This video PISSES ME OFF.
As none of you who read my blog and know me now will recall, in 2003, I was a complete fangirl for a band called A Static Lullaby. It all resulted from my obsession with their singer, Joe Brown (whom I still, to this day, think is one of the hottest guys. Ever.)
I saw them three times that year:
- May 1: I snuck down to Richmond on a Greyhound bus down to visit some friends. We went to see Brand New, and ASL were the opening band.. this is where the obsession began. I don't remember specific details of this concert, but I know I got my picture taken with ASL's drummer.. and I listened to the CD "...And Don't Forget to Breathe" on repeat the entire bus ride home..
- June 30: Sofia & Jason wanted to go see Darkest Hour.. ASL were opening so I tagged along (or drove us to the Metro..) I don't remember anything else but I'm sure it was awesome.
- August 13: I convinced Robin to go with me (drive me, since my grandparents had that rule where I wasn't allowed to drive anywhere except work and college) to a show in Baltimore.. at the super ghetto Ottobar. We get there two hours early because I am crazy and it's raining so we're sitting in the car.. in the parking lot behind the Ottobar. Some guy comes up and ROBS us at gunpoint. How traumatizing. and then we almost can't get in to the concert because we don't have money to pay the COVER CHARGE (since neither of us were 21 at that point.) DUDE. Joe Brown makes up for it though by grabbing my head and holding it for 30+ seconds and completely eye sexing me the whole time they were playing (I was front row center up against the stage).. then they were done playing and he walked past me and .....rubbed? carressed? my lower back. Sorry, I was "in love" with him. so it was the best worst night ever.
I don't know what the CRAP he is doing in this video wearing that hideous white vest and making out with all these skanky chicks. All I know is that I might have just gone into a jealous rage over it.
Please don't judge me. I'm having a moment. (I mean it.. I was ridiculous over this band that summer. and for I don't know how long after. and now it's all coming back to me, good grief, this is not cool =/ and now I am watching old videos of them on YouTube and freaking out.) haha. wow. I can't believe I am posting about this. but they were so important to me that year... I loved them so much. and now it's 5 years later and I can't stand this new video.. I'm not even sure why I am so mad about it or if mad is even the word I should be using to describe the way it makes me feel. Like I said.... I don't know the point I'm trying to make. I guess I just wanted to try and get my thoughts about it out, and since Jordy is too busy "partying it up" to talk music with me, I'm writing a blog. now I need to go find that CD and listen to it all night and think about 2003 and have inappropriate dreams about Joe Brown. I could keep going on and on about this band but I am having trouble focusing and not being redundant. I've come back to edit this and add more at least five times. I should probably just delete it before I wind up embarrassing myself. Oh well, too late. I'm done now, hopefully.
