Oh, You Pretty Thing

Posted on February 5, 2017October 3, 2023 By Priptona No Comments on Oh, You Pretty Thing

Today has not been good (perhaps the odd ranty post gave a clue to that!).

I need cheering up, so I am going to share this lovely photo by Ullstein Bild – for several reasons:

1) The 5×5 tour was frigging awesome (but I wasn’t a mega fan then – ETERNAL regret).
2) Stadtpark looked like a particularly amazing gig (I’ve seen bits of footage over time…an outdoor venue that looked amazingly intimate. Wunderbar!).
3) I love that inky shirt Jim wears (though you can’t really see it in this).
4) He looks happy and… **sigh** and, well, I don’t usually need an excuse to ogle, but if I need one – today I just needed it (to ogle, that is).
