A Million Reasons for Wanting to Carry on Living

Friday, to the Bufalo Bar for the final How Does It Feel To Be Loved before the Buffalo Bar closes at the end of the year. Since I went to the first one in 2002, when I was still in my twenties, I felt that I should go to the last one, plus it's ruddy CHRISTMAS, and if that's not the time to drink sambucca and chocolate cake flavoured vodka in a basement bar listening to my musical youth, then when the hell is the time? I had a good bop to the Smiths, The Vaselines, Gloria Jones, Le Tigre, and The Velvelvettes, and The Yeastie Girls' You Suck (honestly, where else would you hear this 1992 riot grrl anthem and people would know it?) but it was at about 1.30 when Ian put on Her Jazz that the 19 year old me came out of her shell and I went a little bit mental with the pogoing and screaming.
