leia131Hey Seniors: Does anyone have a spare ticket to graduation for me? I'd really like to go, but I can't unless I have a ticket... Em, I figured yours would all be spoken for, but if not...
In any case, Renee invited me to project grad, so I can see you all there if all else fails. I'd really like to go to the actual ceremony however. I know more people in this class than I did in my own.
In other news, after a lovely afternoon of chilling and watching Into the Woods, Janeea and I went to the Stafford concert tonight. Why? To watch Aaron Mack.
Aaron is absolutely captivating. He's the most interesting thing on a stage. And it's because when you watch him, you can see how throughly he's enjoying what he's doing. Every fiber of his being is completely involved in it, and he never runs out of energy. Every hair in that mop on his head moves in time to the beat. It seems that every article he's wearing has been carefully chosen to create whatever look he's striving for. When he plays, he doesn't play the music. He IS the music. He gets so INTO it, every muscle vibrating with the sound, every motion spontaneous and moving with the noises his instrument is making. The word self-concious is not in his vocabulary. (And is there anything he doesn't play?)
The feeling I get when watching him play is similar to the one I get while watching him act. Every minute movement he makes fits into his character. If his nose twitches, it's because it's supposed to. If he plays the bass vertically or shakes his trombone violently or wears a curly wig, it's because it was meant to be.
Aaron Mack makes you believe.
Aaron, I know you read this sometimes, so don't let this go to your head, but you are one of the few people I know who has talent and who's head is not so far up your ass that you won't ever do anything with it. In short, you are one of the few people I know that I truly believe will go somewhere big.
Just remember us when you get there.
P.S. Does anyone have the song Honky-Tonk Badonkadonk? God, I want that song.
