This upcoming July 20, I’ll be seeing Counting Crows play for maybe the 30th time in concert. I’m very fortunate that my favorite band from college still tours almost every year. They continue to put out great new music as well. Yes, going to concerts and seeing people in their 50s and 60s makes me feel a little old. They broke into the genre as an alt rock band. That’s now more often seen as light rock and pop. I have all their albums, except the current one, autographed in some way shape or form. Clearly, everyone knows their lead singer Adam Duritz the most. He has a very unique, recognizable voice, and, unlike some other singers or groups, he writes all his own lyrics to music, which makes it unique and more meaningful.
