about
Was watching Russel Brand once and he made this comment about the Hollywood celebrity scene...
"The answer isn't trying to be included, the answer is to address the fear of missing out."
It struck me as a truth. There are many things I'd imagined I'd do in this life that I'll likely not do. Addressing the fear of missing out on those things is a big part of getting older and maybe wiser.
lyrics
I wanna dance at Burning Man
Wearing nothing but my boots
I wanna play this Martin guitar
On a stage at Bonnaroo
Make me the keynote speaker
At SXSW
Introducing Papa Manje
And I'll say, Who the hell are you?
Hey, where are they keeping all the fun these days?
Hey, remember when we played Twist and Shout
Hey, the answer isn't trying to be included
No, the answers to address the fear of missing out
I wanna ride the Super Pipe
In the X Games when I'm 52
I'd like to bring down the porno business
With my love for you
I want the Nobel Peace Prize
For hanging on so long
I'd like to be forgiven
For all the shit that I've done wrong
Hey, where are they keeping all the fun these days?
Hey, remember when we played Twist and Shout
Hey, the answer isn't trying to be included
No, the answers to address the fear of missing out
So what is it I want to be?
What is it I want to believe?
What is it I want to call mine?
Hey, where are they keeping all the fun these days?
Hey, remember when we played Twist and Shout
Hey, the answer isn't trying to be included
No, the answers to address the fear of missing out

I did this in one take live in my home office after work one day. My favorite AEA ribbon mic and plugged straight into my 1943 War-time Martin. I took a few passes and I think it was the last one that stood up and said...listen to me! So I listened. I like it.
