music to soothe...

i was reminded last night, again, of how much i truly appriciate the artistic/musical talent of lindford detweiler and karin bergquist. good evening friday night in philly. goodevening hot chai and cold weather. goodevening theatre of the living arts. goodevening over the rhine! if i had a special place (i should) it would include a comfortable chair, a warm beverage (mojito one day, chai the next), and over the rhine singing on a stage in front of me. nothing makes me feel quite as good. i get lost sitting there before them. lost in my own little world. no longer do i notice the people around me....the boy whose hand i hold, the sister leaning closer to get a better view, the cute boy a head of me who dances in his chair, the pretty girls behind me who i'll never look like...no longer do these things matter. as soon as karin takes the stage as soon as lindford strikes a chord everything else is nothing. and all that remains is me, them, and a smile on my face. i believe that no matter how many times i see them live, each time will be just as good (if not better) than the last. if only i could write, sing, perform like that....


"hush now baby, let every angel sing. hush now baby, one day we'll ride again..." -otr
