Meatloaf

Meatloaf. Need I say more.

There are a number of musical boxes in xtracolds existence that needed to be ticked. Last year I stood within spitting distance of Slash playing the Sweet child o mine solo, and the godfather as he did in those use your illusion videos of my youth. Tonight I was less than 20m from the man singing the song that he owns..bat out of hell.

Amazing. Brilliant. Unforgettable.

Those moments stay with you forever and put the other boring realities of life into perspective. You see life is not about the daily grind. Its not about working to make money to survive. It is about feeding your brain with experiences that stay with you forever, at the forefront of your mind. Next week it won't be a chain of meetings at work that I value or get remotely excited about. It will be those memories of meatloaf tonight, tied to the lunchtime trips home in the car with my mum or dad as a kid, playing on the stereo...down at the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun....like a bat out of hell!
