I'm still chasing my youth. My grown-up sons (and their wives) call it mid-life crisis, but what do they know? They're just kids!

If you like this, like I do, you'll like certain selections from The Benjamin Gate (disbanded 2003).

Good, but Albert Camus said it even better. Ever heard of an existential life?  |

Good tune, but the title is a somewhat hackneyed phrase. The lyrics are pretty good though - maybe someone will write a song called "Experience Is Wasted On The Old".

I'm not ultra impressed by a band from today being able to replicate a tired sound from the bland 80s. There is a lot of music I DO like from that era, but this sound was so frequently used. Just am glad to hear it end...
