Livin the Dream





When we were young, we had a dream that we'd grow old skating together, riding down grass hills side by side as brothers... At Bolts of Thunder, Matt and Brian Hart are keeping this dream alive. I warned you a couple posts ago, but you didn't believe me. I told you that discovery of old school boards would lead to a skating revolution. Kind of like when the guy finds the guitar on the Rush album "2112". For those of you who don't know this album, the priests of the temple of syrinx are slappin everyone down and controlling what they listen to. The kid finds an ancient guitar, starts to play it, becomes a rock star, forms the group "the Spiders from Mars", goes blind and plays pinball, and sings songs about strawberry fields... But we all know that strawberries grow in our personal gardens, not in fields. This guy was obviously on his dope. Anyway, finding and playing this guitar led to a revolution. That's what our old school boards have done. Matt and Brian are riding in perfect harmony down the hill, representing the revolution at hand... Actually, I shouldn't be telling you about the revolution, the gov might cut our cell phones and electricity if things get out of hand. So just enjoy the pictures for now... And that first picture, that's the Lonely Shepherd himself and a sweeter version of "The Edge" from U2... I wrote this comment not meaning anything by it, but I'm wondering now if there could be any more offensive comment than likening one unto "The Edge". For the record, we are not fans of him, his work, or his desire to be known as the cutting part of a knife, or a cliff, or anything with an edge. This post is really a call for help. Or rather, asking all those who like "The Edge" to call for help. There is still more to live for, you shouldn't give up on life so easily. Why don't you just like Bolts of Thunder instead? We'll get you on the right path again...

  1. I found the perfect remedy to fans of "The Edge." Just watch the documentary, It Might Get Loud... that'll do it.
