Season's Fleetings

I just returned from the 1st Annual Hideout Christmas Pyrate Panto. Jon Langford and Kelly Hogan in drag = awesome. Sally Timms in an evening gown and a mustache = dignified, yet oddly attractive. Lots of dirty pirate jokes, silly costumes, and music to remind one of Popeye. If you weren't there, you missed it.*

Now I guess I'm going to stay up until it's time to leave for my flight. Odds are I won't be blogging from the folks' place, so Happy Holidays to all y'all. Don't bogart the nog.

*I meant to take pictures, but they weren't allowed during the show and it was so crowded after that I got stir-crazy. Ah well.

Merry Christmas! And if we don't talk before then: happy new year. I think 2007 is going to be an exciting year for you.

I think so, too. Happy New Year!

Man, that sounds like a blast. I miss the Hideout.

The Hideout is kind of like heaven, only more cramped.

Jealous! I once bought a turquoise bowling shirt off Sally Timms' back. I still have it!

Merry, merry.

Cool!

I saw Sally at the Country Music Fest here a few years ago; she played songs off "Cowboy Sally's Twilight Laments" for an afternoon audience of mostly kids. It was cool.

Cool! I saw the Mekons twice in the 90's; both great shows.

I'm jealous! I didn't know from the Mekons in those days. But Langford and Timms both live around here now, so I've caught them at various events over the past few years.
