So it bums me out to read this blog and felt compelled to say a few things. I can see many similarities between the two...we are not talking WWF or WWE wrestling here, we are talking about the underground wrestling world that Mike is/has been involved with for years. And we are not talking about so-called HC music that sells out the Forum, we are talking about real HC....The biggest similarity I can see is this....These people who are involved with HC and wrestling are doing it for one reason...BECAUSE THEY LOVE IT!!! they don't do it for fame and fortune, they do it because something inside them tells them that they, on some level, NEED to do it, it's who they are, and it's what makes them happy. It's not to be in the spot light, it's to be apart of something that is special to them. It's not about groupies and beautiful women, it's about looking into the crowd and seeing how "some" of the people there get what you are doing, or what you are singing about. It's not about being a corporate kiss ass and playing along with the ideas that "others" believe you need follow...it's about following one thing...YOUR HEART!!!! <br />Mike has been involved with both, for many many years, he will forget more than most of you/us will remember...So if HE says there are similarities...I believe him, and so should you!<br />Mike...If you have to explain, they wouldn't understand...keep doing what you are doing, keep it real, and keep it close to your heart!! I love you brotha!!!<br /><br />DANIEL ADAIRAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2768432211492653817.post-5777711960991288412011-03-16T12:43:06.772-04:002011-03-16T12:43:06.772-04:00A person can draw similarities to anything TJK
