Why oh why does "A Message" have to be so damn good?

I just got back from Greg Graffin's solo performance and after seeing him play "Suffer" and "Sorrow" with an acoustic guitar, and got to thinking. Someone oughta tell Brett Guerwitz that if he and Greg would like to play an acoustic set of Bad Religion songs every night in a small dive bar as a tour, my suspicion is tons of people would like to see it.

Or, hell. Do an acoustic CD or something. But before that. PUT "THE SURFACE OF ME" ON A REAL RELEASE.

 Hell, I just watched an entire bar of jaded old punkers screaming out "sorrow no moooooore". Guys maybe 10 or 15 years older than me around, singing the same song that hit like a bolt from the blue. That was an amazing feeling. Here was a bar filled with people I'd never otherwise meet belting out "Sorrow" and "Suffer" with me. If there's any question about Bad Religion's longevity, I think tonight ended that question for good.

Some things last. Bad Religion is one of them.
