That’s just Brodie Rush, doing one of his nuttier turns as the psychologically disintegrating character of Pink in The Wall, a rousing rendition of which some locals put on this past Friday and Saturday and are putting on at 8 p.m. tonight at a building called La Esquina.
The sound of an exhaust fan in the side of a building adjacent to the parking lot, coupled with the rotor noise of a not-too-distant ghetto bird set the perfect, military-industrial soundtrack Saturday night outside La Esquina, an office-ish building just north of Southwest Boulevard. By about 9:30, the seats inside were mostly filled with people chattering, fanning themselves with programs and drinking free cans of PBR.
