everyday there are small things that make me smile
sometimes i write them down.
sometimes i peel them off of streetposts and keep them in my pockets.
but now i am going t start sharing them with you. here.
because there are things to love today.
today, i love this:
[friend]: i found the video i was talking about!
besides being a sweet video, i think this video is really important unintentionally. i feel like our generation is starting to solidify a niche in the music world, and this video represents it well. it's definitely an imitation of old things (revival-esque), but unique in its own way. perfect example are the plaid shirts and beards with hipster neon shades. passionate music people are forming groups, finding empty spaces, make-shift instruments, playing wherever and whenever. emphasis on acoustic, playing to play, etc etc. which i think is REALLY cool and makes me REALLY excited. it is something i would love to be a part of in some way
[me]: that concert last night felt like that. like our generation. a funny mix of "hippie revival" and gutter punks and john bellucci. you know? NOT the 60s. NOT trying to be them. a little mix of the past and the present. and some milwaukee cigarette smoke in my hair.
there is something exciting happening. in milwaukee. with our generation. maybe its because im twenty one, maybe its becasue my friend is observant, but i feel like we are finding ourselves. and i love that.
