calvin harris' first big song was "acceptable in the 80s" and I think about that phrase a lot
My parents worked together at a Bar/restaurant in the 80's. from the ages of 3-10ish i was basically raised at the bar of this restaurant. Id snack on cocktail peanuts and maraschino cherries all day and the bartender would make me virgin cocktails whenever i asked. The place was always full of people smoking cigarettes and cigars up front and smoking weed/ doing other stuff in the back. Looking back, im like wtf were my parents doing??, but that was just normal back then. If I wasn't with mom and dad, id be with grandma and she smoked like a chimney and would drag me to bingo or some other gathering where all her friends were smoking too. Wild times man.
