I saw the Von Bondies video! And again, i won the race cuz i've heard their song "C'mon C'mon" like, half a month agao! Who, go me. I don't want mtv to play them out though! They're too fun to get ruined. I wanna go to Lollapalooza this summer.
Why is it that when I FINALLY find a great band to listen to (Rooney) ...... then all of a sudden, this morning i'm on the couch in my pajamas eating my breakfast, watching mtv, and all of a sudden, "I'm Shakin'" comes on? Am i having a competition with Mtv to see who can find the better band faster? What's sad is that they play out a lot of great music, and you know how that goes. I love Yellowcard, but seeing "Ocean Avenue" every half hour after a show is over just kills it.
I go through phases on a daily basis, sometimes weekly, or even monthly. Sometimes, it's the way i see the world, and the vibes that i feel. I've been feeling unexplainably great vibes lately. Maybe it's because i am so positive about things and don't give a flying fuck about stupid people. I don't know if it's just me, or others have noticed this too, but i've noticed a 70's and 80's revival going on lately. Is it in the whole world, or certain parts of the world, or is it just on tv, music, media and entertainment? Whatever it is, I embrace it, because it's feel good and i feel comfortable in it. This revival has been happening for around 2 years. Guys grow out their hair, more people skateboard and listen to 70's 80's songs and wear certain clothes that were similar to the styles back then.....And then they get revived. This creates new bands that sound old school, and I love them ALL!!!!! Some include: Rooney, the Von Bondies, the White Stripes or the Strokes. While some come back like Weezer (from the early 90's.), The Ramones from the 70's, or Rancid who's been around for who knows how long.
I've been wearing my hair to school wearing it down naturally. My curls are beautiful. I don't know about your school, but at mine, the hair trend is all about blonde highlights, with straight hair. I don't follow preppie trends. I like to bring my best qualities out of myself and stay unique that way. So what's with several girls starting to wear their hair the same way I do?! Am I starting a new trend? Are we on the verge of ending the old and beginning the new revival? It's all new school, yet old school in a way. But you know what? This is me, this is my phase and I love it.
