Hazy days of summer
New Who tattoo. New Who album. New attitude on life and many new and exciting opportunities. Hopefully, this weekend, a new vehicle too!
But, I still miss the lazy days of summer made hazy with pot smoke swirling around (looking around making sure my teens aren't reading this), Led Zeppelin and even more, The Who playing loud, records crackling. Who's Next. Tommy, Quadrophenia. Even Who Are You. Sun burned. Broke. Free, in more ways then I knew at the time. Life seemed like it stood still. How I sometimes wish it did. The thought never even entered my mind if Pete and Roger would or should ever give up playing. Life did move on and we , at times reluctantly, all grew up. For those of us that survived, it only hurts when we think of the ones that we lost. At the time, I guess I seriously believed we'd *all* die before we got old.
...snap back to reality...today's reality. I LOVE the new music I've heard, Mirror Door and even more Mike Post Theme. Technology of today is amazing. The grid.
Pete looks good doesn't he? A real good looking boy. Happy, but not too happy. Cool. Describes myself mostly, happy but not too happy. Roger sounds great too. Techology, for better or worse,
Good times, good times.
