I really can’t put my thoughts properly into words right now; I had a few days’ head start to mull over this news, but in reality, Dead Moon and their music are intertwined with so many specific people and venues and events, both personal and very public, that for me to spill it all out here seems overwhelming, and frankly unimportant, at this moment (C. nails it best, anyway). I will say that “It’s Okay” is taking on yet another meaning as it blasts through the speakers tonight, but it still sounds fantastic, as always.
