Dazed and Confused

I've seen this 1993's movie some days ago and I loved it! I don't know why I haven't seen it before... It doesn't have special effects, tricky story, a surprise element... it's just like that.. simple like shooting your group of friends from high school, you might identify each one of them. It's about american teenagers in the 70's, not an american teenager's movie. They do stupid things, but not the type of things like putting bobby into a pie or so...
It brought me memories from some years ago (not THAT many!) the welcome ceremony for freshman, driving around the city with your mates, organizing parties, being scolded by your parents and so on.
What I liked best was the soundtrack, I definitely like 70's rock. Alice Cooper, Deep Purple, Foghat, Lynard Skynard, Judas Priest, The Doors, Kiss, U2.. WHOA!! I wish I was born in my parent's time.. but then I wouldn't be here now. I envy them for they had the chance to live in those times... but who knows, maybe my kids (if I ever have!) would be feeling the same about the 90's , which I don't hate ;) Maybe it's about how and not when you live your "old times". And I guess I wouldn't see Radiohead live!
