The Word B

on a friday, the 19th of december 2003- it it was at a small sound stage in North Hollywood, on Lankershim Blvd. the time would have been approaching midnight, but who could tell these things? we were all in attendance of a rock concert, a private rock concert and c.d. recording party. the band- The Long Lost Lovers. they were playing and making a demo album. i was there with my wife, brother, sister, and closest childhood friends. everyone was tremendously excited. the band was buzzing in anticipation and a little nervous at first, but after 30 seconds into the first song, everything was charging. the Long Lost Lovers played for nearly an hour and a half, but it was the very end when the energy popped and the intimate crowd of 16 sprung from their respective seats and alcoves of the sound studio, and began to boogie. we were dancing, jumping, bouncing, crashing, mashing, screaming, laughing, circling, locked arm in arm, swinging shoulder to shoulder, cheek to cheek, with heavy breath throughout the room. it was a party! a fiesta and celebration of life, music, each other, hannukah, christmas, and an early new years eve bash. we moved around in that hot little room until the sweat ran off our bodies and poured onto the carpet. not one person in the room failed to prespire profusely, nor could control the laughter and joy in their hearts. the band rock and rolled! everyone was in perfect harmony. the music and life at that moment was perfect and exactly the way it was meant to be.
i am thankful to have been present and part of that experience. it was one of those most perfect moments of life where everything is in perfect harmony.
WHERE'S MY ALI G?
