wonder is fear purified

I looked and I saw:

I looked into those glossy eyes staring

back at me

and I saw what seeing is...

what's left for those,

that are left...

to those departed....

my sister said "I LIKE your Asian tan"

I laughed out of shock

because I knew she didn't really mean to be

funny.

she was in shock too

so we embraced

reality.

'Our father is dying'

I thought to myself

"covered by the blood of Jesus!"

He was all yellow and purple.

bruised all over...like he had been beaten.

we circled around him and sang hymns for long hours

day after day

harmonizing as we know how to in family.

he loved Jesus

so we praised him as best we could.

I think he was pleased.

it was hard to tell since he couldn't speak.

but his eyes were as expressive as ever...and

he was as cheeky as ever!

I hated hearing him groaning at night...and I knew then

that I didn't know his mind

we all waited in agony

one week was NOT time

it was ETERNAL

but the clock was ticking and it was very painful to my ears.

like water droplet Chinese torture.

the pressure built in my neck and my head

and I could not breath.

at one point I began suffocating

 I could not breath

my sister, Rachelle,  walked me through it

breath in

breath out

she walked me through it more with her eyes than her words really

I knew she was choking just the same.

second "panick attack"

of my life

I had put a flower

a thorn flower

on his breast

when he drew his last breath

he didn't speak

but one tear dropped

from his one left eye

and then he died.

my sister and I cuddled his dead body for a long time,

and my brother fixed his face into a smile.

premonition:

I heard his voice in my head in a dream before he died. I was napping, just before the nurses arrived...and before I awoke to hear them tell me what I already knew...my fathers voice said to me " Robynn! It's ALRIGHT! "

and it was exactly his voice and it woke me out of my nap...

then the nurses walked us through the steps of what we should expect upon his death...although I had already read about it and already knew, I just nodded and agreed....and tried to listen to my fathers voice that it was ALRIGHT rather than their jabbering.

the first sign was that he was blind in the morning and his feet went cold.

I looked into my sisters deep green eyes and said...he's going....

we knew we only had hours left and what to say and what to do..we thought all of us we had more time...always more time...but we accepted...and we forgave...

I felt an immense pressure on my shoulders. and my head and my entire body. until the moment he died.

and when he died...all that pressure released and I felt free as a bird.

like a gentle wind blowing over me. all the weight all the heaviness gone...I took in a deep breath..

I looked long and hard at that face slowly turning to stone

I realized...Maurie is GONE.

and I hugged his dead body with my sister.

she cut off his long white mullet hair and gave us each a portion.

My inheritance from my dad is a strong spirit and a brave heart.

I loved him till the end, and with all his failures...

yet I hope to see him again.

the song he wrote for me I only heard when he was dying. I had only glimpses of my father and mainly lies from my mother.

I thought we would have had more time.

I'm left with only this

"it's alright"

and

"Death comes to us all...

your heart is strong,

have the courage to follow it"

RIP Father.

Did I tell anyone......

that in 2012 at the Radiohead concert here in Atlanta, three young females made fun of me.... I was holding my sign, wearing my derby,  whilst on the rail first level and yelling to Radiohead "I love you"! these young girls sitting about 3 rows below me, have no idea how hurt I was with their glares, laughing and pointing at me.....  I allowed myself to feel shame and embarrassment for being a 56 year old and acting like a fan-girl.  fact is, I am a fan-girl. fact is, I do love Radiohead for the gift of their music and the difference it makes in my life. fact is at 60 years old now, I am not going to allow anyone to make me feel ashamed or embarrassed for expressing my love. Radiohead bring to this diagnosed chronic depressive with anxiety disorder person, great happiness and peace of heart and mind.  I wonder if Radiohead have any idea that their music is like medication, or nourishment to some of us, in this sometimes lonely, cruel world?

my deceased ex-husband was a musician, singer, entertainer...... we entertained as a couple many times. turns out singing in public wasn't for me, I became more and more shy and nervous with each performance. anyhow the point I am making is, I think I sabotaged myself this time with getting the tickets for the April 1st concert here in Atlanta. (btw-my husband died April 1st, 2014) I think I subconsciously decided that at 60 years old, I was too old to be with all the young people and enjoy myself as much as they do at a rock concert..... I couldn't understand however, why would anyone want to be stoned. I want to remember every single damned thing. I want to be there completely. I also wanted the 45 minute drive home to be a safe one.  LOL

I know I was wrong.... I know I have blown my chance to experiencing the best high I have ever had again, that being a Radiohead concert. I hope I will come to believe that even though I only saw them once in my life, I was so blessed! when I read stories of fans who have never been able to obtain tickets to see them I hurt for them. I feel so blessed that Radiohead chose Atlanta Georgia USA to visit and put on a concert. I feel so blessed that even though I could not see their faces, the one thing that just made me so happy was that, I was in the same damned room, building, city and state with the five men(six including Mr. Deamer) that I so dearly appreciate, listen to everyday, go to that happy place with and I pray they continue to produce more music for me to enjoy till the day I die.

