"I had to understand that that abused child lives in me, but I am not that child. That's a long, slow learn, because when you say you are not that child, part of you says, 'Does that child have to go away?'' he says, voice fraying. He reaches for a handkerchief, wipes his face, and continues. "You come to understand that it's like the rings on a tree. That person gets to be there all the time. You don't have to be that person to hold that person.”

amidst the thousands of people leaving the taylor hawkins tribute in los angeles, we ran right into him, and he was as surprised and happy as we were to see a familiar face. he always made me feel so understood, in all the chasing live music i do. such a wonderful person.
megh, pierre robert, and me outside the forum in los angeles at night.

a photo of an old film photo, three people on a couch, one on the floor behind it, with balloon animal hats. old furniture from the 20th century (!) as this was 2003, cliche old brown living room vibes.
