You can seee stars shining from Earth for hundreds of millions of years after they've died. The Stones died in Sept 97. The tours were just illusory afterglows. Move on.
Good closing paragraph. I understand that. I can see the B2B & No Security as afterglows.
But it's no illusion they are still here.
Saint Of Me is no afterglow though. Maybe the No Security album is.
We will see in the next year what they plan to do. Like a Start Me Up/Voodoo Lounge sort of comeback or not.
But I do like the afterglow concept allthough It Hurt's Me Too to think it's true.
It also stems from burn out or fade away.
But the afterglow analogy is a new one. I like it, it's another way of looking at it.
