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)

Congratulations to @Missmommapanda. Your question was chosen for tonight’s Ask Greg and the Panelists.
@Missmommapanda Thinking back to your childhood: were you a ‘truth’ kid or a ‘dare’ kid - and what’s the funniest or most unforgettable moment you can actually share with us today?
We are so grateful to have found The Gutter and to be part of a place where we can meet wonderful people and feel a real sense of community. We truly have so much to be thankful for, and today we love to celebrate that together.
Please share your Thanksgiving moments with us—what you’re thankful for, what made you smile, or the simple joys that made today special.
As for me, I’m thankful that my family is healthy and happy, that the kids have their homes and their jobs, and that I can pause during the day to notice something in nature I don’t see every day…..flock of starlings murmuring around our refinery.
Those little moments mean everything.
Happy Thanksgiving from my heart to yours.
It is 43° and windy but feels like 39……anyone see Jeff Dye’s “feels like”?
What to do on a very chilly day? Make focaccia bread of course.
What do you do on a miserable day to keep busy?
