for those about to rock...

I love Wolfmother! The part of me that loves Wolfmother is the same part that saw AC/DC live when I was 16. The same part of me that used to love to park on gravel roads with the Pohlman brothers and drink beer while listening to Rainbow. The Pohlman brothers were the two “dirt-heads” in my high school. They were blond versions of John Bender from The Breakfast Club and they lived in a trailer with their Mom on the edge of town. The only furniture in the trailer was a sofa, a kitchen table, a big screen TV and 3 beds….and a huge “Houses of the Holy” wall tapestry…in the living room. I loved sitting at their kitchen table talking about music. It was so great to find two people that listened to something besides "hair bands" in my hometown in the late 80’s. They couldn’t relate to my Smiths/Clash/X-loving side but they knew who Ritchie Blackmore was…that was enough for me.
