End of the week

[cryowizard]

Tonight was a great night -- really good music, good crowd, Alina was at the top of her game, Eric and Mel were kicking ass. Lots of applause -- I hope Eric's tip jar reflected the appeciation of the masses. As usual, to encourage the listeners to pay hard cold cash, Eric said something along the lines of having two concubines with syphilis (Mel being one of them, she covered her face in pseudo-shame) who need urgent treatment, and that the tip jar proceeds will pay for the treatment. I love this part of the evening cz every time Eric manages to find a new way to entice the crowd to pay using usually the most low-down techique...

Tonight Eric dedicated Pride and Joy, which I love so much, to me personally, saying "This one goes out to Dmitriy, the last honest man in Brooklyn". I decided not to discourage him ;)

Mel also pleasantly suprised me today.

Mel: I've sat on my cat today.
I: ???
Mel: No, seriously, I've sat on my cat today.
I: Umm...Mel, when a girl says she sat on her cat today, I interpret that in the most sexually explicit way.
Mel: I know. But no -- I had to sit on my cat to give her medication she needs, otherwise she struggles.

Mikie and I are going fishing to a Bulgarian joint in the City tomorrow, hopefully netting us some cats we can sit on :)
