Orville Redenbacher IV at Yo La Tengo show – w4m – 20
You: A cross between Orville Redenbacher and a Little Rascal. Clad entirely in white and bowtied. Tightly wound curls I’d like to sift through with my fingers. Maybe get them stuck in your locks. You rocked out to Yo La Tengo. Let’s rendezvous. I want your popcorn in my mouth. Let’s be popcorn rulers of Brooklyn.
It simply doesn’t get any better than that.
