caught up with you yesterday

You're standing in the middle of 20,000 people, and Alto Reed hits that first note of Turn the Page, and the roar is deafening. Then all those voices become one voice, note for note, word for word, right along with Bob Seger... "On a long, lonesome highway, east of Omaha...." And,as you sing along, too, you cannot help the goose bumps that rise on your arms.

Then you look to your right, and you see the couple that must be just about Bob Seger's age (but fighting it every step of the way). And they are joined at the mouth, like those sucker fish that clean all the algae out of your fish tank. And you cannot help but throw up in your mouth a little bit.

And you look back to Bob as fast as you can.

*****

Love you, Bob.
