We drank a toast to innocence. We drank a toast to now. And tried to look beyond the emptiness. But neither one knew how.

Dan Fogelberg died this weekend of prostate cancer. He was just 56 and was diagnosed only three years ago. Yikes. Yes I realize it was the 70s. Yes it rings a little cheesy. Yes he was saddled with the label of being one of these so-called “sensitive singer-songwriters.” But I’m telling you today, still to this very moment of my quite cynical life, I cannot hear “Leader of the Band” without shedding a tear.

Another old lang syne indeed.
