Girth Radio Presents…
I miss rock n roll:
I miss music that keeps me up late at night and is the first thing I think about when I wake up.
I miss making mix tapes. Even when I’m not confident around you, with you…rock n roll can be strong for both of us.
I miss music that forces parents to demand it be turned down. Immediately.
I miss music that threatens the establishment and all the bullshit values we’re supposed to quietly inherit and inhabit.
I miss desperate white politicians fumbling to enforce Christian morals.
I miss glibly dismissing desperate white politicians.
I miss us vs them.
I miss the leather.
The swag.
The style.
The audacity.
The shock.
I miss the shredding. Extravagant and utterly unnecessary yet divinely beautiful guitar solos.
I miss the dreams.
I miss the hope.
I miss the sword and the shield.
I miss feeling invincible.
I miss freedom.
I miss dreaming.
I miss dancing.
I miss the belief that all things, in all ways are possible.
I miss the sonic windows into the worlds…
I miss New York City.
I miss the UK.
I miss Hey Ho Let’s Go.
I miss rock n roll.
