frontman friday: kevin cronin

another friday is here. we're less than a week away from thanksgiving!
WHERE HAS THIS YEAR GONE?
because we all know how it goes; it's thanksgiving, you blink and then it's christmas, you blink and it's the new year. it's downright crazy to think that it's basically 2015. remember when 2015 seemed like a really far away time?

i bet that's how today's frontman feels too.

he blinked and had a career of work: kevin cronin
even with the terrible curly mullet (which i'm sure was in 
fashion then) he still looks cool.

cronin is the crooner in REO Speedwagon
there's a part of me that's a tiny bit sad that i wasn't alive
during this era because the clothes and the hair and 
everything are just something else. 

kevin is responsible for penning two of REO's most famous songs, keep on loving you and i can't fight this feeling anymore. i could listen to i can't fight this feeling anymore on repeat for an entire day. 

my parent's have seen them perform several times and have never taken me with. rude, right? 'cause current day kevin cronin has still got it. 
still owning that mic.

some fantastic things came out of the 80's including myself and love songs that have stood the test of time so that college girl wearing that "born in the 90's" sweatshirt that i saw earlier today can just shut it.
