Last Friday, Shannon said jokingly, “Aren’t we supposed to be listening to more mellow music now that we’re getting older?”
I said it then and I’ll say it now: Fuck No.
To be fair, my taste in music is always changing. I get band recommendations from friends, music reviews, Pandora and, of course, NPR, but I do not want my taste in music or my convictions to “mellow with age.”
I hope to expand and keep an open mind–like I have with my music–but I do not want to mellow my opinions. I am trying to understand more, and increase my exposure to varying view points, but I do not think I would actually be myself if I mellowed.

1. A lot of your indy schtuff is mellowish
b. You are not “older”, because that would make me “ancient” and ‘I wanna be…forever young…’
III. You get your musical tip offs from indyforever.com, don’t lie.

Mellow is not an adverb as well, is it? I thought you were commanding us all to be gentle next time.
