I was mad.
We were late. Yes yes technical difficulties. Hiring and firing. Horrible hotels and moving whole groups ....taking 4 hours in total. Misunderstandings with travel agents who's ass I'm forced to kiss. Fucking Cologne sucked. And so I took a nap. DURING the show. Like a pouting 8 year old. Anyone who walked in the dressing room I just frowned, grumbled. So passed out was I...until I heard a sound I rarely here....JK's falsetto "send it off, send a clueeeeeee....". Tonights show was a regular show. NO festival times. No quick ins and outs. Were they doing a full set? I rolled over not impressed...still upset from the late sound check...but then.....the full harmonies of "Lady" woke me up and I had to go. I truly had to go upstairs. Wiped the eye boogers, ran to the side of the stage, and as if I'd never been asleep, partied with the background vocals - dance steps and all. D put on a full show. Everything we've all wanted to hear...including the Brown Sugar encore. Praise Jesus! I didn't even need drugs to get that high! So happy that the power of music still has.....well, power.
So much power in music. I'm glad everything worked out in the end :).
