05/11/07 Current mood: uncomfortable I'm so scared I'm going to die a douche... I'm fucking serious!!! At the beginning of this year I was on WBCN with Hardy, and we were interviewing Andrew Dice Clay... Well it was basically him plugging his shit for 10 minutes and neither of us saying anything to him.... The thing that scared me about the interview was the fact "The Dice Man" is just suppose to be a character. It was a character Andrew thought up based on someone in his neighborhood... But even before we went live on the air the guy couldn't break character... As a matter of fact there was no character... He was the "Dice Man"... There were rumors here and there that he once was a very mellow fellow, but this creeped up on him. He actually did an interview on Arsenio Hall a long time ago where he admitted he was depressed and started crying during the interview... But he still couldn't break character!!! He was crying as the Diceman! Can you imagine if I did that as Steamer????!!!! I played Dodge Street in Salem Massachusetts last Friday night... It's not the Avalon I know, but it was a blast. I didn't wear the sunglasses, and I didn't spend the night picking apart people in the audience, but rather I just sang some tunes about the Northshore/Nintendo/Falling In Love, and enjoyed watching people sing along... You might think they're funny songs, but on the Northshore we live that shit!!! I'm tired of yelling and tearing apart every band and person out there... Even though it was always through the character that shit creeps up on you in real life. I scared away alot of people that might of otherwise saw I was an okay person without the fake cookie monster voice and fright-night wig... And attracted alot of people I didn't want to. Sadly, I know why Boston loves this type of Character. I wish we had more of a west coast mentality in this aspect. I'm so glad with the direction this band is moving in. I hope you will be too. Only a few more weeks and you'll have the new album hopefully! I'm just trying to find some peace of mind now in my life. Don't get me wrong... I'm not going to kill Robby Roadsteamer, but the son of a bitch needs to evolve. For me.... Or else I'll be a million miles away in my head onstage, while I'm yelling what I feel people want to hear. I like alot of bands the character shits on I rather play Zelda on the 64-bit, than to try to put on an untucked dress-shirt/frost my hair, and slum it out at the Sportsbars... I never needed to get laid that bad. I got youtube for that.... So don't feel bad if your not sucked into that shitty scene either. You can learn alot about somebody by killing Ganon with them.... I'm writing a philsophy about this. I cry like a little bitch when the horse dies in THE NEVERENDING STORY... I mean for fuck sakes the horse couldn't make it through the Swamps Of Sadness... I hope I can damnit. I'm tired of feeling this low. I'm tired of taking away days by feeling shitty instead of enjoy the moment.... And the little things that comes with that like watching kids flip their collars up..... I should be working on a super-ninja-pirate type plan to cook hot pockets quicker than 2 minutes in the microwave.... Well I have a whole summer ahead of me for that... P.S...... Thanks to everyone who came to the Street Team Ice Cream Social!!! It was amazing to see a bunch of socially-broken folks interact without booze, and end up having a wonderful time.... We sometimes forget how much fun we had at Junior-High dances being awkward! E-mail Robby at robbyroadsteamer@aol.com
