Continued Sitting here, listening to some of this old stuff, I'm struck by how good it is. I'm not sure I could have vocalized it at the time, but, retrospectively, it may very well have been Pornography that made me get the alternative in alternative music - at the least, on the mellow-side. Embarrassing Blog Confession (EBC)*: I was such a big fan in high school, I once wept at a Cure concert. I had tenth row tix at the Rosemont with my high school sweetheart for the Disintegration tour. It was flat-out amazing. To this day, I consider it the best show I have ever seen. They closed (or, perhaps, ended the initial set?) with, "Pictures of You." I was months away from leaving my girl and heading off to college. The music seemed somehow deeper - more amazing as the spectrum of sound flowed from the stage right before us - and purer, live and close-up. And the conviction and passion...So much more real, more intense in person. I was months away from college. I knew that the love was real for now, but doomed for real... When the song ends, you know it's over... * Now and after trademarked and registered to me. As in, "Do you have an EBC?" "Ohhh myyyy gaawwwd, I have soo many EBCs from just this weekend that I won't be able to post them all for, like - you know - a month." Tried to post this last night during my stupor, but couldn't get blogger to go. |
Some parts true. Many made-up.
