A while back, Mikedot told me about how he enjoyed reading Rivers Cuomo's blog on MySpace. I had forgotten about it, until I randomly found a link to it in an article on MTVNews.com (the source for ALL of my news).
Check it out. It's interesting to read the thoughts of a 35 year old guy who just happens to be a big rock star.
He's even posted his application essays to Harvard. They're OK, but I thought my essays were better... and I didn't even mention the Foo Fighters.

From his 1994 letter: "The worst part about being a rock star is that my emotional life has been put completely on hold...I am just numb. I miss the soap opera of settled life."
I'm no rock star, but I know exactly what he's talking about.
Being so deeply involved in music has a way of doing that to you, even if you aren't spending your whole life on the road.
As for being on the road - I think his comments are exactly right. It's hard to get anything started when all you're doing is moving around.
Maybe if you HAD mentioned the Foo's you'd have been accepted into Harvard, and by now you'd be a crazy driver with an annoying accent.
I didn't apply to Harvard - Boston was the last place I wanted to spend 4 years.
