MORE ‘TEST FLIGHT’ LYRICS REMEMBERED – ADDITIONAL VERSE FEARED

When we last interviewed would-be rock star Bill McDonald, he was describing his song “Test Flight”, (See post below), in which he modestly compared strumming his guitar in a basement in Spokane, to the launch of a Saturn rocket. Since the interview was published, Bill has recalled some additional lines:
“The realities certainly seem quite differently, and cynics always try and bring you down. Baby, if they were around, the Wright Brothers never would have made it off the ground.”
Here, the 20-something-year-old compares problems his band was facing because of drugs, egos, and a talent shortfall, to mankind’s historic first flight. There are no plans to contact Rolling Stone with news of the latest lyric flashback, but the song, the band, and frankly, the man himself, are still in line for the cover of “Pretentious Magazine.”
