Drinking red wine in the Cafe Katoen. Upwardly mobile aloe vera plants in the window. Dark wood, red tabletops. Murky white chandeliers, the lights themselves seated in ornate crinoid stems. Seems to be a student hangout. U of Amsterdam nearby. Cute girls at table by window, and cute waitresses. Back spasms (freakin backpack...).
Yeah it's too bad that people were smoking so much weed at Korsakoff Sunday night. Otherwise I would have asked for Rage, Weezer, Tool, or something a little harder and faster. But the poor heads wouldn't have been able to handle it I'm afraid. Heads think "Get up, stand up" (boop-ee boom boom-boom) "stand up for your right" when it comes to activism, and I think "Why stand on a silent platform? Fight the war, f*&# the norm!" with Tom Morello punishing his guitar in the background. The message is the same, the delivery totally different. For me though Marley is strictly for chilling out, not for getting motivated. Rage, on the other hand, makes me want to high-kick those bastards in the face.
