[sidebar: I have this absolutely scientific, ridiculously habitual, near superstitious ritual when I fly. Given the fact that I have a 45 minute bladder (sometimes I get WILD and push it to an hour and 10, but that just isn't pretty). Anywho, so as soon as they make the announcement that they are boarding first class citizens, I mean passengers, I head to the head. (is that a boat term or airplane term too? Hmmm, not sure). Anyway, I go...(did you see what I did there? I go?)]
Well, today on my journey to the John, I heard the Indigo Girls playing over the speakers. And I thought, mmmm, I love the Indigo Girls. (and no, it's not a requirement for all lesbians, because I know you went there!). And then my next thought..."Well, look at them, they've hit the big time. They are playing over the main speaker at an airport....or wait. Maybe that's like the kiss of has-beens. You've been around so long and you're so mellow that we can play you in the background and it doesn't bother even the little airport mice who clean up the place at night."
So that's my question..."if you're a musician, is it the big time or the has been when you're a regular on Muzak?
