well, i hope expounding on my poll helped with the having to pee thing!
yeah, i'll ALWAYS choose to go to the show. i mean, it's nice to get a chance to meet someone you admire and have a good experience, but it's always SUCH a crapshoot. but musically, the people i love just generally don't let me down.
in any event, when i made the poll, i was thinking specifically about people i know who will make the choice to wait somewhere for a CHANCE to meet someone rather than taking the sure-thing opportunity to see them play, which i will never understand. there are clearly people i'd love to meet, but 30 seconds of anonymous interaction versus actually seeing a show? psh.
i always want more tattoos. i have four and at least two more i'm planning. my poor mother. but i'm getting an angel for my bff who passed away a few years ago, and i'm getting an anchor on the other side (sort of...not a chest piece exactly, but kind of the front of my shoulders?) for my father who died 6 months later. i also kind of want to get something for my mom (who is very much alive, thank god) just so she doesn't feel left out. and i kind of want "our lady of perpetual astonishment" on me somewhere, because it's a vonnegut quote (it's actually on my journal) and i love it.[/ramble]
the eyeliner question was actually in no way about david, lol. i'm just constantly amazed by the number of people who are still actively, like, weirded out by eyeliner on a dude. maybe i should have just asked "are you weirded out by eyeliner on a dude?" and saved everyone some confusion.
