Going through my albums,

I miss OLD Smashing Pumpkins...


what do you miss?

Old Weezer (Blue Album type of stuff)
Old Blues Traveler (like on Four)
Rage Against The Machine
The Verve Pipe

I miss being able to enjoy mindless rock music. I know there was a time in my life that I would've eaten up everything Nickelback puts out. But now I'm jaded, and I complain that all of their stuff sounds the same - even though that sound is what would've attracted my former self to them in the first place.

I miss Disco. I enjoy music I can move to without feeling dumb. Some of that stuff just made you feel like shaking something. Now it seems like if you want to dance, you're stuck with teeny-boppers or hip-hop, and neither are really my cup 'o tea. If I wanna move at a show I'm at, I'm usually required to mosh. And that's another thing . . .

I miss being able to mosh! I used to love to get in a pit and throw down. Somewhere along the line I grew up. Now I see these kids beating the bejeezus out of each other and think, 'What stupid asses.' What happened to me?

I miss lots of stuff. I sound crotchety now. Get off my lawn.

In no particular order:

I miss Pearl Jam when they were actually a rock band. Ten, Vs., Vitalogy.

I miss Animal Bag

I miss Alice In Chains

I miss Soundgarden

I miss Stone Temple Pilots

I miss Dave Williams (R.I.P.) Drowning Pool should have just called it quits.

I miss distinguishable voices - even if it was Journey, at least you knew it was Journey as soon as Steve Perry started singing.

theres reunion tour talks goin around.

If Scotty can keep his veins clean, maybe. This is good news!

I miss Cobra Commander and Duke throwin' down in the back yard.

I miss being a fan of rap, hell-music in general. I wonder when it was that my listening to music like it was lifeblood passed by.

Stone Temple Pilots is going to have a reunion tour this summer. Which is one step towards my dream tour line-up: STP, Alice in Chains, Pearl Jam
And with all the reunions happening... maybe we could see a temporary Soundgarden reunion as well.

I third that.

I miss Genesis from back when they were still a prog band.

I miss Rush from the Signals -Grace Under Pressure - Power Windows- Hold Your Fire era

I miss the Dave Matthews Band of old that was trying to sound different from the rest of the crap on the radio

I miss WXKE from about 1988-89 when they had an almost perfect mix of new music and classic rock

I miss when I heard new music and it was thrilling for me. It was exciting.

Now everything sounds the same. I understand now why "old" people said my "new music" sounded just like a rehash of somebody else.

growing up sucks


ps...I still like my "new music". It's just "old" by today's standards.

I miss going to numerous concerts each month. At one point, I was going to 4 or 5 shows per month over a course of about 7 or 8 years. All of a sudden, right around the age of 27, I stopped and since then I've really had no desire to be the avid concert-goer I once was.

I miss high school lunch. Especially those peanutbutter bars with the chocolate on top... mmmmmmmmm......... ooo and the square pizza, I mean come on, who doesn't miss that?

and karoke at the Deer Park on Tuesdays.
