: Temple nights
One of my favorite "I don't have to be a parent tonight, so let's get dangerous" pasttimes in Knoxville is attending Temple, an alternative dance event, held on Saturdays at the Electric Ballroom. It can be a little like the boardwalk scene from "Lost Boys" played out with a cast drawn from the Island of Misfit Toys. I feel at home there. I'm one of the broken, myself.
The regulars make the event. As a rule, they're some of the nicest and most polite people I've met. For instance, my friend Bunny is a wonderful lady.
For a photographer, Temple is also the promised land. There's always something interesting to see.
