Table of contents for The Record Contract目录，以便记录在案合同

We were still waiting for a response to our proposed contract changes from Delious and the rest of the Trijon gang.我们仍然在等待回应我们提出的合同更改delious和其余的trijon刚。 Now that Matt and I had so much in common we began to spend more and more time together.现在，马特和我有这么多的共同点，我们开始花更多的时间在一起。 He’d call from work just to talk.他要呼吁从工作只是谈一谈。 We’d get together in the evenings and go to dinner, or out to hear a live band.我们要一起在晚上去吃饭，或以听取现场乐队。

One day he called me with an offer of a concert.一天，他打电话给我与要约的一场音乐会。 “Hey, someone in the office just gave me their box tickets to Starwood for a show tonight. “嘿，有人在办公室，只是给了我他们的方块门票Starwood公司为今晚的表演。 You want to go?”你想要去的“ ？

Secondly, despite a brief period of time in the early nineties, neither of us could claim to be “Rockin’ the Mullet.” I’ve had less trouble identifying gender from behind in drag bars.其次，尽管简短的时间内，在90年代初，无论是我们可以自称为“ rockin '乌鱼， ”我已经少麻烦，确定性别，从背后在拖曳的酒吧。

By the third song, I was bored.由第三首歌，我是无聊。 I don’t understand a band that can skate by on all the effects and synthesized sounds in lieu of talent.我不明白，乐队，可以滑冰，由对所有的效果和合成的声音代替的人才。 I don’t understand the fans.我不明白球迷。 (Sorry for any Rush fans reading this, but seriously, get some fucking taste.)

And that, my dear single mother and her best friend who could only afford lawn seats and a babysitter, is how you came to be in possession of those prime box seats to the Rush concert.而且，我亲爱的单身母亲和她最好的朋友，谁只能负担草坪上的座位和保母，你是如何来到被藏在这些总理方块议席繁忙的音乐会。 You cried when we offered your our stubs to move forward.你哭了，当我们提供您我们的存根，向前迈进。 I hope you still tell the story of the cute gay guys that upgraded you that night.我希望你仍然告诉的故事，可爱的同性恋球员升级你那天晚上。
