Feeling the Freak


Last nights gig in Venice was blasé. The crowds were much smaller than usual, maybe it had something to do with the weather, or now that it’s August and nearing the end of summer the crowds are thinning. Even Tree Man was blasé. He came in and said hello, but quickly left without singing a song.
            “I just came in to say hello,” he said in a tone of voice that suggested low energy. 
            The usual crazies weren’t there.  The man that balances things on his head while wearing a fur coat wasn’t there. The woman with the white haired wig that dances to the sounds of the drum circle was missing. The freaks were on vacation, or just not feeling the freak.
