Chloe don't know better....

...Chloe's just like me. (only beautiful) A couple of years difference, but those lessons never learned. (don't ya know?) Chole dances tables in the french quarter. She's always been given, so i can't always make her laugh. But i'm proud tosay, that i won't forget time spent lyin' by her side. The time spent lyin by her side. Dreams like this must die. And a dream like this must die. A dream like this must...
~Chloe Dancer (Mother Love Bone)

I just feel that those lyrics describe how i'm feeling lately......
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And this is my kind of love. it's the kind that moves on. it's the kind that leaves me alone.
~Crown Of Thorns (Mother Love Bone)

that's in addition to the first group of lyrics....i must say Andrew Wood was a fantastic pianist and lyricist.

So i'm at work right now, and there's NOTHING to do. I'm just listening to music and typing and doing some odds n ends....Gordon left about 30minutes ago, it's nice working w/ him in the office for a change--we were talking about the Hoplessly Devoted To You compilation series and how after 88 Fingers Louie and Dillinger Four weren't on them anymore, the comps changed. Bands like Thrice and Avenged Sevenfold give the cd's a whole different perspective....
..I popped on Norma Jean Bless The Martyr and Kiss The Children and we were both rockin' out. NORMA JEAN is coming w/ ATREYU to the House of blues 3/13/05. That should kick ass!! i've never seen Atreyu and i'd really like to, as would i really enjoy seeing Norma Jean.
For more info on Atreyu's tour: http://atreyurock.com/tour/tour.html

i said to gordon "It's funny. One day I'll come in with The Lawrence Arms, Dead Kennedys, Avail, or whatever, and the next day I'll come in with Lamb Of God, Helmet, Quicksand, and Norma Jean."

I guess it all depends on my moods. Sometimes I'll want something agressive and angry, or depressive and angry, or aggressive and angsty*, or aggressive and pessimistic, or aggressively passive....that's the great thing about music, there's so much out there to choose from, why not let your mood determine what you listen to and when, its nice and you may learn something about yourself.

*do not confuse anger and angst--they're 2 different feelings. anger is, well, anger. angst is like anger of youth, to quote Dillinger Four, or at least use a song title to describe angst, Maximum Piss & Vinegar. Anger is seething mad, and you want to (here comes the Fight Club quote) Destroy something beautiful. Angst, you're just wanting to brawl, run around, reak havoc, whatever. Y ou want to be generally destructive, where as anger you have a target. That concludes today's lesson in Avoiding Semantics 101.
