You ever have a band that you fall absolutely in love with -- live and breathe it for days, weeks, months or even years....and then something happens, and you just don't buy that next album. it went from obsession to neglect.
mine was U2. i was so overwhelmed by them. Boy, to me, remains their shining achievement. I loved October, and the third record, and the fourth less so.
maybe it coincided with their rising fame, and it no longer came my special secret. i saw them a tiny club, but now i was forced to share them with millions, in arena settings.
also their songs got longer, more ponderous, and less hooky.
whats your example?
( i also felt this way about the police. and it also coincided with fame, so maybe its more about me than it is about them)
For those of you who are interested, the owls have returned to last year’s nest. The neighbors are so thrilled!! I’m being a tad sarcastic. I caught one flying to the window box Thursday evening and then to the tree in the video below. They moved all the fake flowers in the window box to make room for the growing family. No eggs yet. Just prep work.
As for my sarcasm, their daughter had to move out of her room last year due to all the owl noise. Her parents were thrilled to have a new roommate. And once the owls left the nest, they left a very disgusting, smelly mess.
