Holy Of Holies

Holy of holies… I got to see Butch and David play tonight… from the front… they’re back out with Lucinda Williams this month for a short Los Angeles tour (genius, actually, touring in one city). It occurred to me while I was busy getting hypnotized, this is the first time I’ve SEEN them playing, in years… that is, without my back to them… I thought it was quite a revelation… how I only really HEAR them, and rarely SEE them… plus, it was gigantically refreshing to get to enjoy a show without having to worry about any details or sound issues or getting tuned or anyone else’s experience but my own… a night to sit back and relax and not have to bother with anything… weightless… just enjoy… they are so dreamy…
