I'm feeling a little ragged today, as I was up way past my bedtime last night at a concert--76% Uncertain, Electric Frankenstein, the Bell Rays, and the Damned. I've written before of my love of the Damned, and once again they did not disappoint. I was at the front of the stage, right between Captain Sensible's monitor and Dave Vanian's mic stand, and I was instructed by the roadie to help the good Captain with the song titles on the setlist because "he's blind as a bat". The show went out over the inter-waves yesterday via streaming video, so I'm interested to see if they archive it. They played many of the best cuts off the new album, as well as a few older favorites like "Blackout", "Love Song," and "A Brand New Day".
And the Bell Rays! Holy crow, the Bell Rays. Absolutely phenomenal.
Speaking of tours, mine begins in just a few days. In addition to a few school visits, I'll be at
Anderson's Bookshop in Naperville, IL at 7:00, May 13
and
Blue Willow Bookshop in Houston, TX at 4:30, May 14
Hope to see you there!

I'm going to see the Damned when they play NYC on the 15th! Wooo!
The Black Album is my fav.
Hella lucky! Sounds like you had a blast!!! KOL out today right?
Hey! Thats awesome, glad you had fun while you were there. You think you could do me a GINORMOUS favor? If you could, I'm still gathering questions for our interview on Thur. You think you could make a post about the interview and tell your fans that if they have any questions for you to go to my blog and post the question in a comment on the Prep for Daniel Waters Interview blog so I can gather more? Thanks so much for letting me interview you! Its a real honor.
