THE CINDERELLA STORY


so one day, many years ago i was on this little trip, when i rode for porn star clothing. so my buddy eric heads up to portland for a couple of days and we are gonna met up in santa cruz. well in between the time i am to meet up with him, i see at the LBC they are gonna have a cinderella show. so a couple of days later i meet up with eric down in santa cruz and tell him bout this show of epic proportions. i was all "fuck yeah " cinderella is comin to town. i was stoked. so when eric heard this he was stoked for me. cuz eric is one of a few that understands my weird taste in music, since i grew up a hesher. so i told him tickets go on sale in a couple of weeks and that was that. about 3 months later eric calls me up from santa barbra to see how life was goin. we he asked me "how was that cinderella show?"
oh man , i said. so i called up the ticket place to buy some tix, when i asked the lady is it the original line up? and she seemed perplexed. you know the band. and she said what. then i said the band cinderella they play rock and roll. is it the original guys? thats wen she hit me with the bad news. i am sorry sir this isn't a rock band, it's the disney version. i was so bummed, here i was pumped to hear "nobody's fool" and all i got was the thought of a glass slipper stuck in my head. so to this day eric claims this story is one of his favorites. i always seem to forget about it, till we are drinking and he breaks it out........good on ya eric. thanks for keepin a pub tale alive.
