Sounds like I'm in great company. 55 year old wine moms from Wisconsin are the backbone of the world's economy.

The people of Toronto are wise. They are not Drake fans, they are Train fans, given that Ontario borders the home state of Train singer Pat Monahan.

Point being, if I take just as long to explain to A.I. what it needs to do, why would I not write the thing myself?

You know what album has an incredible bullpen: Train's "Drops of Jupiter." Once you get passed all the singles, then you got tracks like "Mississippi," "I Wish You Would," and "Getaway," amongst others. The Blue Jays of 90s alt rock, if you will.

I find myself rereading the same couple of books every year or two. A summary is never the point. It's always about getting something new out of some small idea somewhere tucked away.

Some would argue, that what happened in 1992 was a key argument that lead to the break up of the PA based band "Rouge Gallery." Their singer would move to CA to start the Grammy Award winning band Train. They would eventually write the song "Hey Soul Sister." A hit beloved by all.

If you want, I can burn you a CD of some of my favorite songs.

And while I'm at it, Maroon 5 is great, too!

Yet another band you just get totally wrong. Train is excellent. Now, I do agree that Hey Soul Sister is a worse song than anything from their first two albums, but alas.

Actually! I believe their album "Live at Royal Albert Hall" came out last year, and I listened to it walking around Banff.

Honestly, one of the best concerts I've ever been to.

They are, objectively, the second best artist to come out of Canada, and one of the greatest of all time. Steven Page's solo stuff is also great.

Friends, why are we not talking about the goat, "Sabrina the Teenage Witch" (we can ignore the final two seasons).

we don't joke about Incubus, Bryn. They one of the defining bands of history, along with Third Eye Blind, and Hoobastank.
