Hi, Jyqm! Your question is a good one. A long time ago, I used to see Fleetwood every time, probably because I was young. Today, I'm not, so I don't see the band. They play nearby at Irvine Meadows but I just blow it off. My fanaticism is nothing but embers by now, feeding off its own char & nitrogen; the phalanx of Time & Circumstance have trodden it into the desert sands of a live already lived.
My memories of sultry summer evenings watching the band play outdoors (you couldn't see the stars or the moon because Los Angeles is too smoggy) seem like millennia ago -- not just a different time in my life but a different lifetime altogether. Cold are the Hands of Time, Jyqm, in their relentless, inexorable march across the Face of Life's Fortunes.
