I'm the only one at this, for better or worse.
Pretty fuzzy today. Vision blurry. Head still ringing, body still vibrating.
My mouse needs a charge so I'm waiting for that before launching into work. Took a hot bath, made myself a nice eggs scramble, started laundry, listening to a radio reggae show.
I had some summary thoughts, but they're eluding me now.
Highlights - Lily Meola (primacy effect perhaps), Mavis Staples, Cage the Elephant, TURKUAZ.
Most distinct visual image - butt bee sting.
I should explain this.
This came out when I started working on Man at Arms.
As I was driving home from the airport after my first time in LA for the show, this song came on several times across several radio stations. Exhausted, it completely resonated with me and has always held a special spot in my heart ever since. Hearing it live brought me right back to that whole El Rey experience. What a journey that was. Given my level of exhaustion at any given festival on day 3, I'm particularly vulnerable - emotionally raw and exposed after the massive inundation of stimuli - so when this song came on, it hit me like a hammer again. It's moments like this that keep me addicted to the music scene. It's playing the soundtrack of my life. And when on of the bigger hits replays, everything comes into perspective and it feels alright.
