Jazz Gallery

Jazz and democracy are two completely different things. One is a form of art, the other is a form of government. Art and government never work together. They would, except for the fact that art is a whiny emo kid that will cut himself over the smallest thing that government asks of it. I mean, seriously. Ever wondered why good artists kill themselves? They're not happy with the exact state of things.

Enough about my crap. The exhibit. Yeah. It wasn't great. It was a bunch of paper stapled to walls. With one good quote that I liked.

The blues gets all inside of you because it's filled with reality about life and death and love and pain and stupidity and grace. It's about what is and what is has angels and demons sitting right at the same table... The blues says that we are not always good. Or bad. We just are... Sad or funny, factual or fantasized, raunchy, majestic, or even maudlin, the blues reassures us with the unpredictability of life itself.

-I forgot to write who said this.

I know that I botched it somewhere too. I think it was right around the life and death stuff. But this connected with me because I personally know this to be true. If you replace "jazz" with "anime." Except, anime is more of a current generation thing. And we all know that the current generation is the best one.

Oh, and the whole Tupac Shakur thing. Yeah, if I were a grammar nazi (OH WAIT I AM ROFL), that would have a massive F on it. I found it interesting that Tupac would be next to whoever that was. Then I realized that it was probably a cheap way to get us interested in this crap.