The Radiohead fans I meet here on WASTE and on Facebook, have been so genuine and so compassionate. I hope everyone who really wants to see Radiohead gets a chance in their lifetime, just the way I did. Peace, Love and Blessings to all my Radiohead friends!  XOXO Jeaninrainbows11011018677?profile=original

Miami Show 03/30/2017

Just wanted to put it out there that I may have some extra tickets for the Radiohead show in Miami.  The other people that were supposed to join us did not really care for the section and wanted something closer.  They are in section 311.  If you are interested, please let me know.

Thank you Radiohead, for "The Numbers"

It has been an anthem for me these days, and I hummed it to myself yesterday (along with Patti Smith's "People Have the Power") in Washington DC as I marched for love and hope with my sisters and brothers.

And of course, thank you for everything you have done to nourish our souls and and rescue our faith in beauty and truth for all these years.

With much love for all of you and your families and friends,

Carin

It just hit me....

I'm not going to see them this year. I am crying, but I still have joy in my heart... I just listened to Jonny and Thom's outdoor video's. It made me smile and melt, 11011017668?profile=original just like it did the first time I saw it. Thank you Mr. Greenwood and Mr. Yorke, you got me through  this sad time.  Peace to you both!

Miami tickets

I went in pc and app at 10 am and while the app gave me nothing, the full site through pc got me 3 in section 113. I think the full site is a better option- I've heard this from a few people.

FRUSTRATED

I am saddened that REAL fans can't get tickets when huge ticket vendors swoop up all the damn tickets and then resale them for astronomical prices. Its almost impossible to see Radiohead now outside of a festival. I literally wanted to cry this morning when I tried to get tickets and them sold out in a matter of seconds. It has always been a HUGE dream of mine to see them with my sister and my best friend and thats not going to happen now. With everything that is going on in the god forsaken country I thought maybe I would give some relief to us by looking forward to an amazing show…… but NO. I hope that maybe some of Radiohead's management sees some of our messages and takes some initiative in getting tickets in the hands of their fans who are part of just the regular public.

Never had a chance for tickets

Yesterday I came to WASTE at 11am and did not get tickets. I was ok with that because I knew Ticketmaster was selling them today. As with yesterday I got on right at 10 am. Sold out in minutes. This is getting absurd. Sites like Stubhub and Ticketmaster grab them up and see at crazy prices.I know Radiohead are getting older and touring doesn't mean what is used to. All have families and private lives. I liven in North Carolina and was hoping for Atlanta tickets. It appears I will have to pay more for tickets. Either way I will be there. 3rd time. Good luck everyone,Kent

I will be driving my [clean and smoke free] minivan from Vancouver, Canada to the Seattle concert, and then to the Portland concert.  I can comfortably fit 6 people, and a 7th would be a squeeze.  2 spots are already taken, so I can fit 4 to 5 more people.

Just help with the gas.  The more people there are the cheaper it is.

If you are only going to Seattle, contact me anyways.  If im not full then maybe you can catch a ride down and take the bus back.

Riders need to be clean and smoke-free and scent-free (I have allergies to lots of perfumes).

I will be staying overnight in Seattle and Portland after the concerts and driving back to Vancouver the morning after the Portland concert.

ROAD TRIP!!!!  and the best kind of road trip :)

Miami tickets

Can someone please help me navigate the purchase of tickets to the Miami Radiohead show?  I don't know how to get the resale link, or how to buy.  Last time I bought at the opening time and was in the very back.  I would appreciate any help.  Thank you.

New Orleans

I've never been lucky enough to see Radiohead live and being from New Orleans, they haven't played here in 17 years. I'm 30 years old so if I wouldve been 13 and I most likely wouldn't have been lucky enough to have anyone to take me. If anyone would be amazing enough to help me make my dream come true and assist me getting the best seat possible. I'd be more than happy to provide them with anything they need for a fun time and also a free drink and t shirt. Please, I don't know how to emphasize how important this show is to me and we all know that the sound in the smoothie king center is awful and how important location will be at this show.ThanksRobert
