unplugged

abbey road studios

circa 1972

where only the rockiest of rockstars

an baddest of badasses play

...meet sally

and sam...

...charlie

and skipper...

bringing songs to life

and life to songs

intertwined with grins & air guitars...

spirits, contemplation & yo yo's...

...and a friendly game of "pin the tail on Slovakia", of course.

. . . . . . . . .

i'll never be too old for a game of pretend.

pretend & wonder. dreams & delight.

life would be bland without them. all of them.

.

maybe we were in a modest row house

in the heart of louisville, ky

just five days ago.

.

and maybe that's my favorite brother

and his brilliant roommate, evan.

maybe those glasses don't really make me invisible

and that girl.

yep, sally...she's just a best friend.

.

but that night will forever be referred to as "abbey road"

and i might address josh as "sam" at the next family function

and only he and i will chuckle.

.

and if i'm lucky,

they'll play a good excerpt of our 5 hour recording

at my funeral.

it'd be a helluva tribute,

that's for sure.

.

but the four of us.

we were rockstars

on that friday night.

lovin' life

unplugged.
