This morning while skimming through my Allure magazine, I came across the below article claiming that the newest “it” hairstyle was the grunge look.

Don't get me wrong; when grunge WAS new, I was right there in the middle of it. "Borrowing" my Daddy's newest flannel shirts and cutting off the sleeves (to wear over my tanks); wearing the cutest baby doll dresses w/my Doc Martens (just found my old pair at my Mama’s house); stage diving at The Tabernacle in Atlanta when I had NO BUSINESS being there; should have been studying when instead I was watching the movie, "Singles" for the gazillionth time, etc… BUT(!!), the ONE thing I didn't embrace was the nasty grunge hair.

Yeah, thanks but no thanks. Grunge hair in the 90's equaled stinky, dirty hair.

My first reaction was, “Am I getting old??   Could THAT be the reason why I scoffed at the so-called new hairstyle?  Nooooo, couldn’t be.”.   That’s right about the time when the part of my brain that justifies almost anything by changing the situation into a
positive remembered this:  Don’t be silly, of course it’s not!   Remember, you didn’t like it THEN, so why in the world should you like it NOW?     Whew, that was close.   ; )

BTW, in case you’ve been under a rock, Soundgarden’s newest album, King Animal, (first one in 16 years, released back in Nov.) is fantabulous…and Chris Cornell is still looking rather fabulous as well. 

Pearl Jam is to release their “experimental” album this year.

Alice in Chains is currently on tour minus, Layne Staley, obviously.  Will they sound as good?  Don’t know; guess Kevin and I will just have to go see for ourselves.  ; )

Mudhoney releases their new album, Vanishing Point, April 2nd.

I could go on and on and on, when talking about this genre of music, but instead I think I need to stop blogging and get back on the air.  If I don’t, I might not have a job, then I couldn’t afford shampoo and then I WOULD have the new “it” hairstyle.  ~~shudders~~     ; )
