Bon Jovi.
Remember how they showed how being a rock star was totally like being a cowboy? Their microphones were really "guns" and their tour bus was a "steel horse." People that saw Bon Jovi knew to be careful. Because their guitars were kind of rifles if you pretended hard enough. Also, they might rock your face.
Bon Jovi, I know how high you have to be to start believing things like that. I once told everyone my couch was a magic boat and the carpet was lava. But I have no idea how high you have to get before you start singing songs about it. I never recorded a song about me rocking faces on my magic couch boat and how much of a lava pirate it made me.
It was a nice try, Jon Bon, but nobody really thought you were a cowboy. And we sort of figured out how the only time rockers and cowboys have anything in common is when you change some of the words in our language to mean two totally different things. You might as well have been singing about how you guys were firemen. Like your monitor speakers were firehoses and no wait! You should have written a song about how you were Chewbacca! And like your bus is a big spaceship and the "loaded" guitar on your back is actually a backpack full of C3PO parts. An-and your microphone is a big chunk of meat attached to an Ewok net! Now that I think about it, being a rock star is exactly like being Chewbacca.

But he sang fine shanties all morning long. I stayed in bed all day :)

I can't say as I recall Newtie ever speaking to me in dreamland.. though I have thought about him in full puss-in-boots regalia.

How handy that Shrek2 will be featuring the same in an orange cat!

Good to see you back in the mix! I hope you and the "other Scott" had a good day!

Date: 2000-09-17 10:57 am (UTC)I used to firmly believe that a Mulberry tree in my front yard was a parade float. I liked climbing it and practicing my Queen Elizabeth wave. Finally, I get to lead a parade...a gay/lesbian
parade, though I'm neither. However, I have that
wave so very down.
