okay be honest. raise your hand if you played air guitar in the mirror and thought you were a bad assed riot boy or grrl who was up on making a band starring you?
and there was a time when you thought you'd actually make the dream a reality so you answered ads in newspapers and showed up and met for a few practices toting your little guitar around town in its second hand case with the stickers all over it cuz stickers were COOL back then...back before the world got all bland and Gap-like and everyone went to old navy.
if you were a girl, you listened to the Breeders when you were 13 while reading Sassy magazine and intermittently doodling in your sketchbook the rockin' outfit you'd wear on stage-OH yeah, you know it baby.
then something happened and you discovered alcohol or guys or both and realised that sucking face with the opposite sex was so bloody interesting and he plays guitar much better than you ever did and isn't her voice just perfect and i don't even know anyone in a band.
so you sat on the sidelines and watched...all the talent in the world strum through the fingers of the badly drawn boy on television and realise to yourself that maybe music just was never for you...
but it still aches though, doesn't it.
you still feel it, don't you? even though you think you're TOO OLD...don't ya?
ya..ya you do...ya you do and you know what?
you're not to bloody old.
:p
