GROUPIE LUVIN'

 I came across some girl on Tumblr, by the way I have one now so check it out here, and I read her short and sweet passage about "Groupies". 

 First things first (I'll eat your brain), I find "groupie culture" for lack of a better term quite interesting.

I don't know much about it to judge but it's still something I'd consider researching (I'm not going to

get into it because well, I suppose I want to save it for another time). What I DO know about is Penny Lane

from The Band Aids and how killer she is...Kate Hudson rules in that movie. 

Secondly, I know how this girl feels. Attending a show/concert/gig or whatever has got to be the most

refreshing, freeing, liberating (or not) feeling ever. You're in a room filled with other people who appreciate 

and love something as passionately as you do. Realizing you're NOT THE ONLY (asshole) PERSON WHO

LISTENS TO THAT BAND. Knowing you're supporting the band someway, somehow. On top of it all, while 

you dance  you're not being judged! Or at least not always - sometimes though, let's be real.

I got this picture somewhere here

Anyway, we dance like freaks because we just

 don't give a fuck, it means THAT much to us.

It's my favorite feeling, I'm also still a virgin, 

but you get the point. If I could find a job that

allowed me "to get paid for doing what makes [us] 

happy" obviously we would take it. In this case, 

yeah you can be an "It Girl" y'know, stand there and 

look pretty, get your picture taken, go to a million 

events for free, then get paid  à la Cory Kennedy but

I'd want more than that...

Like the girl who posted the above,I guess I

just find myself to get really passionate about 

a band. When I appreciate someone's music, I really 

really really appreciate it. I'm not saying I'm some

crazy fucking nutty-loon that wants to be around the 

band all the time and breathe their air and prove to 

everyone how much I like the band, I can't even take 

those foolish people who wear Passion Pit getup to a 

Passion Pit show, fucking idiots, I just want to attend

 their shows all the time and watch them play until my 

eyes bleed. Preferably for free...kind of like groupies. 

I know there are many jobs out there where you

 can get in a show without hassle(manager, music journalist,

blah blah blah), but meh. Meh. 

Can't I just be paid to be a "music appreciator"?

  Oh geez,I bet I sound like the laziest fuck ever, that's fine.

DO I EVER MAKE SENSE? UGH.

What do you guys think about "groupies"?

P.S. No hate towards Cory. She's a hustler and that's rad.
