The concept of something coming full circle might
often seem like cliché but I think that I like to believe in such symmetry. It’s
bitten me on the arse in the past but in recent times there has been a positive
aspect to the notion with this past Friday night having been the most
mind-blowing of all. Somehow, a seemingly very grand plan came together.
This was
having Amy Rigby come and see The Dahlmanns. If Amy hadn’t written the song
that they covered then a large chunk of my existence in addition to lifelong
friendships simply would never have come to pass. I think I kept gibbering on
about enormity to the point of maybe seeming like a hippie. If there is indeed
a state that could be declared as cosmic then it was Friday night in
TivoliKjellern in downtown Moss Rock City.
That was the night that Amy performed “Dancing With
Joey Ramone” with The Dahlmanns, just as though it was seemingly destined to
be. Those in attendance will likely never forget it. The fact there are pictures means that it actually
happened. You can’t photoshop fun. The guy upstairs is likely looking over his "little dark shades" as we go about our business.
It was remiss of me not to mention Death By Unga Bunga. I was so carried away with things. This was a local derby with the two hometown sides coming together to create a pre-stupid season Julebord for the discerning rock'n'roller. They've come a long way since I first saw them at House of Rock 1. I was so distracted that I even managed to miss out on meeting Sebastian's dad.
