Derek and Al stood in front of the car they had driven the night before. Smashed and destroyed,shining in the sunlight. Derek looked in the backseat and saw a few articles of clothing and a half empty bottle of scotch. He reached into the car and turned on the stereo,which by some miracle still worked. "Sidekick" by Rancid was playing. As smoke poured from the car's engine Matt Freeman's bass line throbbed like a steady pulse. Al turned around to see Dave walking down the stairs in front of the motel. "Want some scotch?" Al asked,"In the back seat". Dave walked over to the car,reached in through the broken side window and pulled out the bottle. Put it to the sky,felt the liquid pour into his mouth and took a swig.

2 days earlier......

Moans were coming from the bedroom of a young girl Derek had met the previous night. It was 5 till noon and they were finishing up the activities they had started the night before. "My parents will be home soon." The girl said as Derek kissed up her neck,"Damn." was Derek's response. He stood up and searched until he found his pants,pulling his cell out of the front pocket. He brought up his contacts and clicked on Al. No answer. Twenty minuites later Derek's phone rang. "Hello?" Derek Answered. "What's up man?" Al answered,sounding like he was still asleep. "Was a pretty rockin night,right?" Al asked and then quickly said "Meet me at Jack's in a few man. He said we were going somewhere." "Going where?" "I don't know. Better have a drink first though,might not wanna get to sober. You might have to drive." Al said before saying "Peace,"and hanging up.

As Derek walked up the sidewalk to Dave's house he could hear "Over and Over Again" coming from the speakers sitting in the front window. Clap Your Hands Say Yeah! was the current soundtrack to the smoke pouring out of the screen door of the house. Inside Dave and Al were chilling on the couch smoking a long and strange looking joint. "The heck you guys smoking?" Derek said when he saw the joint. "My signature Long J,with a pinch of tobacco to smoothe the flavor" said Dave,grinning. "So where is this place were going,Dave?" Al asked curiously. "Were going on the rock n roll express,a train that keeps rolling 24/7. A train that has an excellent view and a bag of weed in every baggage compartment."

Dave gave Derek and Al each 2 hits of acid. "Shall we toast to the brain cells about to be dominated by talking toasters and purple skys?" Derek asked,looking at Dave. "Your right,better get the boys up there buzzed before we fry 'em." Said Dave. "It's time to rock." Derek said confidently as he downed a shot of dirt cheap liquor.

2 days later......

Dave passed the bottle to Al as they stood in front of the motel. The pile of rubble which was once a car,sat parked along the curb. "Lets go get high." Dave said,with a hazy look in his eyes. "Where are we?" Derek asked as he noticed a sign down the road that said -Come and feel the purple sunshine-. "The rock n roll express." Dave said. "Lets go feel that purple sunshine." Derek said in a calm voice. "I hope her tits are big." Al said as his eyes widened. The 3 Amigos started off down the road,walking single file. Off to feel the purple sun shine,aboard the rock n roll express.

"Box of Rain" by The Grateful Dead was playing in the air,somehow,somewhere,and all 3 could hear it. The Purple sunshine lit up the sky like fireworks on the 4th of July,and something suddenly made the three of them smile. They grabbed one an others hand and walked on down the road.

The End
