So a few weeks back I went looking for a concert ticket, as The Replacements were touring again and Pittsburgh was going to be one of their stops. Given they are one of my favorite bands growing up and I had never seen them live (they broke up in 1991 before their current reunion tour) and their show in Pittsburgh sold out pretty quickly. Luckily I was able to find tickets through a broker online for only slightly more than face value, I paid $61 for a $50 ticket, which includes the shipping and handling for the ticket. But just when I thought things were going to be cool and everything would be all right in the Matt universe, one of the band members took ill before the Pittsburgh show and they had to cancel. Ticket holders were told to hold onto their tickets they would be valid at a new rescheduled date. Then we get word from the bands Facebook page that the date will not be rescheduled, so who knows when I will get to see them live. Guess I will just be stuck with Youtube......
If it's a temporary lull
Why am I bored right outta my skull?
Man, I'm dressin' sharp an' feelin' dull
Lonely, I guess that's where I'm from
If I was from Canada
Then I'd best be called lonesome
And if it's just a game
Then I'll break down just in case
Oh yeah, we're runnin' in our last race
Well, I laughed half the way to Tokyo
I dreamt I was Surfer Joe
An' what that means, I don't know
A dream too tired to come true
Left a rebel without a clue
And I'm searching for somethin' to do
If it's just a game
Then we'll hold hands just the same
So what, we're bleeding but we ain't cut
And I could purge my soul perhaps
For the imminent collapse
Oh yeah, I'll tell you what we could do
You be me for a while, I'll be you
A dream too tired to come true
Left a rebel without a clue
Won't you tell me what I should do?
And if it's just a lull
Why am I bored right outta my skull?
Oh yeah, keep me from feeling so dull
And if it's just a game
Then we'll break down just in case
Then again, I'll tell you what we could do
You be me for a while
You be me for a while and I'll be you
