1. I went to watch
The Dark Night Rises the day after the shootings in Colorado. I got the cinema and the first thing I noticed was the extra security. There were 3 times as many attendants. People were even being searched. Imagine going to the airport - yeah it was exactly like that. I think it was a welcomed custom though. Once I got into the cinema (one of the biggest premiere screens in the world) I was surprised that it was so full given the events of last night. I then, almost immediately, looked around me considering where the nearest exits were and which seat offered me protection should some crazy fuck make it past all the security. I'm not going to lie I have quite often imagined what I would do if some psycho unleashed bullets into my cinema. Would I duck? Do I crawl under the seats? Do I hide under others and play dead? Because I'm a bad ass (and there really were no other seats) I sat on the aisle in full view of the door. Fortunately nothing happened at the movie and I was able to enjoy Christopher Nolan's greatness that is
Batman: The Dark Night Rises. Major sad face for those in Colorado.
2. Tonight somebody asked me who my favorite top 3 musicians were. I frowned a little because it's such an impossible question. You'd need a top 3 for every period of music. Just like you would with art. But because I'm so into the rock n' roll revolution period, that happened here in New York, I replied with 1. Janis Joplin, 2. Patti Smith & 3. Lou Reed. That was that.
3. I watched the sun rise in New York. It was awesome. Although I felt a little judged when we were walking home through the Upper West Side at 5:30am in the clothes from the night before. I don't think people appreciated the fact that we had dressed up just to welcome the sun into the world. Haters.
