School of Rock

Recent conversation in the car with BAD Indiana radio on in the background. Song playing: Van Halen's "Panama."

"Dude, this reminds me of something on Guitar Hero." J begins to bob his head. "Where did this kind of rock go? Have you heard the new Eddie Vedder songs? I mean, they don't even sound like this."

"That's because this isn't Pearl Jam." I reply.

"Yeah, I know, its Van Halen."

"Eddie Vedder played in Pearl Jam. Eddie Van Halen was Van Halen."

"No wonder it doesn't have the same sound."

"Yeah, ok, I'm going to start calling you after my Mom. She kept calling Bon Jovi, Moonjavi."

"Shut up, dude." J immediately turns it up and begins to make up lyrics to sing along with the squealing David Lee Roth.
