~ Mother Love Bone ~
5 GUYS. DIFFERENT HAIRDO'S.
DIFFERENT HI-TOPS. DIFFERENT RECORDS.
ALL PLAYED DIFFERENT INSTRUMENTS...
MOTHER LOVE BONE.
WE WROTE A BUNCH OF FUNNY, CRAZY SONGS
THAT MADE US STOMP AROUND & SHAKE BUTTOCKS.
WE LAUGHED AND HAD THE TIME OF OUR LIVES.
THE L.A. CONTINGENT (SERIOUS PEOPLE)
TOOK THESE SONGS SERIOUSLY AND BOUGHT US BIG DINNERS
& TOLD US STORIES ABOUT "scarface" & "chicks."
WE LAUGHED AND WENT HOME TO WATCH
"the big picture" & "spinal tap."
WE LAUGHED. THEN, THINGS GOT REALLY SERIOUSLY BUSY.
WE SIGNED OUR AUTOGRAPHS AND BECAME BIG BUSINESS.
WE WROTE MORE SONGS AND DREAMED BIG DREAMS,
THEN...THE LAKERS FAILED TO 3PEAT.
FEELING DEVASTATED, WE PUNISHED OURSELVES FURTHER
BY TOURING WITH THE DOGS D'AMOUR (ENGLISH DRINK ROCK).
WE SPENT THE NEXT YEAR PLANNING & PREPARING
FOR THE "master plan."
PRODUCERS, NEW T-SHIRTS, RIDING OUR BIKES,
PLAYING HOOPS, NEW FRUIT DRINKS, & OCCASIONALLY
DELVING INTO MASTURBATION AND THE OCCULT TO KEEP OUR MINDS OFF
BASEBALL SEASON (OTHERWISE KNOWN AS THE SLOW SEASON).
TERRY DATE CALLED US AND SAID HE TALKED
G. & CURT ASS INTO MAKING "the record." IT WAS TIME.
SAN FRANCISCO WAS 2 BE OUR HOME 2 CREATE "apple."
IT WAS GOOD. EARTHQUAKES. NINTENDO FOOTBALL. THE NINERS.
THE BAY SERIES. WE LAUGHED.
MAKING RECORDS WAS FUN. THEN WE WAITED.
PLANS WERE PLANNED. WE WAITED, AND DREAMED BIG DREAMS.
OUR GOOD FRIEND ANDREW THEN LEFT US 4 OLYMPUS (HEAVEN).
WE CRIED.
"apple" IS ALL THE TIME WE SPENT TOGETHER.
GOOD MEMORIES.
