So it was a nice weekend. I went up to RI and then yesterday Tony and I decided sort of last minute that we were going to go to the Iggy Pop show at Lupo's in Providence, I am really glad we went. The show was terrific and on the way up I realized I had not seen the man in eleven years (yikes) and I remember feeling old when I saw him then. Anyway it was a pretty amazing crowd: lot's of kids, some people's gray dads, uh...what appeared to be former Stooges groupies, bikers, and a lot of young kids. The highligh of the night were the folks standing around Tony and I. A couple of guys, who I refer to as the over-cautious rabble-rousers, spent a better part of the evening throwing together a plan in the event that they got separated in the mosh pit (one can never be too careful). My personal favorite was the guy standing to our right who asked their friends if they wanted to head to the pit. When no one answered him he asked, "Will someone hold my cellphone while I go to the pit."
It's safe to say we all had a grand time.
