I remember I was in about 8th grade when Backstreet Boys came out with "Everybody" and they had this crazy video on The Box where they were dancing and doing all sorts of stuff in this house or whatever. Then Nsync came out/exploded on the scene and shut the boy band game down. Well it was kinda taboo for a black dude to listen to Nsync around that time and just because I was a silly goose/class clown, for a gas I bought there cd and bumped it.
Fast forward about 10 years or so...
I'm playing Nsync at the Y and this lifeguard chick who's a 90's baby (that shit doesn't even sound right) is all like...
who is this???
Me: Nsync
*blank stare*
Me: Justin Timberlake's first group with hime Lance Bass, Joey Fatone, and somebody else?
*blank stare* nuh uhh you need to turn this crap off!
It didn't really hit me how much time has passed. I was talking with this counselor about when I was in school and shit and about how we didn't have txting, we had two way pagers, and we didn't have 'real music ringtones' just polyphonic tones that sounded like your favorite song.
But anyways the 4th snuck up on me real quick fast, I didn't even know it was this Saturday for truth...But Jen Bear won some tickets to see 311 and the Wailers, so I'm gonna go see them again and be on the hunt like bald eagles for a good 4th of July Plate, cause isn't that what it's really all about?
