I just got the loveliest Facebook message from an old mate from art school.
Hello there ,
I have now recovered from the shock of pregnancy and birth sufficiently to tell you what I clearly forgot to tell you before.......it's kind of inconsequential, but no one appreciates it and I thought you perhaps would...
When I was 9 months pregnant we went to see the Dead Kennedys play. No Jello Biafra, unfortunately, but East Bay Ray was cool - in an aged junkie kind of way... in rose tinted Ray Bans... looking like he works in a Library in the 50's.
I got escorted to a chair (of all things) up some stairs behind the sound desk, directly opposite the stage ! The bouncers were very excited because they already had one pregnant person there ... So, It reminded me of you playing 'Holiday in Cambodia' on a morning at Swan Lane, (were we used to live). Even as I was getting kicked apart from the inside and could feel the inside of my rib cage with every blow.
I like the picture, (facebook pic), it's cool, you should be in The Breeders !

It's cheered me up so much.

Edit - Might be because I'm drunk.
