  • A Stained Soul Cringes at Small Details in the Mirror of Embarrassment
    A Stained Soul Cringes at Small Details in the Mirror of Embarrassment Woke up this morning, poured a cuppa, and opened the facebook machine. Right there at the top, a photo of the Fox Theater marquee touting the 70th birthday celebration for Colonel Bruce Hampton, Ret. Made me happy to know that so many amazing people -musicians and fans – had filled the Fabulous Fox to honor this half-mad, totally kind genius. And then I scrolled down a few posts and read the grim news. During the epic finale of this four-hour show Bruce pushed 14 year-old guitar whiz Brandon Niederauer into the spotlight. The boy was shredding. The Colonel walked over and bowed to his latest protege. Then he fell forward, draped across a stage monitor. Classic Bruce antic. The solo continued, the band wailing. The solo ended. Everyone expected Bruce to jump up. He never got up again. The music stopped, the ambulance took away the guest of honor. A few hours later, Colonel Bruce Hampton flew away. I’ve been in a kind of shock all morning. He was a friend of mine. Nothing about that is unusual or special, though it does mark me as one lucky son of a gun. Aside from his deep genius and complete dedication to his craft, Bruce was one of the kindest and most generous cats you will ever meet. He was everybody’s friend. We were friends enough to chat at parties, to enthuse together in the lobby of the Variety Playhouse after a Sun Ra concert.
