Almost Famous
June 11th, 2005Well it’s just the biggest thing since sliced bread, and I can’t believe I haven’t mentioned it before, but welp, big news for Rockstar Brother. His most excellent band, Nothingless, is heading out on Warped Tour this summer!!!
Yes, you read that right. My very own Rockstar Brother is going on the Warped Tour. Yes, the legendary Warped Tour - Like the very same Warped Tour that will be headlined by rock’s favorite geez, Billy - effing - Idol!
What a nice day for a white wedding. And for reading the blog of a gurl whose bro bro is somewhat of a celeb. Look he?s even featured in the Anchorage Daily News! Now if that aint the bees knees, I don’t know what is.
(Incidentally, the other band mentioned in the article, Jupiter Sunrise -I’ve met them too. I saw their show one Friday night when my the girls and I, on a whim, decided to pop into the Worst, Skeezy, Townie Bar in Blacksburg, Virginia. Maybe it was 2002? Impressed? Yeah, I may be a little bit crunchy, but I’m also a little bit rock n’ roll….)
Yes Rockstar Brother, you’ve come a long way baby. I remember when you were a 60lb weakling with a side part and penchant for Sears polyester suits. Shy by nature, you used to be such a sweet, quiet little boy-
But then you joined a band.
And now you spend your time doing rock squats, sleeping until the crack of noon, going “it’s gig time what kind of shirt do I wanna wear.” Oh, and sometimes you do things like this to your band mates for fun:

I’m so proud - that Tommy’s the one giving the wedgie and not receiving it. I guess all those wedgie wars, waged against each other when we were children, have really paid off. Not only does Rock Star brother know how to write a kick a$$ anthem, but he also has the skills needed to yank some tightey whiteys off the most rockin’ of drummers.
And to that I say - Cheers Rockstar Brother!
