we were up on the balcony to the left of the stage when i looked up at the ceiling and saw flames. i tapped jess on the shoulder, pointed up and she said that has to be some kind of effect. this was 2 seconds prior to four police men running past us to gain access to the roof. it was on fire and it was only the third song which sucks because i figured they were going to kick us all out. i’m thinking how the fuck can webster hall be on fire, is this for real? by then we could smell smoke so i take jess by the arm forget my jacket and get down to the lower level as fast as we can. the kills and the rest of the crowd was clueless until security came on stage, took vv’s microphone mid verse and said okay stop drop and roll to your closest exit people.

luckily nobody was injured and the firefighters determined it was only a small electrical fire. they opened the doors back up and the kills got to finish the show while kate moss watched the back of vv and hotel from the lime light on stage right. we slipped past the vip guard during the encore and mingled with all of them after the show. moss was drunk and the only one allowed to smoke cigarettes on the floor because i guess when you’re beautiful you’re privileged too so rules don’t apply to you.

jessking

the kills are playing webster hall on thursday night and i get to go because my darling friend jess king has spare ticket. jamie “hotel” hince is a lucky mother fucker to have kate moss waiting for him in london. i wonder if pete doherty is jealous but probably not because he’s with miss winehouse someplace all cracked out. pete moved out of kate’s place last july, she fell in love with another guitarist then declared engagement by september. moss is more of rock star than the two of them put together. brilliant, i love it. if there was anyone’s life that i could trade for mine it would be kate’s because we have the same measurements so all of her clothes would fit. i think the next person i “date” should have an english accent and play the bass.
