Skinny Puppy’s Kill to Cure

(performed in Ljubljana, Slovenia, as part of the Head Trauma Tour, 05.07.1988)

1991– Croatia and Slovenia declare their independence from Yugoslavia.

you see? ….you see what i did there? i so badly wanted to post something pertaining to this topic that i posted a song with little relevance, but has a video of it being performed live in Solvenia.

allow me to explain my ardency: my boyfriend is from Novi Sad, Yugoslavia. err, Serbia. err, i don’t know what to say since Yugoslavia doesn’t exist anymore, but he wasn’t born in Serbia, he was born in Yugoslavia and emigrated to Canada before it even became Serbia. at least, i think he left before it became Serbia. i can’t remember. s’matter a’fact, Croatia and Slovenia have very little to do with him. if you were ever to put him in the same room as a Croatian i would expect nothing less than for him to rip his head off. ….for they are mortal enemies. 

at any rate, you can understand my enthusiasm for this subject.

…..or can you?

dun dun dunnn.

hee hee hee…look at those crazy letters. it doesn’t even look English!

i promise after this that i will limit all entries relating to the boy/my love life. this one just kinda fell into my lap. besides, it was either this or write about the publication of The Diary of a Young Girl (better known as The Diary of Anne Frank) in 1947 or the maiden flight of the rainbow flag representing gay pride in 1978. ….and neither of those hold much pertinence or forbearance in contemporary times.
