Inside Out



remember zack de la rocha's hardcore band called inside out? i do. they had a 7" called no spiritual surrender released on revelation records, a label where i once held my longest ever job. that band was part of the reason i took the minimum wage order entry position. it had to do with a fantasy i had since i was about 13. i dreamed of losing my virginity to zack de la rocha. i thought taking the job would help. if you were once a teenage girl and into rage against the machine, you'd understand why.

turns out the job did help me, however, not exactly as i hoped ... i lost my virginity to a guitar playing, pill popping, politically uncharged webmaster named shitty shaan. i never did meet zack but i did meet and was once interviewed by vic dicara, also of inside out and shelter (ray cappo's hare krishna band). what a nice man he was.
