Grace Jones (aka Strange)

The other day I saw Grace Jones perform here in Sydney at a free show. It much more than I thought that it would be. Previously my basic thought process was that she was a freak of nature. Now after the show. Yes, she's still a freak of nature but then she is also a truly creative and unique artist who really appreciates her fans. In own words, "You'd better be good to my f*ckin' fans!" The back story is this: she was doing a version of "Pull up To my Bumper" and at some point during the show she started inviting her fans up to the stage to pull up to her bumper. Anyway, as all songs eventually do, it ended and the fans were being ushered off of the stage by the guards. Some of the guards were being a little rougher than they should be and that's when Grace caught wind. Enter the quote.
