World of wow. If my orgasms could write music they'd sound like those of last night.
And by that I mean last night was the Muse show.
Not only that, I had completely forgotten that a friend of mine mentioned a few months back that he thought Juliette and The Licks was their opening act but he wasn't sure. He was right! Actually there were two opening bands; I'll get to the other in one moment. Back to Juliette. Aside from loving many of her films and admittedly having a girl-crush, I've sung Juliette Lewis's vocal talents for some years now and seen a few clips of live performances so when I realized that she was indeed playing I was more than just a little excited. Watching her perform is quite the experience. I knew that her stage persona was very energetic, not to mention eccentric. But she blew me away. Girl has pipes! I kept finding myself forgetting that she was also this movie star, which I think is fantastic. It attributes to her actually having talent. I wasn't too surprised that no one around me knew any of their songs, nor was I surprised that by the end of their set many were converted.
Anyway, they did a signing during intermission so I left during the middle of their last song so I could be one of the first in line. I even told my sister that if Muse started before I could meet her she could go in without me. That's how much I wanted to meet this woman.
Earlier in the day I had chosen an outfit for the evening and was perfectly happy, but just before I left I thought, something tells me I should wear my Johnny Depp Crybaby shirt. When it comes to fashion intuition I follow it.
So there I am fawning all over Juliette Lewis when she looks down and exclaims, "I love that shirt!" Like a total goof I replied, "I know!" She was so cute and little. I just wanted to put her in my pocket. When I got back to my sister she asked how it went etc., and I said, "I touched the hand of someone who has touched Johnny Depp, someone who has made out with Johnny Depp numerous times!" Awesome.
I don't want to type anymore, I'll finish it later.
