FINISHING THE HAT

Post Fri Oct 13, 2006 7:23 am

To the asswipe who jumped on stage at the Fillmore and took a souvenir away with him (although I suspect you're not the Medusa type):

Your $65 ticket did NOT include my hat. Next time you decide you want a beautiful maroon porkpie hat, do as I do: Go to Arnold Hatters in New York and BUY THE DAMN THING. :twisted:

Aye I saw that dread-locked fool grab that right off ya, how he's going to dirty it up. I'm surprised the security didn't manage to get it back!

The security got it back, I made sure of it. But it's no longer a hat I would be seen dead wearing.

Feel free to sport the headwear of your choice at Brixton Phil. I will be down the front and will happily apprehend any would be hat thieves!

The hat has indeed been savaged. I'm certain that an industrious hatter could re-block it though. Maybe?

It might be my imagination but I could of sworn I saw a post on here from a random person about this hat. It didn't make any sense whatsoever until now.

Did you delete it guys?
I like life.

It gives me something to do.

Once more we are suspected of overzealous and random deletion.

You're far too paranoid MissWalshy.

No she's not. I AM. I distinctly heard YOU and Howard Hughes' shadow discussing my quasi-Masonic connections in that strange sibilant eldritch secret tongue you share. :shock:
