my name’s ‘christian’, i’m 21 from windsor, ontario, canada, eh… nuff’ aboot me… anyone catch the detroit show last night…? funny funny stuff, esp. the opening about buddah, christ and moses playing golf… hehehe… although i think the trouble with the sound equipment kinda took away from the punchline… all in all, still mostly stuff from ‘void of course’ other then the reading of ‘curtis’s charm’ which was weird cause before the show i had ‘fear of dreaming’ with me in the bar below the club and my girlfriend who is new to jim was kinda looking through it, and i was like ‘here, read this’ opening to ‘curtis’s charm’… you kiddin me? hehehe… anyhow, he’s still doing ‘i want the angel’ so he hasn’t called it quits on all his older material… um… only disappointment for me was that he didn’t perform ‘message on a phone machine’, kinda a close to me… anyhow.. after the show me and my girlfriend we’re welcomed in backstage with him and he was very very talkative, which was a surprize. ‘going on about kentucky shooting incident and somewhat columbine… signed a book and cd for meee… ;p   nice nice guy… hardly wait for another book… \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
