bakersfield....

the enigma that is bakersfield. why does one return, why
does one feel that regardless of where they go, they will
always feel like bakersfield is their home. what a strange
town of strange people. a mecca of music, country in the
30s and 40s and today nu-metal crap like korn, orgy, and
adema are coming out of the woodworks like none other.
strange place this bakersfield has become. harvey hall and
buck owens own the town pretty much, and all of its 200,000
jaded central-southern californians. everyone hates it
there, yet few actually leave for some strange reason.i
grew up wanting to leave, but now i wonder if i should just
go back, go back home. to jason turner, to stephanie
mashburn, to lynn schmidt, to egon gropp, to people i know
and love and those i rarely talk to. that is bakersfield,
that is home.
