Give a little respect

I love fuckin’ Erasure. I didn’t remember that…isn’t it weird how you can love something and forget about it at the same time? I saw them in like 1990 at UC Irvine and it ruled…Andy Bell in a green-sequined wrestling singlet talking about eating cucumber sandwiches…

Anyone else love that band? There was a show on the “gay channel”, Logo, that apparently is only available on satellite? I dunno. wev. Anyways, the show was basically a whole Erasure concert beginning to end, with all the crazy outfits and dance numbers and skits. They had a couple encores, including one that was just brilliant: After going offstage, Andy and Vince came back onstage in little bathrobes, Vince with a small keyboard and Andy with his mic….they started a simple simple song with a few notes on the keyboard and vocals. It was cool as hell. Vincent had a little vehicle with all his equipment in it…it looked like the basket from a crazy hot-air balloon.

Whoa, I just went off on Erasure for a while there. I think I’m the gayest straight guy alive….
