well I was 11 years old. It was nov 17. a sunday. I had MCIS and SD and I'm not sure about the rest at that point. It was my first rock show. I went with my dad and my sister. It completely blew my mind and I knew I wanted to play guitar and write songs after that. Unfortunately the part I remember the most is when my dad made us leave during the encore and I was so mad. I also remember during either Porcelina or Ruby they had this kind of water-rippling/glass ceiling type effect on the stage and maybe on the ceiling (surely not but that's how I remember it) and I was like mesmerized by it, the whole thing was amazing. We had pretty good seats also, not floor seats but like 8th row in the stands, to the left of the stage. honestly that concert changed my life, made me get really, really obsessed over SP, however I don't remember many specific points in the concert. i did not know the second MCIS disc songs very well at that point.
Garbage opened and at one point Shirley Manson said something like 'none of you care about us fuck you' lol. i think that show made my dad really respect the band as well. he was always open to listening to them and going to more concerts etc |

it's weird cuz something traumatic happened to me earlier in that day so i know the exact date this traumatic thing happened, it's very strange. i mean it wasn't something totally devastating but it did affect me and i've talked about it in therapy and just knowing the exact date is odd

Malcolm Young is dead :'(
Weird no one here on Netphoria, that I've seen so far, mentioned it. Does no one here like AC/DC? |

The Homerpalooza ep was what really made me go check out the band, but I remember seeing the Bullet video prior to that and thinking they all just looked really cool.
At age 11 I was listening to Kriss Kross and Michael Jackson's Dangerous. Oh, man. |

History and English. But I was stoned most of the time and followed my own curriculum, especially in grad school. Apparently I was supposed to read some dude's writing about another dude's writing about another dude's writing about stories. instead i read the actual stories.

the notes/chord structure do well embodying a sense of alienation, but the overall feel of the song, production wise, is an opiate blanket. mmm thematically, i'd always assumed it had something to do with the conflict-heavy portions of glass' character arc. perhaps: https://i.imgur.com/CAam47K.jpg https://i.imgur.com/gstZbEN.jpg https://i.imgur.com/oHCYWTG.jpg? |

even the rest of it can be seen as a retrospective look at when abuse was happening, even working through it ("so you can die")

Yeah those are good lyrics. And I've always felt that Billy was abusing uppers during this era.

i was just thinking that since the song occurs within the confines of a specific conceptual context, perhaps it more than likely speaks to that narrative. but, as the internet is wont to say -- why not both? |

In terms of the Glass narrative, I took this one as expressing his grief at June's death, retreating into himself, isolated and withdrawn. But on a personal level it's definitely about abuse - "You were my violence stuck in my life".
