after the flood

yamamanamaA woman, whose name I believe was Jess, had a tattoo of a flock of bats and a moon and a black feather, of a crown and a heart, of a pegasus, Chinese writing and a wolf, of what I think was a smiling axolotl surrounded by an aura of watercolor. A blonde woman had a tattoo of Rick of Rick and Morty and a horsehead and a dreamcatcher with smears of watercolor against the feathers, glasses and gauge earrings and a septum piercing and eyebrows that gave her a perpetually shy look. A woman had blue and purple hair and a crystal pendant and a tattoo of a wolf breathing a gout of swirling flames.
They weren’t exactly sure what genre the band I Prevail fell under. She said screamo, which may or may not mean emotive hardcore with screamed vocals or post-hardcore or metalcore.
I found Ammonite by Nicola Griffith for a dollar. It wasn’t a dollarydoo because I wasn’t at Boomerangs, where all currency is temporarily transmogrified into dollarydoos upon entering. A woman browsing the outdoors section had a pendant of a woman sleeping on a crescent moon, her friend had short black hair and a rainbow colored dress. Inside, they had what seemed to be every book by Kenneth Robeson and then some. Wikipedia tells me it’s a house name.
I got an Italian sub at Pauli's because I haven't had one in a while. I'm not sure if they have a bathroom but Quincy Market, where the trees are garlanded in jewel-colored lights, does so FUCK YOU, THAN SHWE.
It was cool but it didn’t feel that cool until night fell. I didn't see Gabriella but I did meet plenty of puppies, including a pug and a shih-tzu daschund mix although I don't think he was really a puppy. The Tall Chair Brigade was in full force. They had set up a phalanx across the front so I was forced to sit in a crappy location.
The booklet just had the program and a lengthy list of sponsors and benefators.
The Cowboys Overture reminds me of Copland and was used in a 1972 movie about cattle herders.
The William Tell Overture is in four parts: a prelude, a storm, a ranz des vaches which is used in pretty much every cartoon in scenes where the sun rises, and the March of the Swiss Soldiers, made famous by The Lone Ranger and quoted in Strauss’ William Tell Galop and Shostakovich’s 15th symphony.
Funeral March of a Marionette would be described as a lesser known and rarely performed work if it weren’t for Alfred Hitchcock and much later on, Tales of the Leet's Romeo and Juliet. A marionette dies in a duel. A funeral procession commences. The mourners have a drink and a bite to eat before returning to the funeral.
The conductor called it Dvořák’s Pastoral (everyone has a pastoral symphony, named so or not, apparently. If you’re Cowell, I think they’re all pastoral), and said that he wrote it in the course of two months. It consists of an exposition with birdsongs played by flutes, a surprisingly fast adagio, a melancholy waltz, and a triumphal and turbulent finale.
burning question: How is it that we have a Q Anonymous follower running for a congressional seat?
