This may be weird, but I enjoy walking in the rain. In college I only carried an umbrella for a short time during freshman year before realizing it was kind of a hassle. After that I just never used one.
If I were in a rock band I’d wanna do one of those cliche videos where we’re playing in heavy rain and it’s in slow motion and everyone’s jumping around and the water is flying from people’s heads and guitars, and did I mention it’s in slow motion so that it looks totally awesome. I’m trying to think of a video like that but can’t remember one off the top of my head. “Thief” by Our Lady Peace has a video where it’s raining, but not for the purpose of being cool so much as to symbolize sadness. I think there was a Live video (Dolphin’s Cry maybe?) where they were playing in rain (I think?). Oh I think I just remembered which one I was thinking of- the “Perfect” video from A Simple Plan, where they’re playing on the roof in the rain. I just think that’s really cool looking.
Anyway it’s something I’ve thought about during the last two days’ nearly-constant downpours, so I thought I’d blogify it.
Rain falls on everyone, the same old rain
