Everything In Its Right Place

It started with Just.





...

As a sophomore in high school, I had spent the entire previous year listening to nothing but Pink Floyd. That's not actually as bad as it sounds, there's twenty-odd albums to count if you include the solo ones. There was always one more left to discover. I had found something I enjoyed and ... enjoyed the hell out of it.

By the time that video hit though, I was ready for a new sound.

Besides, I was out of Pink Floyd.


...

In roughly the same time period as Radiohead released The Bends, Nine Inch Nails dropped The Downward Spiral, and Garbage made their debut. I sank into all three with hungry ears.


...

When they came round on tour my car broke down on the way to the Electric Factory, and I missed the show. I had no better luck in the course of the following decade, always in the wrong place, finding out too late, tickets sold out, or plain bad timing.


Until Friday.
