Bob Seger "Turn the Page."

I have been struggling all day to remember the lyrics to this song from my misspent youth. No, I don't know why.

It is a classic "inside baseball" song about life as a touring musician. I think I loved the song in my high school days because I was a long-haired band geek who often heard comments "is that a boy or girl."

because they tell what it's like to be the performer, the human being behind the star image.

Grand Funk Railroad's "American Band."

If my parents had ever seen the inside of the album cover, it would have been lost forever.

Ah, the lost days of my misspent youth.....

One of the reasons I spent almost 9 years studying martial arts.

Great song, I've love it since the first time I heard it.
