David started to chuckle in the passenger seat as he was watching the Boylston St business pass us by.
“What?” I asked.
“I haven’t told you yet why we can never ever play the song ‘Tortoise’ live ever again.”
“No, you haven’t and what?!” I was half curious on why that would be, and half pissed that, if David was serious, we just lost a song forever.
“Well, you know the all the synth lines on that song were from a keyboard that we built ourselves. We built it out of parts and is one of a kind. You can’t buy that keyboard, or even fix it if it ever got broken.”
“I didn’t know that.” I replied.
“Ya, well after a show just recently, we were loading the equipment and the Tortoise Keyboard was dropped and shattered into a million pieces onto the ground.”
“Are you serious?”
“Ya, so unless we play that song acoustic, which will never happen, that song has been put to rest forever. I can never rebuild that keyboard.”
Paying attention to the street lights, and the rules of the road, I let out an, “Oh man” realizing exactly what he was saying.
The funny thing was that “Tortoise” was probably my least favorite God Lives Underwater song off both cds next to “Try”. As much as it was awful that song was sent to the God Lives Underwater graveyard prematurely, it wasn’t like he just told me that the keyboard that was used in “Weaken” had been destroyed. Still a typical David story though.
