You know, almost five years ago I arrived in the United States as a pretty quirky Canadian. Convinced that I had betrayed my country for a seething mass of gun-totin hicks, I began my little journey on the path of world hating.
Unfortunately for me, my little excursion into the mindless wastes of rebellion were to be defty deflected towards a higher enlightenment. Why? Because I chose the wrong punk band to become obsessed with.
I don't know how many college guys you get who come on to these forums and kiss ass, but this I will tell you: My perspective on life has no doubt changed dramatically, and my sense for music has developed into something completely different, but no matter how much I grow, I come back to the music of the Offspring and think this is the good shit.
Rarely in life do you encounter someone who has such perspective. Rarely in life do you encounter someone with such timeless insight expressed so subtly through art. And that's why you guys will rock on forever, because that perspective and spirit is so clear in your music (and in your actions as well).
Real life heroes, I'll play a song in your name.
...and now to get back to work :cool:
