I dunno. Not a big Seger fan, but I remember cruising around Pontiac
with my cousin in his souped up Firebird when there was nothing but Seger
on the radio. I mean you heard it everywhere. There was something strange
about all that nostaligia tint to his stuff. This was when the Detroit
area auto industry was in free fall, and all the juniors of the folks who
went to sleep in Detroit City were getting in their cars with the black
Michigan plates (remember southerners calling em the black tag people?),
and heading back to the ancestral homes looking for work. Which is why my
cousins now live in Tennessee. Segers music always struck me as kind of
dirge like.
