Danbert and the Mekons
Last night was like my birthday and Christmas all rolled into one. Seth kept the
home fires burning while I went for the first time to the World Cafe. Because I
am a superfan, I went to see Danbert Nobacon howl and growl some tunes
from his latest CD The Library Book of the World. Then I got acquainted with
the Mekons-- who were like a raucous Wurlitzer (if Wurlitzers did reggae beats
and high kicks). They were awesome! I loved them! I loved the whole show,
and after it was done I had a kind of glowing happiness that comes from seeing
and hearing new fantastic things. It was the thrill of discovery and the
satisfaction of a night well spent.
I also bought a poster and made them sign it. I'm such a nerd!
