OK, here's the deal. I still have all my shit, I don't hate on the Asylum or anyone in it. Just one day took a hard look at all the LPs and all of the hardware accumulated, and freaked. Who's gonna deal with this if I get hit by a bus? Plus, I feel shame; consumerist, greedy, spendy, you don't need all this stuff you old bastard you. Time to get unencumbered.
So buh-bye VA quick, before I get sucked in again (didn't work obviously). Delete the profile, sell the shit. Run fast, run silent, run deep.
Wasn't so easy though. Jeez, do I really wanna get rid of those Art Blakely albums? The punk albums? The Beatles fer cryin aht lahd?
The shit is still in situ. Not actively trying to sell. Not buying any more rekkids but still pullin' em out and spinning a side or two here an' there.
But I'd flip it for a decent MG Midget/Austin-Healey Sprite in less time than it takes to lift a tone arm.
No smarty-pants comments about old British sports cars, pliz.
The blissful counterstroke-a considerable new message.
