Yeah, this has had me thinking about all of the people from that period. Drew (with his dreads and doo rags), his chap books (of which I have most all in a box in a storage unit in Riverside (though I no longer live in Riverside and would not be able to find the box if my life depended on it), his obsession with Joy Division, the Stones, Patti Smith, Gun Club, Germs, ad infinitum; the Jurupa House off Riverside Place, Stacy, Miss P, Miss Timmy, Renee (Gade) who died on her way back from the Queen concert, and of course Donnie, about whom the original thread started, and the time we watched porn, the time we (Donnie, Drew, P, and I) went to see Exene at the UC Riverside, the time Donnie and I watched porn, the time we (Donnie, Drew, P and I) went to see the Bowie concert at Dodger Stadium and he was completely drunk and disorderly from the bottle he bought in Chinatown en route, etc. Damn, he was only 18 when Darby died after being "with" him for 5 years. I have been in a sad slump for days now. Dead from AIDS! I would understand the overdose, as he shot up, but I didn't know about the HIV. Could have been related, I guess. Sad.
