Track 15 of 39 in the ongoing series posting each song on the 2 cassette mixed tape from college in the 90's ... brings back Aerosmith (or, as we referred to them back then, albeit slightly sanitized in this blog post for standards and practices ... Aero-f'n-smith).
Interestingly enough for our modern times, any song that includes "There's something wrong with the world today ... the light bulb's getting dim" somehow ends up timeless. Which either is a good thing in that my generation has clearly perfected livin' on the edge for two decades now OR that we're doomed and going to fall off at any moment.
[PS ... mixmaster Jon M included the line "never forget the trip to Dickinson", which I've done ... but in all honesty, I have a sneaking suspicion it's because I wasn't one of the ones *on* the trip ... and that his exhortation was to the others for whom this mixed tape was made.]
[PPS ... Hey Steven and the boys: I live in Florida now, so be sure to plan that into whatever tour schedule you come up with next. I miss you, Aero-f'n-smith.]
