let me be 16 for a moment.

today something sad happened.

it's going to sound like i'm joking.

but i'm actually sad about this.

a girl i know tagged a picture of me on facebook. the e-mail said the picture was in an album called "supertones 2010."

i would like to refer you to

this post

and scroll down, and read the last bit of text about the last video.

so i went to look at the picture, and sure enough. there were my supertones. on stage. i thought...maybe she just found some old pictures.

but why, why, was the album called "supertones 2010."

terror struck.

i googled.

and discovered.

they had a reunion tour this summer.

the orange county supertones

MY ORANGE COUNTY SUPERTONES

were out there, playing music, without my knowledge.

i don't think you understand. i can't make you understand.

most of the tour was in california. i would have ABSOLUTELY saved money, and gone. by myself. to california. to see the supertones in california...i can't let my mind go there. it has endured enough for one day.

i should have been there, screaming at the top of my lungs, dancing in a way that is only acceptable in a mosh pit, and letting them know...

i. still. love. you.

your music isn't sitting on my shelf, covered in dust. well actually it is, but that's only because i uploaded the songs onto itunes! i brought you with me into the the 21st century. just because you stopped making music, doesn't mean i forgot about you. i could never.

uuuuuggghhhhhh.

Allison, Did you know the Morginskys while they were at City Church? They are some of our dearest friends. He is the lead singer of the Supertones. They are in St Louis now (in seminary)...but they were a part of the beginning of CCEN.....what a small world! I'm sure there will be other chances to see them again :) .....
