I went to see him tonight (in Austin). Nice show. He’s cute - in a non gay way. It was his birthday and we sang happy birthday. I really enjoy seeing these 50 yr olds doing their thing. Reminds me of the old days… and they seem so much more appreciative of their fans. I’m all about old rockers!!
Did he play anything off of Love Hysteria or Should The World Fail To Fall Apart? He skipped those albums at the Tempe show a few weeks ago, though I heard he played “All Night Long” and “Final Solution” in other cities.

So NOT closeted. Yup. Nothin’ to see here, Folks. DJ ain’'t gay. He said he ain’t and that’s good enough for me, by golly!
DJ sounds like a babbling old coot at the senior center, talkin’ about the good 'ol days when kids like Peter Murphy showed respect to the elders, and gosh darnit, we could still buy a stick of sassafras candy for a penny!!!
Of course he’s not.
He left forever.
Three years ago!!!
I’ve been to that bar. He’s Not Here at UNC Chapel Hill.
HAHA! That’s a pretty clever bar name.
I shot a comedy show there waaaaay back in the day. Great college dive bar.
While setting up, I of course asked about the unusual name. They told me that the 2 guys that owned the place were both going through divorces at the time they opened the bar. So when their ex-wives or divorce lawyers would call the response was always “He’s not here” whether true or not. Anyway, the name just stuck.
They’re known for selling giant draft beers in an oversized plastic cup, which is what DJ’s picture is. I had one for years, but think it got tossed in a move.

There was a wonderfully shitty dive bar up in Ridgecrest, CA called “Pretty Pat’s Place” which was run by this really crusty fat dude who seemed like a movie character. I asked him, “Are you Pretty Pat?” and he snarled back, “Pat wears a skirt!!!”
I noticed a hand written sign in back of the bar and it had a list and prices on it . . . stuff like, “Not here… $2. Haven’t seen him…$5. Just left…$10.”
I asked about it and homie told me that one of the regulars’ wives was always calling looking for him and that was the price chart that they charged him for the various lies he asked them to tell, haha!!!
