The Pains of Being Pure at Heart
SATURDAY: Due to our busy day, photographer Malia missed one of her favorite bands, The Pains of Being Pure at Heart. Luckily for her we came across the band’s singer, Kip Berman, who upon hearing of her plight went down on one knee and serenaded her with an a cappella rendition of the band’s song “Heart in Your Heartbreak.”
“I will forever feel like that song is just for me,” Malia told me afterwards. “It’s my song now.” A nearby concertgoer who witnessed the spectacle jealously muttered, “That’s not fair.”
