was never a favorite of mine but was perfect when one feels a stranger to oneself... Run for roses.. Can I leave her standing there? I could not but had to... Expressway was flowing like water in the night. Corrine funk beat to put the funkiness of life in its proper perspective. TANGLED UP IN BLUE was the accumulation of all I had been feeling. I danced, grinned ear to ear and laughed all while frantically dancing away my blues... At one point something popped in my thigh but could not stop until I hit the rug. I made it to a chair but was not out for the count. I got up and finished the set. Set2... Box of rain. Can I find direction around some corner? Feel my way like the day or lifetimes before... Can I make it clear through to another day? Seen through the eyes of other lives I've escaped..
Mans World brought me back from a world revolving around the love of a woman... Cryptical is a constant reminder that we all have to die, sometimes to live again in this lifetime. This always puts things in proper perspective. Powerful other one. Eyes reconfirms that I am in my right mind and that all I need to do is live no particular way but my own... The rest of night one was spent nursing my leg listening to the beauty that dso brings to us all...
night 2. At the first notes of CHIMES OF FREEDOM I bolted to the stage and Lisa delivered the most soulful powerful singing that was the catharsis of all I have lived... My emotional experiences of a life overcoming heartache too personal to tell, the law, the outcast that society labels me, the aching that cannot be healed, and the strung out one and worse... THANK YOU LISA !!!!!!!
After Chimes nothing could be added to my 2017 jubilee experience.....
