come with me back in time...all the way back to the year 1997...the Green Bay Packers were Super Bowl Champions, The Baltimore Orioles finished 1st in the AL East, the very first season of South Park aired, i saw Event Horizon in the movie theater, i just graduated from high school and the world was mine to conquer, rule, and wreck...it was without a doubt one of the best years of my life...and a big part of the reason for that was because my punk rock band recorded an album, played a ton of shows, partied our asses off, and had a really great time at it...i gotta admit sometimes i miss those glory days of yesteryear but thanx to the miracle of cassette tapes and vinyl records, i have a few mementos to help me remember all the good times...this is a song by my old hardcore punk band, Blag 13...it was recorded in '97 to be part of some punk rock compilation that never got released, so this track has just sat on the shelf for quite a few years without anyone really ever getting a chance to hear it, outside of the band and our fans and friends that came to the shows....i dig this track, its one of my favorite Blag 13 songs because of how we trade off on vocals...Green Mike's got the first verse, Dik 13 on the second, yours truly, Brad Cancer, on the third, and then back to Dik again...it has a catchy shoutalong chorus that i like and i thought the whole premise was kinda clever....i didn't find out til much later that another hardcore band by the name of Belching Penguins, beat me to the punch and released an album way back in 1986 called 'Draft Beer...Not Me'...hell, what the fuck did i know?, i was 18 and full of angst and while i might have had a broad knowledge of the punk rock and hardcore music scene at that time, you couldn't expect me to know every band and album title ever!....i guess i can just chalk it up to great minds thinking alike, i was just 11 years too slow...anyway, go ahead and toss a couple back, check out this hardcore punk anthem, and start a circle pit in your living room!
