if you're listening, sing it back

i was going to riff on that line for a while, get a good whine going. but i realized that you can't sing it back if i'm not singing. so i'm going to work on that. because gods do i have a lot to say.

instead, i'm going to tell you what it was like when they played it on wednesday. i won't get too far - this song is too closely tied to everything i am for me to do it justice. that's another longer story, one i've hinted at here and there, one that i'll recount some other time. what happened was this: they started strumming that riff, the one so desperate and delirious and defiant that everyone has to try and play it once or twice. it took a few seconds for the ringing in our ears to clear enough for us to hear it. then the entire theatre started jumping at once.

that's a lot of solidarity for an anthem to loneliness
