What the hell ever happened to the straight up healing power of rock 'n' roll? That's what's wrong with bands today. They all whine about bullshit. Back in the day, you had real bands making songs about how EVERY fucking problem in the world could be solved with rock. It's like they genuinely believed that we should just mount Humvee's with giant speakers and blast our way through other countries with a wailing guitar riff, and they'd all come around to the American way of thinking. Like, that kind of music was the pinnacle of American culture (the good parts). It's all been downhill since then, music-wise.
So I'm moving to Portland a week from tomorrow. I'm not sure if I should be scared or not... I'm not, but I sorta feel like I ought to be? I dunno. Maybe it just doesn't seem real. Nah, that's BS, it definitely seems real. I'm excited!
By the way, Grant - I think this next Friday is the final going away hurrah for me down here in Lincoln. Probably gonna be a BBQ at someone's place, then going to the Road House to see my dad's band play. So be here, motherfucker!
