It's to crazy not to blog. I wasn't sure of the exact date or even year. But it was the Adore Tour at St Andrews hall in the spring. A friend told me he had a friend who loved he pumpkins and would go to the show with me. Lainie Sunshine, thank you Jamie. A two hour drive to Detroit was all pumpkins talk and a plan to rush the stage. Being sunny and spring I couldn't help check out young Lainie's blue eyes. We got lost once but I found the way. Lainie wasn't wearing a coat and as the sun went down while we were standing in line it got cold. I gave her my coat. Then she let me in it with her. Inside the hall before the show Billy Corgan walked right next to us. Just quietness. hundreds of people Quiet. Maybe it's what inspired young Lainie, once the pumpkins took the stage. She told me "put your finger in my belt loop". We didn't stop till we were front center stage. it's on the forum as my favorite concert exp. I'm still not sure of the exact date. the other day at the grocery store i bumped into Lainie (it's been years). I told her about how I took poems that I wrote about her and mixed them over pumpkins music beds. That she could check them out online under bob jenkens remixes. we've been talking again. Lainie pointed out the date. It was april then? what year? on friday I came home with my daughter who had fallen asleep. I laid her down then went to open a window. When I opened the blinds something fell. It's my ticket stub. The Smashing Pumpkins April 10 1999. how long has this been behind this blind? almost seven years to the day Lainie. Have you ever put together a puzzle? two pices kinda on top of each other. Slide it just a bit and they fall and snap together. those two go together. like spoons on a couch so are....... never mind. what do you know Lainie? We'll make the show no matter where it is. I'll just keep holding on to young Lainie's belt loop.
