For Scott's 21st birthday Darren gave him a framed photograph of the two of them partying back when they lived in Cali and had hair like Jerry Garcia's. It had a touching note on the back, thanking Scott for helping him through some rough times and such, it made Scotty cry.
That's the lovely paradox of the Dream Destroyers, punk rock, "fuck you" in attitude and appearance, but they have this soft, creative, sentimental side that they were willing to share with me. They manifest it, capital I capital T. Like a pack of merry nomads, with nothing but their backpacks, sleeping bags, Greyhound tickets, thumbs, and skateboards, "We go to Burnside every year. But I think this year, we're going to Skatopia." What more can I say? I'll see you there. |
