gah.

i can't even express just how badly i want to kick myself in the ass for missing the jack johnson portland and seattle shows. i mean...the seattle show was sold out before i even knew about it, but i could've done the portland show. on my birthday, no less.

so instead, i'll just keep listening to it. and watching the video i have of him. and becoming more and more obsessive compulsive over music in general.

i think i was scarred for life by a few things.

1.) being born too late to catch dmb in the early years.
2.) missing OAR in arizona
3.) missing howie's really early shows
4.) missing jack
5.) catching mayer in the early days(well, early days of the west coast at least)

because of all of these things, i'm pretty much obsessed with seeing everything i can. because these acts are so damned good that you get one chance, and then POOF! they're huge and you're sitting in the back of the balcony.


damn, i amuse myself sometimes. dramatic babbling. can't beat it.

but anyway. yes. jack johnson. good lawd, this man is amazing. i cannot wait to be part of that audience.
