A fortunate happening

kaberettI was at a gig tonight - an Indelicates gig, in fact, as most of the gigs I go to are - and I was gesticulating wildly to sebastienne, about something or other, specifically a line in a song from a couple of albums back that I consider... deeply unkind and unfortunate and short-sighted. (On the other hand, this is one line in one song.)
And someone sat behind me somewhat nervously said "er, sorry if this is creepy, but um I COMPLETELY AGREE WITH YOU."
... and a beautiful friendship based on awkwardness and politics appears to have been born: I gave him cookies @cnlester baked for me because Boything; we flailed enthusiastically; I gave Indelicates backstory of the "I've been a fan of this band for longer that you've been ALIVE" variety (only a slight exaggeration); and -- yes. Wonderful beautiful talking-to-strangers, and we are making plans to go to gigs together in future, and -- here you go,emperor, a fortuitous happening on Friday, December the 13th.
And now we are finishing up in Beaconsfield services and I am going to continue on my accidental way to Oxford, the better to Velvet Goldmine.
