This Is Me

Written By Allyson B. Crawford


It's totally weird, isn't it? I mean, I can be standing near complete strangers and if they start talking about Aerosmith or Motley Crue or I See Stars or the like - my ears immediately prick up. If the conversation seems cordial, I will even butt in and give me two cents and proclaim my love for whatever band is being discussed.

I'll strike up conversations with strangers at live shows of bands I love because we have that inherent connection. We're both there because we love the same music.

This might not be a big deal to you, but I'm a big time introvert. I love being left alone. I keep to myself. I'm the quiet, moody creative type your mother warned you about. But man, if you mention a band I love - well, you've got me. We'll probably be friends forever. Extra credit if you can name all the songs off Rocks in order. So this is me. Is it you, too? I assume it is because you're reading this site and that's our bond: through time, space and the Internet.
