Hahah nope, no getting hit by a train when picking up momma. I was on my way back from visiting the girlfriend in Knoxville when I hydroplaned and spun out into the crash barrier on I-40 East near Hillsborough, N.C. after 1 a.m.. Spent over an hour standing in the median with my guitar and my girlfriend's blue blanket over my head in the biggest downpour in history waiting for the State Trooper and the wrecker to come, and spent 3 hours in a truck stop dripping a puddle of water until my dad could come get me. It happened right in the middle of NWA's "Straight Outta Compton" too. All I could think of was: And I was standin' on the side of the road Rain fallin' on my shoes Heading out for the East Coast Lord knows I've paid some dues gettin' through, Tangled up in blue. But at least I got my Steve fix now.
