Bah!

Dana Stevens laments the 20 year nostalgia gap, failing to dig deeper into what I call "removed nostalgia" that would be nostalgia for bygone nostalgia. For example, I am often guilty of two-off nostalgia. That is nostalgia for people who in the 70's were nostalgic for the people responsible for inspiring the big-band era. I could explain this better
"Too late or still too soon too soon to make lots of bad love and there's no time for sorrow. Run around, run around with a hole in your head 'til tomorrow."
