Once upon a time bands simply called it a day and that was really it. Seems the past decade or more has seen every spider hobbling back from under the rocks. Most for the worse. But some bands are still putting out good work. Ah wasted youth. How we'd all like to do it over 'the right way.' Best not to think about it too much. CheersAnthony J.

The life of the band reminds me of the Angels and all their troubles after Doc Neeson got injured. The Angels should have broken up then. They came to Wang but because Doc was no longer the front man I didn't bother going to see them. It's a strange song, because as a young bloke and they were probably mid-20's you don't tend to think too far into the future, I didn't. I do like the quotes at the top and bottom. The more you know the more you know you don't know. Probably part of getting back together was a hopeless attempt to recapture the spirit of their youth. Personally I think back to how ignorant I was back then, and mostly would not want to revisit it. Graham Clementshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06430135062211828206noreply@blogger.com
