Another post where anything I say won't come close to reflecting or doing justice to the IRL experience, but a couple of thoughts:
I wish I had gotten out here to see Blonde earlier. He's good at what he does.
But with that said "what he does" is a pretty... shall we say challenging lifestyle? Didn't realize that for all intents and purposes he's been living in L.A. Lite this whole time. Kudos to Blonde 'cause I don't know how he can deal with it all the time. I'm just not exposed to this kind of stuff living in Houston. Blonde's been living in the real deal out here for two years and I didn't even really get that. And although it's the "real deal", he's mastered it with a good bit of grace and ease. My respect for him has gone up a lot, and in a way, I think he can understand where I'm coming from too when I am bearish or critical of "the scene": he came out here, mastered the game, and is now actually leaving because it was ultimately unsatisfying to him. This place doesn't deserve Blonde and I wish him nothing but a king's helping from here moving forward; he deserves it.
