Maybe the people like me who were going to the original Lalapalooza's are now thirty-something with kids and a morgage. The times they are a changin'. I still love the music. Modest Mouse is like the best band on earth, but driving to Alpine Valley from Milwaukee to spend a crap-load of money for tix and food, and spend a whole day with a bunch of teenagers who still think dying your hair black makes you an individual, wondering the whole time if I should have cut the lawn that morning and if the babysitter remembered to give the kids naps, is just not going to happen. Boy, I need a drink.
