the shoes make the man

next in my ongoing series of weird things that customers say:

let me preface this by saying that there are MANY bizaaaaare people that come into the store, but it is a rare occasion that these seperate walking human behavior exhibits happen to find themselves and become friends... but when this happens (and it does) it is magical.
one of these magical meeting of the minds happened with 2 of our arty, filmschoolish, my-mom-did-drugs-while-she-was-pregnant customers.

anyway, for the first time ever these two dudes come in together which was amazing enough on its own. and then one of them some them some how sees a stack of cds behind the counter which we had waiting to be played on the store stereo. most of these cds were drews, and if you know drew at all you know he is a dance-dance-dance-dance-dancin machine (watch him get down, watch him get down) aka he LOVES electronic and dance music. (also enjoys electronic dance music) so these cds were of course all the new and hip dance cds out there today.
this kid was able to pick up and that and asked whos music it was. i told him it was drews, and he just looks at me and says
"well tell drew to keep his shoes"

and didnt say antyhing else. i looked at him and i was like "umm.. he will"

then like 5 seconds later the kid looks at me with his kooky face and his crazy eyes and goes
"his dancing shoes, i mean. tell drew to keep his dancing shoes on"

man, that was odd.


and thats my story.

i hope it translated in blog form as well as it did in real life person to person story telling form, cause drew sure did find it funny.
