Air Guitar Hero

Tonight was a beautiful night here in Chicago. It was warm, dark and drizzly. I decided to go for a walk to get to my 10,000 steps (more on that next week). I went out the back door and headed towards the lake with my ipod.
One of the reasons i like rem so much is that no matter how many times i listen to an album, i hear something new with almost each new listen be it thematic, lyrical or instrumental. Accelerate just came out earlier this month and i've listened to it many times but this was the first headphone, walk-in-the-rain, dark listen.
I felt like i was a 15 year old again walking around in a drizzle listening to his music so intently that the air guitar and air drums just flowed.
I made it to the lake and continued listening, singing aloud and doing my strange combination of air guitar, air drum and stipe dance. Long hair flapping the air and rain. It was wonderful. I shot some vid on my treo and added a track to help readers understand.
I returned from the lake listening to the pumpkins' siamese dream. I felt myself walking around like a 17 year old in college with all sorts of sticky sweet confidence... playing my six string electric in the air.
