Dame Darcy
Death by Doll tour
Fall 2006

“Dame Darcy is coming, Dame Darcy is coming”. “All hail our leader of mischievous fairy tales and creator of all
Great creations ”Film, dolls,
Crafting, comics, fashion just to name a few of this
Witches trade.
The northwest would be blessed with her majesties presence.
Yet only as far as Portland, so I quickly wrote her asking, begging and pleading for Death By Doll (DBD), to come just a lil further north and play their magical melodies.
Also, the Dame would be including a book tour of her illustrated version of “Jane Eyre”, so much to see, so little time…
DD then asked me to call her so we can discuss arrangements, after dialing the digits I discovered that her drummer Christopher resides here in Seattle and also plays in ARKADE, I was able to book some extra signings along the way at literary houses, and a warm place for her to lay her pretty head if need be!
Though I ran outta energy to attend the Portland appearance, I was not going to miss the night in Olympia. As usual I can count on Xtina to be my co-pilot.
We arrived early and Christopher (DBD drummer) offered icy PBR, and accompanied us in the dark back ghost bar.
A boy was playing his electric distorted guitar in great northwest fashion, a circle of folks circled around him Indian style on the floor.

Then DD arrived and complimented my hairstyle, in which I informed her that it was my “George Washington Do”, we laughed and then went about our way, (she wrote about this in her journals online), (even said I am beautiful),
(Yes I am blushing),
A puppet show was next and we somehow missed it completely. Xtina and I are great
at talking.

DBD was setting up and damn they were hot, electrical, out-of-this-world dreamy. DD performs and prances as a Meat Cake star. Her wailing, faint screaming and angelic harmony melted my aura.
It was over before you knew it and we chatted, giggled and traded tales of road tragedies and heroic mishaps.

Joey Casio took stage and he is by far “hubba hubba” of the month around here! Electric stamina, great hair /attire and boy can he dance! Jumping in the crowd, tweaking knobs on his gadgets and making the young studs shriek. I told DD he is a sure fire MeatCake hero if I ever saw one.
The night in Olympia ended with naked twister by the puppeteer from earlier in the night. Xtina was designated spinner!

DD decided to lay her pretty head at Christopher’s in which I promised her my wee ones would be disappointed, they had been so thrilled to have DD at their home. But my children would get to meet her at the book signing on Capitol Hill the next afternoon.
Arriving in the middle of her discussion at Coe Books, I was impressed with all this woman has to say, the way she lives, thinks and breathes. Dame Darcy is a strong feminist/environmentalists Wiccan, whom is educated on the rhymes and reasons behind her cause.
Darby Jane absorbed every word that DD spoke.
When the discussion was finished, Darby Jane eagerly gave DD a drawing she had made for and a suffer gate doll of Dolly Madison. SailorHank had a Meatcake signed and we then whisked away to Nikel & Jenines.
The Comet was on the agenda for DBD that night and I tried to get every person I know in Seattle to witness the sheer genius behind the unicorn inspired lyrical fairy.
ARKADE opened which most knows is Miss O’s favorite NW band.
Pure heaven, Kelli is really really really gorgeous! There are some people you meet and feel a natural attraction to their being, and Kelli is one of them for me. She sings, plays guitar and writes the music in ARKADE.

Miss O n Kelli
Nikki Sugar is also a sweet soul (keys/synth), and then Christopher (drums) a musical genius with an attractive presence. Their music reminds me when you are daydreaming and deep in the daydream you realize you’ve been driving your automobile for miles and don’t remember, it’s that state of in between. And they are not that sissy pop dreamy nonsense, they are more of that “ I woke up in the bathroom stall” dreamy.
Okay!
dame darcy n ChristopherOn with DBD, this performance out shined the prior night in Olympia. It was the last night of a 90-day tour. I had one of my best nights in Seattle since the big move; Darlene was there Steve B, Danielle and of course Xtina!

Ginger coyote makes my heart go boom...... Category: Dreams and the Supernatural
Ginger Coyote stole my youth without knowledgethe
echo of her voice rang through the Cactus stalls
I wiped and ran and was caught in her web
there she was so graceful, so posh
I must've turned red
surrounded by sleazy, meaty , raunchy broads
hey just like me,
I could not pry myself from the beer bathed stage,
though I was hardly of age
she grabbed me and pulled me to dance with them too
I embraced that encounter
decades have passed,
i hear of the queen of punk
she will be back in our streets
our hearts will go boom
black eyeliner and tights
the blush will be rouge
she shall arrive,
in chariot with young boys, she calls toys,
bring me a cocktail and let's make a mess...
to once more bring back thee image again....miss oblivious 2006

A garden of ROT

a garden of rot,this and that Current mood: frustrated
yes that's how I feel at times
dried,wet and rotting. when you entered my life you were so impressed: with the this and the that, That I did, the that, that I said!
The things I stood for made you love me , now we hollar, because I am so this and you are so that
stating how things are lame and so uniform,so boring and peaceful,you say this and I have to say that, "to just be opposite". Rebeling was sexy when it wasn't against me, against us and who we are.
With dozens of offspring and responsibilites so conformed.I wail my fist in the air, you raise your voice.I love you 'til the end and as gramps always said "this to shall pass with time"......our love everlasting it's hard at times with me being me & you being you......

It is an old tale, perhaps embellished by the Malayan fishermen who so often recite it. It is a tale from a generation long gone, from a place the sea has long swallowed. It began long before recorded history, upon a rocky outcrop known among seafarers as the most celebrated Sake House within the Japan Sea. It was this setting, perhaps, that was the motivation for a ship full of voracious bootlegging opium traders to beguile, with the aid of their very trade, those most beautiful of hosts upon their ships. It is said that when the haze of the dragon cleared, the captors and their prisoners each began a new life. The loathing pirates at the bottom of the ocean and those Shanghaied Geisha, with their timeless beauty now peppered with the salt of the seven seas, eternally embracing the life of their former captors. Friday December 22,2006 Show starts at 8 p.m. sharp-Midnight The Balazo 18 Gallery 2183 Mission st SF (415) 255-7227 $3.00 21 & over Catering by: Lionheart Entertainment from: Cap’n Oblivious, Ari Shine (LA), The Stars Misplaced,Franklin Ex(LA), The Floating Corpses, Evolution Rainbow (SF) Movie Short Premiere of Shackgirl by: Dogswan Zine readings throughout the night from Miss Oblivious " Please click the link below to approve or deny this comment.
