Roadies, by Dave

Have to give props to this enjoyable new Cameron Crowe show. These most recent episodes were separate, but both stories took place in Denver. Artists featured: Lucius, and John Mellencamp (Joy Williams showed her actress talent, especially with a monologue that may go down in history as one of best rants to a rock star). Themes: honesty, adult relationships. Wes, the espresso-making roadie, gets to babysit the Devil Child, and makes this child sit in the back after they spill smoothie on Woody Guthrie’s guitar. More honesty: Donna, the lesbian roadie, tells bandmember that his child is called a Devil Child. It is interesting to think about our inner child. In my car this morning, I came across a country station, and this woman had a song about how this person would never be a man. What is adulthood anyway?

Enjoy the show on Showtime, and pick up this Lucius vinyl in the shop.
