Rock is definately what I dig.

A way of life? Depends on what you mean. Do I go out touring, playing to sold-out venues (or even tiny clubs!)? No. But I sure as hell wish I did!!

But rock n roll definately plays a vital role in who I am. It's what makes me well...me! I go out with my girlfriends, and I realize just how much I'm NOT like them! (they have crappy taste!) lol Music gets me off, u know? I hear Aerosmith or Zeppelin or GNR and I just get this feeling...a high...that nothing else does for me. Certain songs just get me. (example: I hear "Everlong" by the Foo Fighters, and I feel like I can do absolutely anything!)
Most of my friends go for the cowboy types...I go for the guy with the guitar jamming on stage!
Everyone else I know goes cruising listening 50 Cent. Meanwhile, I'm looking through my collection for some ACDC.
We all go out shopping, I spend more money in the record stores than in the clothing stores.

I'm not one of those people though that take it way too seriously; that really do think that rock n roll can save the world. But maybe, it just makes the world more tolerable for us!!
