Out of the Bottle

Out of the bottle  
 
Feel a stirring in my soul  
Rhythm pulse under blood vessels
It’s been there since I was a tot
First 45 was Mother Mary
Along with Taveres
 
Heaven’s missing an angel
Dancing through my teens with  
Who Doors and Aerosmith  
With some Jimi mixed in
 
A new decade approaches and
It’s the 80’s on the stage
Clashed with The Who and Santana
Down at JFK
 
Went from Genesis all the way to Peter Gabriel
Call the Police and watch the Go Go’s
Rush meet Joe Walsh in the Spectrum
Ringing in my ears for days and days  
Felt like a war medal
But now what did you say I can’t hear you
 
U2 with Yugos and Blue Collar Tweakers
In Vet Stadium  
And smaller venues like the Troc and TLA
 
About 36 people saw The Latin Playboys
Everlast told me What it’s like
As I stand next to Train  
Watching Better than Ezra  
 
Third eye blind Soul coughing and Everclear
At the Factory  
Tower of Power and Mr BB King
 
Bod Dylan and Tom Petty’s Circus
To Beck picking up the Garbage
 
Y100 and WDRE summer festival  
Then on Christmas  
How about some Bush Foo Fighters and Oasis
 
Or Neil Young and Pearl Jam
Rocking in the free world
 
Chili Peppers on a winter April
With a cop and 3 goin postal
In the Bryce Jordan Center
 
Or a trip to Atlantic City  
To see up close Eddie and Jeremy
 
Or in Newark where the Devils play
How about a TD in Boston or groovin
In The Garden of the Apple  
 
Sorry if I left you out but I’m old
And I have a lot to think about  
A salute to music my true temple
Oh and I saw KISS at the Spectrum in 76
