I got my new list from Alternative Press yesterday and WOW. What an Amazing Issue the next one is gonna be. It is the 23 year anniversary issue and they are featuring bands such as Christie Front DRive, Youth of Today and Grade just to name a few. Some bands I have have loved forever and it brought back great memories just reading their names. I have to go dig through some OLD film stuff to see if I can squeeze in a few GRade photos and hopefully see them in print.
I remember being so goddamn mad when Grade had a video on MTV. ahah. I was like "fucking Sellouts" but at the end of the day, I still love Grade and I love this song. Reminds me of being on tour and hanging out and seeing the whole country more times than is fair to those who haven;t even done it once.
Friends made, friends lost, sunsets, sunrises, flat tires, blown gaskets, busted tubes, kisses on the side of a house way back in 97, couches stained with german shepard piss, 3 a.m. dance parties with crust kids, crater lake, windmills in cornfields, eggplant fries, frisbees, handwritten letters instead of emails, care packages for a safe journey, birthday cakes, vegan treats, blackened eyes, cold spaghettios, 110 degrees, "no sweet tea", mansions with leopard sheets, cookouts, buyouts, catering, no sleep, dirty, stinky, 11 p.m and the sun was still out, Candian rockies, sayin "fuck the stage, we're setting up on the floor", pissing off sound guys, selling merch, load in, load out, Graceland, Portraits in Cotton fields, pissing on the side of the road and missing home all at the same time just to name a few!
This song also reminds me a lot of one of my Ex's as well. She sent me a text a while back that said "every time i listen to Grade it reminds me of when i used to drive down to the beach to visit you with the windows rolled down." We have finally gotten to a point that we can be really awesome friends and she just got out of a kind of bad relationship and I think she may be going route with a guy that she has been friends with forever and that makes me super happy for her. He is a fucking rad dude!
Me and my other ex, I think, are working towards a healthy friendship as well and that makes me extremely happy to say the least. We took several amazing roadtrips, slept in the Element, got freaky as Elvis shook his head, toured with Daughters, had our own private dance parties, ate toooooo many quessadillas, planted a garden which failed miserablly haha, made more sandwiches than you can imagine <i think i owe her about 500 thousand more> not sure. ahah. But yeah. Seems like i have made a lot of Reconciliation lately and That IS An AMazing Feeling.
That's me on the far left with 3 of my best friends in the Candian Rockies while our band, at that time ,was touring Canada with the Wolfnote , who are Amazing Friends that I will never forget

The other day I saw someone wearing a T-shirt with a unicorn that said "TOFU". It had your name written all over it.
