No Taiwan Pictures > Instead, Music/Los Angeles Nostalgia

Sorry, no pictures this time, too. And actually, not even anything that has to do with Japan or Taiwan.

I find myself at the tail end of another hour-long (actually short) nostalgia run through music that's had a huge impact on me and which I've started connecting with L.A. in my time away.

Okay, so I just found this for the first time! It's genius!

This song is so awesome, especially live, but I've never heard/seen it, or even imagined it, in this context before! And it fits so perfectly! I love it.

I wouldn't necessarily recommend watching the entire thing of that hannah montana video, but...the best bands always have some kind of connection to pop culture. Why? And as I say that, I realize I know almost nothing about popular music and t.v. But I do love (more and more) to scream my lungs out to some good crashing drums and needly rubber band guitar or maybe some fuzzing scratches of feedback while crashing into/through dozens of hot, sweaty bodies. So, maybe that's enough.

I was gonna write more but I got tired. It's 1am now. I'll just say I am really excited to start making music as soon as I get back to L.A. and I've gone through a lot of musical change.

Bye.
