My big takeaway is the look in Michele's eyes when it was over
There's a new sparkle I've never seen before in her eyes
She said, "I knew you would protect me but...."
You fill in the blanks
Righteousness
I guess that's what its all about
Drunkeness
I couldn't have done what I did if I weren't slightly tanked
Not stumbling but I remember the moment
When he said that thing and I thought
Kevin you have a choice to speak now or forever hold your peace
Would I have done the same thing if I were sober?
Good question
Oh, I spoke up
I am always onstage
Public speaking is a real issue for a lot of people
I get it
I can stand on a stage and sing in a microphone
The audience is more afraid than me
Guitar players are lot like Batman
We have a belt with ancillary things like a can of Whupass
I thought
Jeff Beck, Jimmy Page, Keith Richard
Do you want a street fight with a guitar player
First of all, they are probably smarter than you
And they won't fight fair
With a little alchohol they think they are invincible
Perhaps because they always were
When you are too afraid to speak your righteous mind
It's a hard society to live in
The feeling of my hand on his throat
It was majestic
When we got back in the car after the incident the first thing I did was look at Michele and ask "What did you just see?"
She vacilated for a moment and I repeated my question
I knew what I had seen
I just wanted to make sure she saw the same thing
She said
It was one motion. You were talking to me and when the door opened you moved to the right and grabbed him by the throat and shoved him away.
What really happened was that I grabbed him by throat while stepping out of my vehicle
I walked him backwards by the throat for several feet meanwhile telling him to Get The Fuck Out Of Here
The look in his eyes which only I could see told me he was suddenly afraid and knew he was Check Mated
And perhaps ready to leave after a few more Fuck You's
I really knew from the first moment it was a little biblical
The man insulting the disabled man
And only I am standing there in gap
The only one brave enough to defend the weak
And tell the bully to Fuck Off
I have a serious issue with bullies
Michele will never get the image out of her mind
For me it is like I still have a GoPro .mov in my mind where I see the whole episode with just a few lapses in the movie.
I suppose I will recover them
One by one
It's already epic
The whole family knows the story now
Music is played in milleseconds
With a great deal of planning before you ever play the first note in a song
Time slows down
