Hold up. Whats that song?
If I didn’t have good music to listen to I’d probably lose my fucking mind. I basically got through my shit hole high school by listening to Tool, Foo Fighters, and massive amounts of techno. In college I was with the Strokes, Blur, Rage Against the Machine, Alice In Chains, and more heavy doses of techno. And in California it was everything and anything but especially Thee Oh Sees and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. Always more techno. I love dissolving into the music.
I can’t wrap my head around today’s music so I just listen to older stuff or whatever I used to. It is important that I have a good playlist while I’m banging out the gelato. I need high energy up to the point where I’m nearly high. I need to feel like I’m in front of crowd of people and just waiting until it’s so hot and crazy that I dive into the mass and disappear. So while I’m alone at the store from 6:45-1:30 there’s Agent Orange, Deftones, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, and Thee Oh Sees blasting. And of course more techno.
I don’t necessarily get to interact with many people these days especially with covid around, but I think I’m a pretty cool guy to be around. I mean I don’t give a shit who you are. If you are cool you are cool. Here in Jersey who cares about all that bullshit category of this or that. All I try to see is the persona, the character, and especially the eyes. This blog is sort of my way to put myself out there for people to see. I want everyone to know that I fucking love this shit. It makes me go crazy and the busier we are the crazier I am.
You can’t pay attention to society today. It will suck the life out of you. It’s like that one guy you know that isn’t even really a friend but somehow you know him. He’s always asking you to help move something and he’s like “I’ll buy you a slice.” But somehow you don’t even get that slice and you end up with a pulled back. That’s what society is today, always taking much more than you get out of it. Fuck that.
Music is free, sort of. It’s liberating unlike so many things in our civilization. So do me a favor, go find that awesome song you can’t help but go crazy for and blast it. Blast it so your parents or roommates can hear it. Blast it so your neighbors can hear it. Lol blast it so your kid looks up for once and away from the phone. Blast is as you drive by our store. Go wild. Go crazy. Lose yourself. Feel unstoppable and drunk on your own passion.
