Greetings music fans.
Your Uncle Jon is feeling reminiscent today. Cleaned out my desk not too long ago and found an old roll of film. I finally brought it in to be processed. The thing was like 20 years old. I had no idea what it was and I was pretty excited to find out. Picked it up today. The guy behind the counter seemed more bummed out than me when he said, “preety old, my man.” The film couldn’t be developed, and he couldn’t print any pictures. He gave me the negatives though. No charge. Even out in the sunlight I could make out very little of the shapes and figures blurred upon the negatives. A window. A closet. A black women with blonde hair. Oh wait. I guess that was just a white brunette.
So yeah, twenty-four moments of my life that I thought were worth documenting are now gone forever. So I am gonna bust out some Floyd and try to find the strenth not to cry into my scotch(es).
Develop your film while it’s fresh, and shine on you crazy diamonds.
