It’s been awhile since I had a rock-inspired dream. I blame it on the pressures that comes with having this blog to maintain. This dream dryspell has been troublesome for me, though, because I lead a simple life, and without these dreams I have no stories to tell. With no stories to tell, my coworkers and friends have little interest in what I have to say… and no one visits my blog anymore.
But last night I had a baby rock dream that gives me renewed hope in the powers of my imagination! This was the dream…
... just a concert poster. I dreamt that I was walking into the local coffee shop and spotted this poster on the door. I was suddenly overcome with joy.
Why? you ask?
Because for some unknown (and unacceptable) reason, both Andrew Bird and The Shins have bypassed Atlanta on their tours. Neither artist has played here in over a year… maybe longer. As you may recall, I’ve already dreamt about both of these artists. Andrew Bird and I crashed a wedding together, while The Shins tried to show me that they could sing underwater with Clap Your Hands Say Yeah. How many more dreams must I have before these artists play for me?!?!
As for the inclusion of Man Man on the poster, the band came through town with Modest Mouse last Saturday, so that’s probably why I was thinking about it.
Well, here’s hoping for more dreams in the near future. (And I’m keeping May 25th open, just in case this dream comes true).
