zeitgeist

2008-08-24T16:24:30Z

everyone needs to do whatever the can to see zeitgeist. ive never been more ashamed of letting america become what it has. the government has us completely controlled and we are letting it happen through religion, conspiracies, and our own money system. you need to get angry. we need to do something about this. the movie is 2 hours long, and a very easy torrent to download. they even have it in sections on youtube. im begging everyone to do what they can to spread the word. we are not powerless this is our country and we need to take it back.

dear truth,

we all know smoking is bad. we dont give a fuck about any magical about. do you actually think there is one smoker on the planet that isnt aware of the effects of smoking? if someone is smoking, they probobly dont care.

no one should have have to live with the things you've seen
but you're living anyway
so can't stop the car and put her in park
and i step outside (god i hate this part)
when i see what i saw what i thought was a life that was more
than a chore and just doing what i need to get by
i don't care if you leave or stay
but you might as well split
because it's not the same as it was
when we said our last goodbye
and if you want the truth: i was hoping one of us would pass away
because it'd be much easier then
we would all get together and think about when
we were young we were dumb we were numb but in love
and i'm done so i'm sending out this letter today

i had a dream that i went back in time like that scottish dude from lost. now, sometimes you may think that you wish you could go back and change some things because of the way you presently feel, but thats not the case. people dont miss the feeling of a previous time, they miss people, because people are what change. i can honestly say there was nothing scarier than the thought that i would have to work that hard all over again, just to get back to where i was.

life is unforgiving, so take what you have and make the best of it. which shouldnt be hard, your all pretty cool people.

ok, so this last sunday i drove to new orleans to see streetlight manifesto. i went with murphy and my little brother. my goal for the whole trip was only to be the first person in the door, and the closest to the stage possible. little did i know things would get a whole lot better.

i was expected the first band to suck, but suprisingly they werent that bad. a couple times during they're set me and the trumpet player made eye contact and got really into it, so for one of the songs the trumpet player dedicated the song for me and jumped into the crowd and we danced together.

nothing great happened with the second band, but i almost got put on stage to play a song but a kid named tingle was picked.

for subburban legends i was dancing and having a good time untill one song where the bass player played something sick and i pointed at him and we both laughed. when they played a really fast beat song i feel someone dancing behind me, i look back and its the trumpet player from angry banana, the first band that played. so we have a laugh and keep dancing.

then streetlight played. the entire time im the closest person to the stage and im screaming along to every word. after their set i asked dan to throw me over the rail so i can grab the set list. he tries and i get about half way over and fall, to catch the stage with my left hand, so with my right i reach out and snatch up the set list. then the security guard tackled me. while hes got me in a pseudo-security lock hes trying to snatch the set list out of my hand along with every other fan around me, but i stuff it in my pocket they escort me out of the building.

after the concert i went down to bourbon street to sit down and smoke a cigarette, and regroup my thought.

after the cigarette im walking down bourbon street and outside of larry flynts hustler club i see three of the members from suburban legends, included the bass player the remembered me. i stop to talk to them, i tell them about my goal to be the first person in the door. they thank me for all this, and i do all the same. then the unbelievable happened...

they asked me if i wanted to party with them.

naturally i say yes, not caring how much it cost or without know that you have to be 21 to get in this club. but sure enough suburban legends is big enough to where they not only get me and murph in, but they got us in for free.

joey had to stand outside, so we had to cut it a little short, but i told mikey, the bass player, that after i took joey back to the hotel i would give hima call, and i got his number written on a hustler club napkin.

i walk out of the club completely not believing my luck when me joey and murph go to turn on to ibenville i lift my head up and about half of the musicians that played that night where standing right in front of me. included jim from streetlight manifesto, the greatest sax player to ever live. i can do nothing but laugh that im seeing all these people. most of them laugh too, and i start shaking hands untill i noticed jim. i push everyone else aside and i started talking to him about everything that has to do with them and people from pensacola.

so after i had a few beers with him me and murph start taking joey back to the hotel.

once we dropped joey off we start walking down decateur so get back to the car not knowing that we were about to go back in front of the house of blues.

and then it happens, tom (the lead singer of streetlight) and the trumpet player walk out the front door of the house of blues. me and tom start shooting the shit, and i start thanking him for all this stuff, while joey and murphy must have been star struck or something. and then finally i ask him if he was going to meet up with jim and suburban legends down at the hustler club, he says no and that hes just going to get a bite to eat. i say ok and we both start walking different directions. then i stop, run up to him and say im sorry, but can i shake your hand? he says no problem. we shake hands, and he walks off into the dark.

the rest of the story goes down hill because most band members start passing out and me and murph just decided to drive home at 3 in the morning.

all in all, it was the greatest night of my life.

streetlight manifesto

yeah they're new album comes out this month (i already have it, so if you want it, just ask, and that does include you) and they're playing in that dirty old town that everyone loves.

heres a little sample of the greatness at hand

somewhere in the between.

So you were born, and that was a good day
Someday you'll die, and that is a shame
But somewhere in the between was a life of which we all dream
And nothing and no one will ever take that away
You had a love and that love had you
And nothing mattered, you were fine
And some will complain, they're just bitter, what a shame
They know that loving and losing is better than nothing at all
Maybe the times we had, they weren't that bad
And everything else was part of our path
We sang: "I don't know where we go from here"

yeah. this shit is bang'n.

ive really learned a lot about myself in the past few months.
ive learned that you cant always get what you want. yeah, weve all heard it our whole lives. really look back in retrospect and tell me that you dont feel like youve been robbed of something. the truth is that you havent. you make everything in this world for yourself. no one is going to help you, you might think friends will but they are only there to ease the fall to the point where you feel like your missing out, but your not.

ive learned, or realized more so, that in any path of wreckage ive left behind me that im glad to see a smile on a lot of peoples faces.

i just wish that life didnt deal such vague cards. i wish that i had a bullshit detector so it wouldnt be so hard to tell if a wonderful mence of words had a deeper meaning that ends up in you gettin shafted.

while i really love these scruphy bastards im living with now, the one goal i can actually say i have is to die with reminiscent thoughts of something other than beer and the guys i drink it with.
