Niko's Sheet: Influence, Be Rock n Roll



Is rock n roll really dying? Is it even dead already?
No.
Rock n Roll's alive and well. Rock n Roll's still among the hearts - of the few that is. Rock n Roll - the genre, the lifestyle, is now just like an old toolbox in your garage. Covered in dust, greasy perhaps. Rock n Roll's not dead, but is slowly forgotten; fading.

It just takes a curious kid to find that old tool box and use it to discover, to create something by using those greasy tools from that one old tool box, metaphorically speaking - Rock n Roll needs a whole new kind of generation and appreciation for IT to remain. Because it would be a shame to lose such genre. It's like losing your favorite childhood toy and replacing it with a new one. It could be alike, but it wouldn't feel like the old one, the one that you've lost.

Yes, I'm sorry for turning this shit into a long read, if not, a waste of time.

My point is that; we don't need to save rock n roll from dying because, Rock n Roll is forever. What we need to do is - to spread it out, let it be known by all of them party fuckers, those who haven't heard of rock n roll. Let rock n roll be a "medium". Let it be associated with this hopeless generation and to the next. Let rock n roll feel alive not dying. Let's not make it feel like it's forgotten. Let rock n roll be rock n roll. But yes, let's not bring back those glamorous, hideous hairstyles they are merely a façade, form of expression- a fashion statement rather than a form of passion.  But, let us appreciate the classic. And so, as I'm about to conclude, I want you to remember this shit:

"Influence, Be Rock n Roll"

Understand this shit deeper. And soon enough, you'll be.

So turn that volume gauge up.

Peace, Love and Everything.
