tell me that billy idol doesn't still rock. i will punch you in the face.
granted, rebell yell was heard by the portopotties and white wedding and dancing with myself were completely missed, but it still felt the same, i think, and billy looks young as shit from many many feet away with spotlights blaring.
bodies stretched, stomaches out, left knees out of control.
a lot of people had kids there. i turned to carrie and said, "if i ever have kids i'm taking them to concerts when they're very small." and she said, eyeing an elderly couple, "when i'm 70 i'm going to be going to concerts like this." i hope that we're both right. kids with braids in their hair for me, twisting out of my arms in handsewn jumpers, and grandfathers with their hands in hers, taking small steps towards the car after the encore.
either way, all of the young punks will soften and say "aw," and billy idol's black leather will melt in agreement, and all of us "his CHEST isn't old" bitches will disappear because we don't matter anyway.
i said, "i never thought that i'd hear billy idol scream 'virginia!' and carrie said, "i know, it's silly, but i like it," and katherine butted her hips with mine and my friend lucy put her tongue in my mouth. all in all it was a good show but i came home for one reason.

I met billy idol once and he's a cock, but you have to love anyone that drives women to make out. Though I am a bit more nostalgic and prefer the GenX billy over the flesh for fantasy polish, he's still aight in my book.

billy idol is cool and all, but if i caught him alone somewhere i'd have no reservations about kickin his fuckin teeth in and rolling him 4 his vest and all his shit.
