An Evening With The Police
We went to The Police concert Tuesday night at the American Airlines Center. Stewart Copeland's shirt is right. It was sold out, and was the first of two sold out shows at the AAC. It was a great concert, no fireworks or big surprises, but a stellar performance nonetheless. Sting sounded, well, like Sting. Stewart Copeland was amazing (best part of the show) and Andy Summers played some amazing guitar. Still can't believe he is 64.
The fact that it is probably the last time we will see them perform together (and the first time for me) made the show even better, like it was more important because of the significance. They were wonderful, and at their best when playing their biggest hits like 'Roxanne', 'Can't Stand Losing You', 'Every Little Thing She Does' and 'Walking in My Footsteps'.
Now if we could only get Genesis to play Dallas on their reunion tour. Come on Genesis, you're just Throwing It All Away in a Land of Confusion Tonight, Tonight, Tonight. That's all.
Here's a quick video from The Police concert,

The Original Prairie Dog Video
Poor little guy is frantically searching for an way out of that box. (stop it)
He needs a passport, some Ritz crackers, a plane ticket to Lubbock, and to tell homegirl that's not how you do a prairie dog call. Rezpekt.

A Heartfelt Note To Dad, by Gordon Keith...
Thank God for dads. They keep us humble
____________________
Dear Dad,
Just a little note to wish you a Happy Father's Day. I know we haven't spoken in some time, and that is partially my fault. I have had allergies.
I hope you are not as embarrassed of my being your son as you often "joke." Most of my problems are behind me and I'm actually doing fairly well now. I now dress exclusively as a male, and I no longer cut.
I am employed. I do a show on radio and TV, and I write a column for our local paper. I know what you are thinking – "Oh, boy, Gordon dun gone and gitted hisself a fancy job." Well, the jobs aren't that fancy, Dad, I promise. I am still a humble man. Sometimes I even slap my handlers for ordering me $15 drinks in front of unfamous people.
I have so many fond memories of my childhood. I remember the little piglet you got me and sis for a surprise one day. I also remember you bludgeoning and quartering it in the living room for steaks and winter sausage. Good times.
Remember when I stole the neighbor's lawnmower for your birthday present? I was 5, but I will never forget what you did for me. Thank you for taking blame in order to keep me out of trouble. Too bad it was your third strike.
Many years have passed and I don't want us to grow even more estranged. That's why I have included some publicity shots of "my latest look." Keep 'em close; they haven't dropped yet.
Speaking of pictures, I have kept your photo – the one with you making that funny face – on my bedside table all this time. Do you remember when that picture was taken? You had just emerged nude from a whorehouse and a police dog latched on to you. You could always make me laugh. Even when you were punching me. Happy Father's Day, Dad.
Your Son,
Gordon
P.S. Are they still screening your mail?
Dear Son,
I am assuming this is a little joke for your column. I know you are obsessed with having a hard-scrabbled upbringing for literary purposes but keep me out of it. Your mother will have Sunday dinner on the table at six. Don't be late or drunk.
Dad
Dear Editor,
Please omit my father's response and publish with new publicity shots. Make me look humble.
Gordon

Patti Griffin - "Be Careful"
I got to see her play in Ft. Worth recently, with my girl poecat, who is a diehard fan. I fell in love with this song, wish I could find a better video of it, but the performance is great nonetheless.
Sidenote: I hear thunder! It's Friday night and it's about to storm. I think my pillow is calling my name...

The Shins - "Phantom Limb"
You might remember The Shins from the movie 'Garden State', where Natalie Portman said their song 'New Slang' changed her life. If you haven't seen that movie, you should. Soon. This is the first single off of The Shins' latest album 'Wincing the Night Away'. I love this song. Maybe you will too...
