A review of this — 15 weeks ago
This was a reread of what should be considered a classic tale of the “drifter” generation: the one that missed the love and peace of the ‘60s but was too old to be the Boomers’ spoiled children. Dave, the main character, is conducting an aimless life as a guitarist in a wedding band who accidentally becomes engaged to his girlfriend of 15 years, then just as haphazardly begins an affair with another girl weeks before his wedding. Dave can’t seem to feel passionate about anything, and perhaps that’s why he has no purpose. But we like him despite that, as well as his cronies in the band, and when they really start to rock together, we are right there with them, asking for just one more song.
