home grown (with national product, the silence, and olivia opening) will be playing a show on august 8th.



not exactly a band i was hoping to see, but i'll be there anyway. i've been dying to go to a show, but i'm not a big fan of local shows. i usually go to maybe 3 or 4 local shows per year, so i'm not a scenster by any means. and i have no desire in becoming one really.

but in any case, it shouldn't be too bad, home grown used to be one of my favorite bands when i was in high school.

oh, and why the show is 18 and over? by doing that, they've eliminated 99% of home grown's fans, didn't they?

pablo neruda - clumsy passerby

we are the clumsy passersby
we push past each other with elbows
with feet, with trousers, with suitcases
we get off the train, the jet plane, the ship
we step down in our wrinkled suits and sinister hats
we are all guilty, we are all sinners
we come from dead-end hotels or industrial peace
this might be our last clean shirt
we have misplaced our tie
yet even so, on the edge of panic
pompous, sons of bitches
who move in the highest circles
or quiet types
who don't owe anything to anybody
we are one and the same, the same in time's eyes
or in solitude's: we are the poor devils
who earn a living and a death
working bureautragically or in the usual ways
sitting down or packed together in subway stations
boats, mines, research centers
jails, universities, breweries
(under our clothes the same thirsty skin)
(the hair, the same hair, only in different colors)
