The NFL has narrowed down the list of potential performers for the 2015 Super Bowl to three candidates: Rihanna, Katy Perry, and Coldplay, these people said. While notifying the artists' camps of their candidacy, league representatives also asked at least some of the acts if they would be willing to contribute a portion of their post-Super Bowl tour income to the league, or if they would make some other type of financial contribution, in exchange for the halftime gig.

See. My original thought process was to remind myself that I spend a lot of time walking around outside without shoes and socks on anyway, but my feet are not nearly as callused as I anticipated. So. You're 100% right about that.
Not my smartest, but definitely not my silliest.
Try barefoot on the beach next time. Just be cognizant of jelly fish and the random beer bottle.
I feel like my idea of hell would include a never ending aisle of mall kiosks that I keep having to avoid making eye contact with while they try to get me to stop.

I'm pretty sure hell involves an eternity of sitting in a dentist chair with intermittent points when the dentist comes in, drills a little bit, and then tells you he will be back in a few minutes to do some more.

Next time he does that, grab him by the balls and tell him he's staying until it's done.
I would love to work for Superfly. Really, it's a minor dream in the sense that it might actually be possible. But, I'm not in college anymore. Obviously I would want a paying job, but I hate that I can't get my foot in the door this way because I didn't know about their internships while I was in college.

Interesting article in Slate about why people are so passionate about the music they loved as teenagers. As a brief oversimplification, it has to do with the hormones coursing through our bodies making everything from that time seem more emotionally charged and important.
The article should be required reading before people are allowed to post in the Which Stage or Music Lounge threads.
Strangely, the article doesn't mention how the Led Zeppelin that I listened to as a teenager is objectively superior to what teenagers of other eras formed their irrational attachments to.

Interesting read, but there are definitely a few holes in this article. My teenage taste in music was about 70% horrible. Instead of fond memories flooding back I am more often wondering what the fuck I was thinking.

Haha, same here. There are some doozies.
Same here. But I will still defend N'Sync's music to any of the haters.

There's some band called Billy Pilgrim playing a biker bar about 15 minutes from here.
Come and check us out! I'm the bass player with the Harley. I've changed a lot since you last saw me, but come up and give me a big hug. Don't be shy. If I pretend at first that I don't know who you are, I'm just goofin' around.

Perhaps you were a late bloomer.
It's an interesting article for sure but I tend to lean towards what ellabelle said.
I was a VERY different person between the ages of 12 & 22 than I am now. In fact super huge changes in my perception and reaction to the world around me occurred during that time span in my life. And continued to evolve afterwards into the music fan I am today.
When I was 12 I was a nihilist. By the time I was 22 I was a giant (albeit very naive) hippie. When I was 12 there was no other music except for Metal. I firmly believed that the only reason anyone would listen to anything other than the heaviest of Heavy Metal was because they were pussys or just didn't understand or really care about music. But mostly just pussys afraid to face the hopeless black of nothing that surrounds us and reconcile within themselves the meaninglessness of our condition. I took bands like W.A.S.P or Venom or The Accused very VERY seriously during my teens! NObody understoods me
Now. Well, now I still will throw on In League With Satan from time to time and thoroughly enjoy it but it's more ironic. I'm laughing at myself as I crank up the volume. Those songs that at one point in my life had been anthems that I strongly identified with are hilarious to me.
Around the age of 15/16 I started "eating corn" and a radical shift in my musical taste took place. I started listening to my parents 1960's Carpenters'esque psychedelic records and New Age music and I bought some Tarot cards and crystals and drank herbal tea, wore bell-bottoms, paisley vests, square rose colored glasses & carried a pocket watch & shit like that. And I took it all very VERY seriously!
And just like with the previous METAL period I occasionally throw on a song I know now is pretty terrible but still thoroughly enjoy it. For instance when I was 17 I thought that Pink Floyd's Flaming from Pipers at the Gates of Dawn was perhaps the best song ever written. It's fucking awful! Sorry Sid.
I guess the point I'm getting at is that I somewhat disagree with the author of that article. While I still have an emotional connection to those songs I once held sacred that emotion has changed over time.
