I have a love/hate relationship with my home town.

I love my family and my friends and the places I grew up, they are the things I miss when i'm away. I hate the small-mindedness of the majority of people here. It's what makes me say 'escape' rather than 'leave' when i talk about getting out. I don't mean it, i just like the way it sounds.

I have a love/hate relationship with home town shows. I would gladly never play another one if it wasn't for the faces i see looking back at me as we play. It's the only time we play and I can look straight into the eyes of the person that the song is about or for. I love that.

Tonight was good. Right up until the moment it became worse than I had thought it could.
