so i’ve just had an awakening. i now believe it. rock and roll will never die. i’d thought it was something you yelled at the wind in defiance of all the crap in the world. well, it just turns out to be true.

but like most things with fan participation, its the minor leagues that’s the source of truth. there’s this band up in toronto, white cowbell oklahoma, that’s figuring it all out. right in the middle of the show, one of them jumps out of his clothes ‘ceptin for his boots and hat, calls up a couple of gals from the crowd to hold his guitar parallel to the ground, and with great ceremony fixes a shot glass to the end of his pecker. what happens next is next to rock-godliness. the band kicks it and he plays the best version of ‘freebird’ i’ve heard, on slide guitar no less. note to self: learn to play guitar.

Off! Off! Off!
