The Definition Of “Sick”

Posted on April 20, 2022October 3, 2023 By Priptona No Comments on The Definition Of “Sick”

I follow Etienne’s account on Facebook as well and I shared this photo on my feed with this comment:

I know Jim was sick at the gig but it is still one of my most favourite bootlegs of them all. And I love all the photos I’ve ever seen from this gig. I don’t think he even looks sick – not in the true definition of the word – but in the modern day definition of “sick”? Definitely! Sick and sexy AF! Wh’d have guessed he was puking his guts up that night? I don’t think it’s at all detectible in this image. I do think I detect it in the audio of the bootleg though.

For over 40 years this man has been the most incredible performer.
