carry on wayward son

sooo... my brother has not been home in about 2 days. he had to work on tuesday and me and elise saw him at lunch, but then he didn't come home. and now here it is, thursday, and he's not home. i called his work and they said he hadn't been there but they weren't too specific.

well, i can't do anything but think and ponder about this song i like called 'carry on wayward son'
which is an old song from the 70s that is by a band called Kansas. when i asked my dad if he knew who the band was (before i figured it out), he thought maybe it was Boston. i guess the names of cities and states were popular band names in that decade.

either way i love this song because the part that everyone knows (carry on my wayward son/there'll be peace when you are done/lay your weary head to rest/don't you cry no more)
is accompanied by a lesser known jam session in between verses. it really is awesome. i never listened to classic rock by choice until about last year maybe the year before but i hadn't heard the full song before. now i've heard it like 10 times and each time i hear it i try to tell my passenger or friend about the pure awesome ness, but they don't seem to get it.

oh well. i shall enjoy it on my own.
