– My husband ranting about the death of art c/o shows like The Voice where “a glorified pop-star gets to be the ‘rock-and-roll element’ ‘cos he has the madonna tattooed on his fucking ball-sack.”

Happy Dead Mother Mothers Day!
nicolebyer:

I don’t ever want to forget things about her, and I get so jealous when people talk about their moms, and for whatever reason when people mention moms I cannot...

The 1st amendment to the constitution of the United States of America says the show and it’s brief (and frankly negligible nudity) fall under creative freedom of expression - much like Equis, Oh! Calcutta!, Hair, and The Blue Room which all...

coreybrown:
Sometimes I coach a practice group/indie/lloyd/harold team and I see something amazing happen. I see a show for an audience of one. I see an amazing set that nobody else in the world is ever going to get a chance to see. I get to pocket that memory and take it with me for the rest of my life. I…

I have to admit I’m fascinated by this.
I’m also fascinated that there are people who are saying they don’t want to see this happen. Why not?
The worst case scenario is that it won’t work and you won’t like it or you won’t want to watch it and you won’t watch it.
But what if it works? Wouldn’t that be crazy? Even if it doesn’t work, it will be interesting...
