i don't remember any limos at jane street or at the squeezebox. honestly, i don't. and i was at jane street a lot. fried but there. i remember celebrities showing up toward the end but they were mostly younger and not the kind to be pulling up in limos.

i'm sure the limo folks came in some number but when i think of those audiences those aren't the folks i remember. they're crowded out by more colorful characters, some doing colorful things.

it's not the 50 year old whippersnappers i'm talking about. it's their parents with either a) their faces surgically pulled so taut it's a marvel they can blink or b) the kind you have to wonder what exactly it is they're doing with their mistresses or c) both. there is still a pretty sizable contingent of what was once referred to as the blue-haired matinee ladies with tons of money and they show up for things, especially event type things with movie stars, on a consistent basis. but, as i said, that demographic either enjoyed AMERICAN IDIOT or didn't dislike it vocally enough to do it any damage. and, i guess, if they're walking into something about botched sex change they aren't expecting THE STUDENT PRINCE.

now if you will excuse me i have to go do penance for ageism now.
