Now I feel old, 2026 edition

[robkelk]

Frampton Comes Alive was released 50 years ago today (April 10).

[Bob Schroeck]

To compound that: my sister took Peg and me to a Frampton concert near where she lived at the time, and I was stunned at how old he looked... and this was some twenty years ago or so.

Don't have the4 energy to look up the actual lyrics and do a full treatment, but after pushing to get all the groceries up the stars at once rather than make two loads, I'm most assuredly singing "and I'm regretting it, really regretting it" to the tune of Def Leppard's "Armageddon It." And I'm only a year older than the band, let alone the musicians, though that song is at least what the cool kids listened to in nineteen eighty seven. And there I was thinking it felt weird when I had to stop reflexively writing the eight while putting a date on homework when nineteen ninety rolled around...
