Imagine...
a sweat stained shitty bar out in the sticks...
no doors blocking the toilet...broken glass and vomit on the floor...
waitresses that flirt...you'll get nowhere, young man...
a buzz of anticipation in the air...
you can feel the energy coursing through adolescent veins...
so much fucking energy!!!!!
you're sick of your life
and your place in it...
the things you're supposed to do and be
don't feel right...
you wait for that first jolt of electricity
that will bundle up your energy
and give you sweet fucking relief...
...and then you drink 22 beers until you just get silly...
but that first jolt of electricity, man,
can you feel it!!!
that's a feeling worth recapturing
every now and then...
energy, anticipation...sweet release!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Listening to Sonic's Rendezvous Band: Sweet Nothing (1998) captures that feeling of energy and release...from a live show April 4, 1978 in their hometown of Ann Arbor, Michigan..."Dangerous" starts out with an energy blast...you're in a bar and the electricity blasting through speakers...head embedded with a wall of electric noise...setting the soul free from the bullshit of life a core of purity in a dirty rock'n'roll kind of way....like the best live albums, I wish I was there half out of my mind head in speakers blowing out brain cells like a heavy axe chop chop chop chopping my brains out and loving that moment in time a snapshot a camera lens burning into your head..."Getting There Is Half the Fun" is like the best heavy metal, runs galloping through everything put in front of it..."Heart of Stone" is a great cover, heavy and loud..."Sweet Nothing" is an instant classic and the sweat is pouring down your body stinking and your private world seems not so bad..."City Slang" rocks you one final time until your soul is screaming in a frenzy: "yeh, this is it, this is fucking it, can you feel it??? can you fucking feel it????????" and then you pass out with ears buzzing loud and you smile, satisfied, that this is it, this is fucking it!
