I have a hard time differentiating between fiction and reality when it comes to famous people. I think it's because famous actors play fictional characters. And since I've seen them only as those fictional characters, and not in real life [with my own 2 eyes], it's only appropriate that -- in my mind, famous people are fictional characters.
They could be as fabricated as the movies are, as far as I'm concerned. I even have a hard time thinking that places like Hollywood or Delaware actually exist since I have never seen them with my own eyes... I think I have problems. Or, I just need to get out more.

Soooo, on Thursday, I go home to see Tenacious D in Seattle. And, not until just now did it hit me that Tenacious D is real people! It's Jack and it's Kyle and it's going to be real life. I am going to see them with out the filter of the TV between us. Tenacious D will no longer be fictional, they'll be real. As real as flatulence. As real as a spatula.

It usually isn't so weird for me to think of bands as being nonfictional because bands [for the most part] portray themselves. And, a music career is more plausible for me to fathom than a movie or TV career. However, Jables and Rage Kage are actors themselves. So, it's like a double whammy for me. Coupled with the fact that I have followed them for over a year now and almost came to the realization and acception of the fact that I would probably never see them live. But -- that's going to change. And, I am psyched. Pumped. Filled to the gills with glee.
