I needed to read this tonight. Thank you JB. I even liked Tasmanian Babes Fiasco

I think it’s a bit related to that phenomenon of retaining a great affinity for the music (and music styles) of the music you liked in a certain period of your teens.

With those friends (as JB describes) who are really special blood brothers and sisters, I think it is those people you bond with when you are still forming as an adult. After about age 23, it’s probably unlikely you’ll get another.

Thanks JB. You've inspired me to reach out to a friend who I thought had faded into the mists of history. Hopefully it will go well.
