BOSTON: HOW THEY'RE BACK, WHY THEY'RE BACK & OTHER MATTERS OF IMPORT
Maybe rock ’n’ roll audiences aren’t quite as fickle as I thought. Maybe they don’t forget from one week to the next. After all, it’s been eight years since anyone heard from Boston and look what happened: a #1 single, “Amanda.” A #1 album, Third Stage.
BOSTON: HOW THEY'RE BACK, WHY THEY'RE BACK & OTHER MATTERS OF IMPORT

Maybe rock ’n’ roll audiences aren’t quite as fickle as I thought. Maybe they don’t forget from one week to the next. After all, it’s been eight years since anyone heard from Boston and look what happened: a #1 single, “Amanda.” A #1 album, Third Stage. Platinum upon release, over five million copies sold, the nine-week tour completely sold out. But, then again, this is Boston we’re talking about. A band recognized for superior material, superior album sales (over 20 million with only three discs to their names), superior performances. Maybe it’s not a matter of fickle or not fickle. Maybe the bottom line is that regardless of trends and fashion, at the end of the day, rock ’n’ roll fans still have good taste!
