Even though a bit blurry, I love this video. What a great view!
I love it when at about 2:50 mark John looks over and does a double take right into the camera.
It is from this perspective that I have always dreamed to experience at a live show of a favorite performer/band.
Also, this is probably my favorite John Mellencamp song.
"She had a dream
And boy it was a good one
So she chased after her dream
With much desire
But when she got too close
To her expectations
Well the dream burned up
Like paper in fire
Paper in fire
Stinkin' up the ashtrays
Paper in fire
Smokin' up the alleyways
Who's to say the way
A man should spend his days
Do you let them smolder
Like paper in fire
He wanted love
With no involvement
So he chased the wind
That's all his silly life required
And the days of vanity
Went on forever
And he saw his days burn up
Like paper in fire
Paper in fire
Stinkin' up the ashtrays
Paper in fire
Smokin' up the alleyways
Who's to say the way
A man should spend his days
Do you let them smolder
Like paper in fire
There is a good life
Right across the green field
And each generation
Stares at it from afar
But we keep no check
On our appetites
So the green fields turn to brown
Like paper in fire
Paper in fire
Stinkin' up the ashtrays
Paper in fire
Smokin' up the alleyways
Who's to say the way
A man should spend his days
Do you let them smolder
Like paper in fire"
Zephyr Illusions photo by donna October 1992. The view atop Chasseral, Jura Mountains looking across Switzerland to The Alps on the horizon. Fog, intensely thick, rising from Lac Bienne and stretching its fingers high onto the Lignières-Plateau de Diesse after wholly filling the valley below the plateau.

~~~ Blowing In on The Zephyr ~~~
After a bit of a hiatus, I've discovered that I can still login here...
*check, check, 1,2,1,2, check*
Now, let's see if I can remember how to post entries...
Hey, my Flickr photo album still works; click on the photo album on right sidebar :o)
Awesome metal art outside Steve's Live Music in Sandy Springs, Georgia.
