This poem got me out of bed early one morning, I'm not sure it wasn't a dream.
IT’S THE APPLAUSE THAT’S SO DAMN ADDICTIVE
We had a number one in Italy, launched the next album there, performed the side long title track on primetime national tv
But that was back in the 70s, and I’m told the royalties are still in the post
Our glory days, back before the first break up as we lost traction amid the fashions changing
now we get back together when the accounts say its time and play venues like this
I suppose in part it's based on all those prog rock bands from the 70s, or possibly any band that is resilient enough to keep coming back. To be honest, I'm not sure what to do with it.
Here's Bronco, an English band from the early 70s who never got back together.
Until next time.
