de de de Building.....Missing Foundation! Ignore the White Culture! All that good stuff! Actually Peter Missing solo, screamed'n'screeched word over backing track.....The man pours it out in quite the big way...held the audiance, Foundation heads many ifnot most..... Until about 5 or so minutes after they pulled the plug on him, he didn't go anywhere, but by that time there wuz a little drift....He stepped onto the ledge of the second level from which the performance emenated, in a near jumpers pose, and ranked out the club and whoever else don't want his revolution heard... Was actually quite the trip.....Building might have been a little leery, Missing Foundation shows, barring the last one I caught, have been know to end in riots und club trashings, and earlier in the evening watched very large bouncers drag two volks down und off steps, these volks didn't want to budge, which wuz odd, hanging on there wuz a loosing proposition ifn I ever saw one.... Kinda figure them a little lucky because bouncers were swinging fist, like they could've woulda been mucho ugly...Actually there wuz a little flurry at the bottom of the stairs at one point after one dude twisted himself sorta on top of the bouncer....Tried to wave the guy off, saying he wuz out, chill, and I think he came to the same conclusion and he just dragged the guy out...Both went out into the arms of cops, so they might not be too happy..... Tried to find out what went down, being I only saw the finale, bouncers said guy wuz spitting, tossing beer down the steps, thought that mighta been in response, to mebbe someone else getting thrown out, asked what rilly started, pressed the issue, und coversation broke off... No volks I asked had a clue, took place on the private party level... [Satandamned Reporter Mike]...... Definately helped prime the adrenalin for Missing, started real late, wuz anxious and wondering whether he'd do it up at all....Und he did, not quite the same punch as with band, and tons of noise and percussion, but not as less as one'd expect....The man really rails and has something to say...Killer....

On a different note, yes volks, I finally went up to Feotus und said "Clint Scraping Ruin off the Thirwell Jim! I've always wanted to meet you!"... <hhh> Anzway, spoke to him there for a minute or two, und probably made a complete d*ck of meself, after I'd told him I'd seen him way back when, und a little more recently, and various observations regarding, started to feel like I wuz doing an interview, felt all icky! Huh huh huh.... Really wuzn't intended, just wanted to say the above, and just jaw, mighta got carried away...Told em I'd seen him around a few shows, und asked him if Lydia ever accompanied him, she lives in New Orleans [? memory fade]... Gots a band that he'll be flying out to produce shortly.... The dudes definately solid, actually took some time to talk [or wuz that listen] to a drunk und raving lunatic like meself! I have a problem getting nobodies to do that, huh huh huh.... I wuz kinda flipped that a well spoken and talented volk would...good stuff.... Und in future, should the occasion arise [hopefully a show, or two even, he definately does it up] think I'll cease refering to him here as "Scraping Ruin off the Jim. etc. etc."... Think we settled on Feotus... Think I told him I'd take that assocation, him und Feotus as oppossed to any other possibilities, to the grave.. [Satan wuz I f****d up...und that wuz just the begining of the night, kinda just got home about an hour ago, don't ask...]...
