I would've found a way to visit Seattle during this era. Soak up the musical vibe, rub elbows with the young and untainted gods of grunge. Experience the small, sweaty venues...beat the shit out of Kurt and Layne for their future debauchery, remember Chris when he was still just Chris...and gone to at least 10 times more Pearl Jam concerts. Shit!!
But then you'd change history and the monkeys might be in charge of NYC.
Then why not go to the WTC around 8AM that dreadful morning and call in an anonymous bomb threat to evacuate both towers before the shit went down an hour later.
But then again, what about the airplanes themselves. Bad subject. Sorry!!! I guess I'd call in bomb threats to the Newark airport before the flights took off.
Thinking about it how would I not be questioned by our government?

I was making a joke related to an old movie named Planet of the Apes.
That's probably because my friend got booted out of Great Woods for drinking underage & I had to spend half the night getting her out of jail..
but still.
I can think of other moments in history that I'd return to. Maybe the UMASS 92 show that I wish I'd taken the tickets to when my friend offered them to me.
"If you're looking for someone to pull you out of that ditch, you're out of luck."
Back in the summer of '90 my boyfriend and I were camping at Mt. Ranier park when I hooked up with a couple that were from Seattle and were totally grunge. They told us about the music scene and invited us to come stay at their apartment b/c we were kinda between places at the time. We left the park on our way to the city to find their apartment but got high first and then drove all the fuck over Seattle in a daze and couldn't locate the address. So we just bailed on the idea and headed to California, a bad decision I've often regretted.
Yea and the other thing I'd go back to is my 4th grade music teacher who, when I told her I wanted to play the drums, told me that 'drums were for boys' and I would have to select either the flute or the clarinet. I'd tell her
"F U Mrs. Taresco, your not dashing my dreams of rock stardom with your old school thinking."
I'm gonna bang on that drum like it was the teachers head.

I don't know what I'd do...
Hmm...
Maybe take trips to places/times where historic events were happening so I could see for myself how they really happened?

Eh. Lolla 92 won't be a death bed moment for me.
