Tim T here at the chipped. HUGE DAY. I have always had "fans". Why? Just a chemical thing. My wife is used to it now. We go out to eat and I make "friends". We went to Nawlins in 1999. We went to celebrate our engagement. We go to a Commander's Palace. A ritz place. All blue suits and pearls. I wear a crushed purple jacket,black pants+shirt and two-tone b+w Jimmy Page loafers. Mrs. pre-FEzz wore a blue geisha dress. We enter. T party for 2. They look us up. T party for 20? No, T party of 2. My "real" last name is rare,what are the odds? Another T in town?
We go upstairs. Our waiter, Tommy, gets hooked on me. He keeps coming over and fawning. The head-waiter , Raphael gets jealous and sits at our table
I'm paying $200 a plate. He tells us tales of lost love as we chew. They screw up our order. Too much gazing. The manager comes over with free flaming desserts and sits down and chats. It takes patience to be a star. So many fans to placate.,,,,,,,,,,???????(((((((((((((((((((
One "Fan" is as Good as a Million
I learned young how to make an impact. Sulk 75% of the time. The other 25% of the time do what comes "natural". I was 6 . Church recital. I hated church. I couldn't relate to all the sand in the tales. I liked horror comics. The
other "angels" smiled and sang. I sulked and lept from the stage. I was wearing white shoes. I made 17 fans that day. The next Sun. I was legend.
"There is the boy with the white shoes

So damn easy. I was collecting lackeys. I dabbled in performance during my school years. My best show was in 10th grade. I was rassling with my friend, JEFFIKIN, he pushed my head through the music room window. BLOOD EVERYWHERE Fountains of red. I wrap my gym shirt around my head and start running home. Gorgeous gym teacher sees me and drives me home. She was aghast. The blood turned her on. I get 46 stitches. I made 36 fans from my gig. The sweet gym teacher always blushed around me, she admired my grace under bloody pressure.
I go NUTS. I'm 19. I take some writing classes. Seduce them. I make 16 fans. 10 women. I take it on the road. I make 211 fans at my readings. Poets get jealous and ban me. Play crap R+R make 1100 fans,that is how many free cassettes I handed out. Make 7 fans at every gig. Then BANNED!
15 long years pass. 2008. See DICKS get inspired. Make new Power-trio. Get three gigs. Hand out 75 cds. Make 61 fans. Then bassist has breakdown+drummer od's. I have gotten "soft" ,no bans this time. Flounder around. Join MLP . Talk JUNK. Make 226 friends/fans? Kill two super-power duos. Both super-power duos made me zero fans
I tell Mrs. Fezz two weeks ago. I QUIT!
I get phonecallls. Two gig offers. Opening for Cinderella tribute+ Heart tribute. I burn bridges. Tell both SCUM club-owners to FLY KITES
I get a phonecall tonight at work.
RRRRRrrrrrriiiiinnggg Rrrrrrriiiiinnngggg
"Yeah?"
"Tim T?"
"YEAH?"
"Bruce from Fiesta Motor Lodge"
FIESTA MOTOR LODGE HOSTED PUNK SHOWS IN 93.
"I remember you Bruce. You wear learning bass."
You must remember "every" fan or they HATE you. This was 20 years ago. Luckily I have SUPREME MIND POWERS!
"You do remember me."
"Sure I do."
"I found you on YouTube.LOVE YOUR NEW STUFF."
We talk for 41 minutes. I get his address. I'll send him some JUNK. He asked when I was playing again. I tell him NO MORE R+R. Poetry now. He is sad? He says he will play bass. I tell him it is a waste of time. I will end up HATING him if we do. I invite him to my "comeback" poetry show. This will happen in 2014?2015? NEVER? He is thrilled.
"Great talking to you Tim. I'm a BIG fan."
"Thanks Bruce. So am I."
Tim T sits at the chipped. He is a STAR.One fan? One million fans?ALL THE SAME......he is happy. The world is his ROTTEN clam.
