Saturday night, I went to a concert of Tom Waits
covers and it was brill. It was a girl singing mainly
ballads and doing it with great spirit, enthusiasm and
humour (very important)
Of course I wanted to approach her and as I was
wondering how to do it she came up to me saying
"- You're a Tom Waits fan ?" I nodded "- I thought so."
Was it because I was mouthing the lyrics as she was
singing or because of Small Change cap and my gin
soaked eyes ? She wouldn't tell.
Anyway, she's a music school teacher and she told me
that she was studying The Black Rider with her kids
(Harry, are you there ?) and told the whole piece was
inspired by a Carl Maria von Weber Opera
called "Freischutz" which I didn't know. Does any of
you know it ? Is the resemblance striking ? I'll try
to find it. She also told me she managed to get 50
kids singing "Chocolate Jesus" together. I was
impressed. She was charming, and of course even more
when she was singing.
I was about to explain I had a cyber-fiancee and a
cyber-lover, when she told me she was gay. Story of my
life.
Tonight I'm going to meet a canadian film maker Guy
Maddin (Alex, are you there ?). I've known him
through Tom Waits.
I've seen 3 of his movies "Archangel", "Careful"
and "Dracula" (a ballet on a Mahler simphony).
The man's insane but a true poet and artist as well as
a great tongue in cheek humorist.
Should be fun.
Eric
