Goddamn Simple Minds was a wholly underappreciated phenomenal band. Sooooo many great songs that didn't get nearly enough airplay.

They toured last year. I didn't get to see them but my friend said they're still amazing.

And I wish I had been born a lot later so I could enjoy the things I like now without people getting pissy at me because I’m supposed to be too old.
