Consequences, Observations, and Rewards

Slipping down a ramp at the ASU basketball arena almost into the crotch of a cop Watching a cop pull a bag of weed out of Richard's shirt pocket at the Coliseum Trying not to get arrested Smoking dope in the bathroom Smoking dope in the parking lot Smoking dope in the lobby Smoking dope every chance we got Standing seven rows in tripping watching Prince play the guitar like nobody's business and then some Seeing a hooker up close for the first time on the corner of Thirty-Second Street and Van Buren Hitchhiking from New River to Mesa with Brown Deer and Pete Sleeping in a half-finished house after seeing Ian Hunter and Mick Ronson blow the roof off the sky at the Mesa Amphitheater Watching Johnny almost get squished waiting in line to see Kiss Waiting two and a half hours in the parking lot of the Mason Jar talking to a Major about Apocalypse Now Knowing the chances of getting a ride at two AM are pretty slim Sticking my thumb out anyway Freezing my ass off Richard saying how can it be lucky to lose all your weed before the show even starts A lot of walking down dirt roads to get there
