]]> Comment on I Want to Love and Be Loved in Big Cities by John Meyer http://originalmag.com/2011/12/04/i-want-to-love-and-be-loved-in-big-cities/#comment-395 John Meyer Thu, 02 Feb 2012 03:59:04 +0000 http://originalmag.com/?p=1078#comment-395 Wow, this is really interesting. There's clearly a lot personal going on here, and that gets conveyed well. In the end I think this is what makes it a good piece: it feels like it's written for your own sake in coming to terms with this nostalgia, and for that reason the writing becomes so much more real for a reader. It seems therapeutic for you, and I as a reader am interested in experiencing this along with you. Thanks for sharing, John Wow, this is really interesting.

In addition to NxMW, Matt and Dave play the occasional house party as a duo , or, recently, with Tyler to “stay relevant” as Matt puts it. When asked about future concert goals, New Zealand is their dream venue, especially for Matt who would “love to play for my family and all the people back home.” Japan was also listed as a “cool place to play.” [...] [...] North x Midwest will be the first time the band will play as a foursome since December, since Dave Shepherd lives in Philly.

MTV ruined any academic image of college with their spring break specials–yes, we’re crazy, borderline alcoholics who will ultimately do irreparable damage, but that doesn’t matter until, give or take, 14 to 53 years from now." C'mon don't sell your entire generation out like that, don't give them no credit. We did it ourselves, they just mock and profit. “We can’t help the way we act.
