I just want you to know....

Post by BroSlinger »

Before I became the Brolsinger,I had been running from what i truly was. After years of futile climbing toward outcast hipsterdom, it turns out I was happier slipping into Brodom. My life all started to make sense when I watched Jersey Shore and Fast and the Furious. I have Shore blood, FWIW. Half Atlantic City to be exact.

This has happened at least a few times in my life.
Wanted to be a fruity artster. Lived happily as a jock.
Wanted to be a loner musician college student. Thrived as a frat guy in the business school.
Wanted to be Morrissey. Played hair metal for 5 years.
Tried to be Morrissey again, became a chach that played hair metal.

I'm at another turning point. I was listening to dark weird shit that made me think of psychedelic drugs. It didn't make me happy.

Fast forward to yesterday.....As a joke, I bought AWOLNation - "Run". I would joke about "redbull" music, like that commercial "All of these things make me who I am."

Well, all of these things make me who I am. This album is fucking awesome. It's a mix of lofi, hifi, dubsteppy shit, toes dipped into Americana, etc. There is space where it needs to be. I felt like a million bucks cruising around jamming to this.

I'm going to start drinking more redbull. Probably get a dirt bike. Probably start vaping. Definitely getting some Vans for the warped tour. I was actually planning on getting a rice burner.

I had my midlife crisis early in 2010, bought a camaro, hung out with druggies at the strip club, bought a tele(!), listened to shinedown and watched Battlestar Galactica. Have fun, but don't take it too seriously and listen to what ever makes you happy.

EDM is your future Gene. Accept it. Let's exchange loops and drops, mix in a little acoustic rock element, and take GAB righteously into the 21st century.

10/10

funny the caricatures we try to model and how hard it is to vary from ideas we get so invested in over time.

Good for you breaking out.

Don't forget a lifted F150 with flags out the bed and several Monster Energy decals, Bro. :rofl:

Honestly, I can totally identify with this feeling. I've always been a shorts/T shirt or jeans/T shirt guy, but these days I feel equally comfortable wearing a suit n tie or looking like a golf pro at the local muni. :idk:

"Cougar Hunter" is still the most perfectest name for a hair metal cover project ever conceived.
