AN OLD FRIEND

Today I watched the concert DVD Marc Almond: Live at the Union Chapel (2003)

Very good. Almond does a great show. Starts slow and a bit obscure then gets a bit wild in the second half finishing with I Created Me, a song that celebrates his acceptance of himself and the building of his image in spite of hate and harassment.

He is, perhaps, the longest time "out" popular singer of any. And if not, long enough to have earned his place. Very good. I am getting two more concert discs over the next weeks.

This is not from the DVD. It is just neat generic Marc. And in a setting that is very British pop compared to his concerts.
