Daniel Blue – front man for Motopony, creator of the 253 heart, frequent subject of praise, publicity, scrutiny and scorn – has officially moved to Seattle’s Capitol Hill. He asked City Arts to share this statement:
Dear Tacoma,
You remade me. The seven years I spent with you changed everything I knew about the world and myself. I leave with you in my every gesture and misspelled word, in my scars and calluses, my strength and gritted poise. I go to take you to the world outside, to infect your hope and heart into more and more bricks and cracked concretes.
You have my heart forever, and I will return someday, perhaps, to raise my horde once my quest is complete. — DB •
