This song kicks ass for a lot of reasons. One, the bouncy folksy verses paired with the vocally explosive chorus (which could be inspired by either Ted Leo or We Were Promised Jetpacks' live shows). I don't know what it's about, but I like to imagine that he's singing about friends in youth going adventuring with beer in the woods and having an awesome summer day not thinking about much and just dicking around.

You know, innocent days like they have in movies but never happen in reality except for very rarely. Maybe that's just the glasses I wear that color my world, that it's not that someone always fails to have a good time or gets uncomfortable, it's that I am generally a douche and I just don't like doing things with other people.

Maybe there is some place out there in the world where there's a group of friends who laugh and smile all the time and they never argue, and when they do they quickly realize it's silly and share a manly hug and then drink beer and talk politely about women they'd like to bed. Do they have this in Omaha? Kansas? Or do we need to go deep into Real America territory? Then instead of discussing women they discuss Obama's Kenyan birth certificate?

I don't know. I've never been friends with many people who didn't seem to subtly dislike each other under it all. Can you have a group of more than four mutual friends who don't end up talking shit on each other and building up animosity until you can no longer have fun as a cohesive unit? Does it happen? I'm rambling...

This song is good! You can download almost all of their album for free over on their website. It's a pretty good album. The guy has a good & unique voice, and that's like the most important thing.
