Introduction

This blog serves only as an outlet for me to wax nostalgic about the greatest decade since the 60s. A time when the Portland dream was alive everywhere and Seattle was best known for rain and music instead of rain and a place that music used to come from.

A decade that will be remembered for flannel and boy bands instead of the cultural shift away from the pre-packaged consumerism that defined the decade before it.

A decade whose greatest hero's legacy will never be tarnished past his own selfish and cowardly final act.

A decade that gave artists a voice. A decade where "independent" was not a sub-genre, but a true ideology.

The last unspoiled decade before the internet, when delayed gratification was not a display of will, but just how things were.

The last decade of the century.

The 90s. Whatever.
