When Am I Ever...

Going to leave this fucking town.

 

when am i ever going to leave this fucking country
when am i ever going to meet the love of my life
when am i ever going to get married
when am i ever going to die
when am i ever going to... shut up

 

Seriously... I went to the courthouse hoping there would be some good music playing, and I find a band there playing some shitty cover of the boys are back in town and there's kids skating all over the place.

 

ahahaha

 

For a second I thought they were playing Sunshine Of Your Love and then I was like... "noooooooooo"... after they started playing an offkey solo (the boys are back in town) then after that, they started playing "We Built This City" by starship, and then played Achy Breaky Heart.


Why in the hell do I have to live in the town with the worst musical scene and musical tastes in the history of the universe.

 

you don't like sunshine of your love?!?!?!?!?!!

 

No, you didn't get me. I *thought* that's what they were playing but it was the boys are back in town.

As if the set list couldn't get any worse, they just played Toby Keith's I Wanna Talk About Me, now they started playing Lee Greenwood's "God Bless The USA"... I'd be surprised if they played Sunshine Of Your Love....

 

Virginia has the worst music scene ever... I mean, yeah, we do have Dave Matthews Band in Charlottesville, Blue Oyster Cult, and Keller Williams in Fred-Vegas, but that's only a little further north and in the mountains... Of course, we had the carter family and the johnny cash thing way back when. Pft... then we have wayne newton for part of the year when he isn't in Nevada.

But... you go to Southeastern Virginia around the hickish military bedroom communities and this is their idea of music. I do wish I lived closer to a city, though. There's nothing here, and when there is, it's something like this...

 

Oh come on! Come to my country and you'll feel better! Some of my ex classmates from primary school have never heard of Jimi Hendrix!

 

george. if you ain't happy in gluechester you ain't gonna be happy anywhere.


not many people like goode music. oh well. life goes on.


unless you die.

 

.w

Santa Cruz, California or British Columbia would be nice. I'd also like to go back to Alaska someday... I haven't been back to my hometown in years.

 

You should move to Sarasota, we have an awesome music scene, and im loving it.

 

OMG... you're so lucky... You have the Sarasota Blues Festival. I've always wanted to go to that. Plus, the St. Pete Times forum is really close.


Sarasota is kinda freaky. We got stuck in a flood at the end of fruitville once and our car stalled.

 

O yes. rgasm:

 

Santa Cruz does have a pretty decent music scene. Sucks to live here though.

 

Austin, TX has a great music scene, but it's too... republican.


Haha... why's it suck to live there? I know everything is pricey... Santa Cruz has really good bud and it's really clean. I was going to go to the University there... that or Berklee in Boston.

 

you are SUCH a goode listener!

 

Come to Canadee-i-o and stay with meeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
This summer, anyway.

Then I'll come to the South and we'll go to Hawaii from there.

 

Well I got tired of the silicon vally scene
So I packed up my bike and headed south on 17
I wound up ground up like a piece of meat
On the corner of hwy 1 and river street
Watching a wino walkin away with my shoes
Under a big blue sign saying,
"This Way To Santa Cruz"

I got run offa 1 by a spun in an SUV
A spandex-clad Jane Fonda wannabe
I guess her therapist told her it'd be OK
For her to cut me off and take my lane
"It's only fair after all that she's been through"
Cuz everyone's Jane Eyre in Santa Cruz

So I waved down some ravers in a beat up micro bus
Said, "do me a favor guys, call me an ambulance"
They said" We'd like to help, we'd let you use our phone
But we're off to make Santa Cruz a Hate-Free zone
Check you out next time that we roll through
Oh by the way enjoy your stay in Santa Cruz

I heard the sirens coming as I lie there in the mud
Just before I passed out from loss of blood
I woke up in the police station
Being booked on a sleeping ban violation
Sherrif told me "Son you snooze you lose"
Guess that's why there's so much crank in Santa Cruz.

(well shit)

Was a time when Santa Cruz was OK
Now it's just a suburb of San Jose
And all the easy riders and the sweet hitchikers
Been pushed out by the soccer moms
And weekend Bikers
With their chatruse Harleys
And Lee press-on tatoos
"Strike a pose bro, you're in Santa Cruz"

All the flower children with their lovebeads and guitars
Bought up all the coffee shops and bars
Now they're hassling the homeless
And harrasing the hippys
For acting like they used to back in the sixtys
(saying) "Do as I say, don't do as you've seen me do"!!
Cause "hippy" means hippycrite
Here in Santa Cruz

Yeah everything that made this town so fine
Got knocked down in 1989
Loma Prieta beat this town to death
And we hope it gets better
But don't hold your breath
Now it's just a swamp of attitude
Man I can't wait to get the fuck out of Santa Cruz

 

Haha, same shit here... Same shit everywhere... oh well, at least they have a great guitar company.
