"Well I love the sound when I smash the glass..."
Everybody's going to SOCIAL DISTORTION tonight.
I'm working. Of course.
Fuck it.
I don't need to go to shows to enjoy the music. I'll just pick up a couple of six-packs, go home, and play my own damned CD's and have a good time without getting literally kicked in the face by some crowd-surfing fuckup teenager or figuratively kicked in the chest by some chick.
Wasn't asked to go, anyway, frankly, and I know why and understand completely.
I think, sad fact is, I'm just not into the rock-show thing anymore. Even though I can be a cranky bitch, I'm not an angry youth. I don't crowd surf or get into circle pits or mosh or any of that bullshit. My idea of a good time isn't shoving people around or getting elbowed in the eye-socket or getting a size eleven to the back of the head. I used to, sure, (should have seen me in 1991 at the NIN, FRONT 242, 808 STATE show...and, rumor has it, I was witnessed in the crowd at a LIVE show, but I will not confirm nor deny that rumor) but now I'd much rather just kind of stand there and drink a few beers and listen to the music. I've been a human barrier far too many times and I'm just sort of 'meh' about all that anymore.
Give me a nice rockabilly band, chicks in pretty dresses with their hair done up nice, and some cheap beers and I'm in heaven.
Or hell...Depending upon how you look at it ; )
