Anticipation
May. 5th, 2004 01:15 pmIn a scant 17 more days, five incredibly talented Canadians, three of which are handsome Newfoundlanders, will come to my city. They will be in a theater, and I shall go to them; yea, I shall fly forthwith to their presence and wait with great eagerness for their emergence onto the stage.
And they will be bearing instruments, which they will play with great vigor and skill, and tempo swift enough to make my head spin.
One will have a voice like a bright brass trumpet, and pound out rhythms to rattle my bones upon his drum.
One will play every instrument in the world, and look charmingly surprised when he is cheered during his accordion and violin solos.
And one will bound around the stage as though his shoes are on fire, and no one will be able to resist his bellows of "VERTICAL MOVEMENT! VERTICAL MOVEMENT!" Because he will wield stage presence with the impact of a lightning bolt. And a bouzouki. Don't forget the bouzouki, that's important!
And they will sing in glorious, full-throated rowdy harmony, and two thousand people will sing back at them. Including me.
And it will be Good.
