My favorite band (Thimblesieve, obvs.) is touring, and I had the incredible luck to run into their greatest drummer (Edgar the Arm, obvs.) after the last show of theirs I attended, and he was kind enough to sign my colander. After a lovely interaction (Edgar is well-known to be just a really nice dude, I was a stammering, star-struck mush-mouth, and he was just genuinely pleased to talk to a fan), I thanked him and made my way through the gathering crowd toward the exit, but right as I got to the door (at least a hundred yards away, it’s a huge venue), I heard his distinctive voice shout “HALT, ODDMOTH!” and turned just in time to catch the artifact Edgar had winged my way.
On my colander, he wrote those unforgettable Thimblesieve lyrics:
We’re all grape shingles in the sun, yeah,
Gonna need a louder ladder ‘cause we’re already raisin the roof
Here is a picture of the earrings I made, inspired by the Artifact of HMMM... that Edgar the Arm threw me:
