I had a rather mortifying afternoon.
Since some of the characters in this episode
May be minors,
No names will be mentioned..
Oi..NOTHING scandalous la!
Well..but it was terrible for me..
Was at my friend's place this afternoon coz I was bored as hell & tired of the computer..
besides what I realllllly wanted was someone whom I could talk to about music & stuff..
Bad luck..bad timing his sister's ENTIRE gaggle of schoolmates decided to drop in too..
Sigh.
I'm really not anti-social but I'm not exactly Mother Goose you see..
I wasn't willing to make small talk..not when I was all pumped up for some rock talk..
I thought they too would have some nonsense on their agenda & hence leave us in peace but
NOOOOOOO..they had to occupy the same space we had,they had to butt in every now and then..or talk at the top of their IRRITATING whiny voices about total shit..ARRGHHH..
Ok nevermind.
All that I could still endure..
As my friend was tuning the guitar,this particularly cute looking friend of the sis's started boasting about how she was ''SOOOO'' totally into rock & started that emo shit about no one understanding her and all she wants is this and that and blah blah..
The whole gang nod their heads and start talking and one of the twerps suggested that they should just simply "rock out" and be bad gals n do what they wanna do...*yawn*
My friend and I had already started chilling to some BSSM and I guess these gals were bored..So they started dancing to the songs we were listening to.
Irritating.
Then one of these gals..turns on MTV or something..
yeah bloody rude right..
I was seriously thinking of leaving & that's when this Black Eyed Peas song comes on MTV..and all the twerps squeal & say ohhh this is hardcore rock!!I so wanna headbang.
I ask you..
WTF?
Who the hell HEADBANGS to SHUT UP by BEP?
why the hell is that even considered as rock in the first place?
Arrrghhhh..
If that is HARDCORE..i really don't wanna know what mushy shit they listen to when they are in a romantic mood!!!
The scene that greeted our eyes was pathetic..
This gals..sashaying and flipping their neat,rebonded,with little flips as they pranced..
THEY CALL THIS HEADBANG??
I felt like banging all their heads together!!
My friend and I soon had our revenge though..
When "Give It Away" started playing..
We went mad.
Literally.
It was the ''EXTENDED" concert version sumore..
just imagine!!
We were kicking back chairs
& air-guitaring..and from the beginning right up to the freaking sweeeeeeet outro..we just could not be still!!
It had been a long time since I had this kinda fun with friends..of course you'd NEVER catch me rocking out in public..but it felt so good..and you know what felt better...
the looks on those faces!!!
Priceless I tell u!!
I saw a mixture of fear & wonder
Hahahahahaahahaha..
I wanted to laugh but I was too out of breath..
I guess they were shocked to see the very silent,
lady like me going into some sort of trance..
After that they talked in hushed whispers..
Me?
I just felt good.
Hell yeah.
After an hour or so left for home..
and now..right now..
I'm feeling the after effects of the impromptu performance..
My neck..freaking hurts..my shoulders are kinda tingly and the top half of my back..
arrgh..worse still I can't feel my head..as in..erm..hahaha I dunno I just feel like I'm headless or something..
Serves me right..I guess..
Should have practised some control..
I don't even wanna think about how my neck & back is gonna ache tomorrow..
Hehe..but if I had a chance..I'd do it all over again...
I bet it will be a long time before those lambs even think about "Rocking out"
Damn.
So sad to see the state of rock the newer bands are coming up with..
No passion,just entertainment..a whole lot of pretty faces..snappy lyrics..
I guess I'm just lucky to know at least some of the remaining true rock bands..
and of course,thank God for my RHCP & Frusciante..hehehe..
I aint no 70s kid but I can feel the sheer energy of those years just by their music!!
I will never say rock is dead..
but I have to admit..
Rock is indeed going stale..
This is me,Patricia
