I was out late last night with a whole bunch of people around my age. There we were, a few hundred 40 and 50-somethings, swaying, tapping and head bobbing to Dinosaur Jr. Just like back in the day, nobody had a seat. This was a real rock show, for crying out loud.
As I looked around at my peers, I had to wonder what their lives were like. How many of these people have children at home? Or more likely, who have children who have already left the nest? Who are members of the PTA, the neighborhood civic association? Who has to get up the next morning before 6am like me?
Times have changed quite a bit for these music fans since the band was at its peak in the late 80’s and early 90’s, but the music sounded just as good.
