A lot of bands write songs loooong before they actually release them. The Smashing Pumpkins had Mayonnaise that was actually written in 1988, but not released until 1993, however, they played it at shows long before 1993...
This song supposed to be about his frat experience at lsu but this song or any song is about what the listener wants it to be about. People said losing a loved one, mental instituions, drugs & people not understanding, even how vietnam vets were treated after the war makes sense with this song.
i had such a fucking great night listening to this song on the lake with someone i just met at a skynnryd concert. traded earings and didint even know i was desparately wanting the one i was with.
This concert actually aired in 1997, after Friction, Baby came out and Travis joined the band. They shared the hour with The Lemonheads and I still have it taped on VHS :)
I remember this concert series. Look how cool this is. Remember when bands could be on TV just dressed like normal people? Now everything is so damn glammed up.
Well I did catch that I was wrong because the release was in '96, but if this is '95 it was late late '95 because I know Tom had long hair back then. This song wasn't released before... or at least it's not on Surprise or the original Deluxe cassette. Anyway... no reason to debate this. I absolutely adore this band. They have been my favorite since they re-released Deluxe.
P.S... I LOVE Kevin's hair... lol. I remember a magazine asking him what hair products he used.
@sxylilrckstar i think you took something the wrong way.....i was commenting on how long its been since these guys came out....i have this album somewhere on cassette.....you're more than free to keep thinking that the world is picking on you.
@curt470 Gee.. I think 11 months ago I said I was wrong on the info and 5 months ago I reminded someone that I said I was wrong and today I will remind you again. This issue was already finished almost a year ago. Sorry you were so late.
And yes BTE usually plays upcoming songs at shows. I remember hearing them play Misunderstood at On The Bricks during the summer and the album wasn't released for another few months. They also would play Simple Song which didn't make it onto the Closer album.
