Our Man in Europe/dave delacroix/ "Day of Achievement."
(Happy Birthday: Los Angeleno: Dayton Emerson!)
BAH! Hungover! I felt like/looked like a King Charles 2nd Spaniel without a Nose! (As WE speak or AS we spoke?... U gettin' this?) I'm MOLTO superstitious, except on Wednesday? Today was Sunday. Now, it's Monday. It's CARNIVALE here where I live in Sicily, Sciacca-town. The folks HOOKA-WHOOPA, past Friday, the next days, 24 hours, kiss U -AVE MARIA: It "Va-bene!" It's OK. And it's WOODSTOCK, Bambino City! The folks put a BIG effort into dressing up their Kids: Costumes, indulgence, etc. Nothing too much? Which may BE the Cultural roots of Fascism? I've noticed it in Germany, too. "Da Kinder!" Perhaps an embroiled fascination with an Inter no-Imbroglio-Embryonic dynamic, a SPAWN, combined with hard times? "Buddy? Can U spare me a dime? Self indulgent: Buddy I'm gonna step on your Nuts!?... A Child's dynamic...and a Child's, unfettered Legacy: IL DUCE? And the forthcoming Weekend: ENCORE! Saint WHO-EVER's Gig, No problemo! I'm a DEVOUT Festival Dude.
My FIRST big Gig was at the WINDSOR POP FESTIVAL, 1974, 24,000 people...and they ALL said: "GET A REAL JOB!?",
which I did. I was a Kid. But nobody loved me THAT much: ergo. I didn't become - despite my forays into HOLLYWOOD, I didn't become a Fascist?
BAh! hANGOVER!...All day long. Will U smile and sing my song? (Everly Brothers?). So!!! Day of achievement! I did the Laundry. Cleaned Bathroom. Made Bed. Sprayed entire Apartment with "Floral" air freshener (the whole place stinks like a Maverick Cocaine party?) and dug out my pointed, $300 Roman leather shoes? Breathed hard on them until they shined?
OK. Cut a long story SHORT. Showered and Suited-UP: Tuxedo e'lan? Organized a fresh Salmon Paprika veggie supper. Chopped a bunch o' stuff, all in a Gastronomic of Love porpour-ie, in my piccolini Cucina: had a Cocktail, splashed some ORSON Whisky on my chops - Aftershave? - let my fingers distill a Chord on my Acoustic Guitar, wallet, keys in my pockets, writing material and a biro pen, then ventured out, based... on a day of achievement , OUTSIDE, on Renaissance Sicilian , Sciacca, Carnivale streets, expecting Nothing.
