RIP Buddy
I meant to post this last night, but I went to bed early.
Rest In Peace, Mr. Butch. You will be missed by many.
I remember seeing Mr. Butch when he was the King of Kenmore Square, back when there was a Kenmore Square. Or at least, back when there was something left of it - the Rat was gone, but Deli Haus was still there, Fuel was still there, the Iron Lung was around the corner, and down the street, An Tua Nua was still Ri-Ra. He used to wander back and forth up Comm. Ave., or hang in front of the Store-24 on the corner across from - what the fuck is that place, Bertucci's? Pizzeria Uno? - and just sort of be weird and silly back when I was walking to Axis and Karma when I worked there.
After the death of the Haus, I saw him more in Allston, in front of that Store-24, most often hanging out with that crazy Asian guy that doesn't really talk to people very often - the one dressed in all black leather with spikes and shit that sort of mumbles like the kid with no tongue from the People Under The Stairs and rumor has it that if you are mean to him he'll kick your ass - and they'd just kick it and be drunk.
He was always really, really nice, and occasionally prophetic. He will be missed.
There is a memorial service on Monday - I can't seem to find the info currently. I'll post it if people are interested.
If you want to learn more about him, he's got a MySpace page, a wikipedia page, and tons of stuff on YouTube.
