Not from memory and fucking sick
I've been a big Genesis fan ever since the release of their 1980 album, Duke. Before that, I really didn't understand any of their work. Too artsy, too intellectual. It was on Duke where Phil Collins' presence became more apparent. I think Invisible Touch was the group's undisputed masterpiece. It's an epic meditation on intangibility. At the same time, it deepens and enriches the meaning of the preceding three albums. Christy, take off your robe. Listen to the brilliant ensemble playing of Banks, Collins and Rutherford. You can practically hear every nuance of every instrument. Sabrina, remove your dress. In terms of lyrical craftsmanship, the sheer songwriting, this album hits a new peak of professionalism. Sabrina, why don't you, uh, dance a little. Take the lyrics to Land of Confusion. In this song, Phil Collins addresses the problems of abusive political authority. In Too Deep is the most moving pop song of the 1980s, about monogamy and commitment. The song is extremely uplifting. Their lyrics are as positive and affirmative as anything I've heard in rock. Christy, get down on your knees so Sabrina can see your asshole. Phil Collins' solo career seems to be more commercial and therefore more satisfying, in a narrower way. Especially songs like In the Air Tonight and Against All Odds. Sabrina, don't just stare at it, eat it. But I also think Phil Collins works best within the confines of the group, than as a solo artist, and I stress the word artist. This is Sussudio, a great, great song, a personal favorite.

The show(incubus/deftones) is tomorrow at the Shoreline and of course I can't make it. I'm so bumbed. I haven't gone to a show in ages. My whole life is growing weed. It's so very old. Fucking bullshit!
I think I want to move back to the bay area. I mean fuck! Now all I can do is grow indoor here anyways. It's hard to drive 3-3.5 hrs to a concert. FUCK FUCK FUCK

I hear ya. That fucking sucks, man. I would love a spot in the bay, and even thought about it before moving out here, but it's getting ridiculously expensive to exist in a place like that anymore. Cost of living is insane. The rent's risen something on average like 44% in the last five years. People are willing to pay whatever, even in shitholes like Hayward and Richmond. I just read something the other day about a dude in Palo Alto that sold his 992 sq.ft. that he bought for 35k in 1970 for like 3mil. 992 sq ft, Jaysus fuck.
Plasmatics. Right on. Wendy O was a fucking psycho. Doomdadoomdoomdoom.

I would never be able to buy back where I'm from. Ben Lomand, then Almaden. I'm just hella moody in the morning my brotha. I think I need to stop masturbating first thing
lolSoo fucking expensive in the Bay area. But I actually do like it up here where I'm at, even though no mo out doh.
I really do miss santa cruz area though. No AC needed for indoor. Same with Monterey.
Did you go hiking Big Sur yet?
Tired of where you're from, and then tired of where you're at. Lol. Still I was really looking forward to that show
