honestly
i miss the philadelphia scene... the way it was. seeing procession came opposite tonight made me realize how much i miss going to shows where boys prevailed and there was no drama, just unity. everyone at the show sharing two common interest: seeing the band and enjoying themselves. no "scene points." granted, i've grown since i've been involved, but i've been involved since i was 12 and almost ten years makes a difference. there was no fashion show tonight, no dirty looks... just love.

check yourself. are you really interested in the music, or are you interested because of what's popular right now? if you're involved and interested, don't act like you're "too cool." these acts feed off the crowd that's there to see them and if you're acting like you're too cool... just go away. you're a downer and not worth the sweat, blood and tears that these bands give every day to make it.
