Washed-up two-bit has-been

I watched the band Chicago play a concert a few weeks ago. Last time I saw them, I had a full head of hair, back in the days of wood-burning computers. Both concerts were excellent. A talented band with a unique sound.

The three original members who are still in the band were quite different in the recent concert. They were enjoying themselves this time around. One of them even promised to the crowd that they'd never break up or stop touring again. Nobody wants to be a "has been."

Too often we take the great thing we have going for granted and then move on to greater things that don't turn out so great.
