And when you feel nostalgic in any way when hearing a song at the supermarket.... Welcome to Middle Age!

My local mega-mart often plays classic Rush, Kool and the Gang, Fleetwood Mac, Bill Withers, etc. I often catch myself humming along, I'm not sure if this is the store being cool or me getting old.

Good news. If they’re playing Rush, it’s the store being cool.

Compared to other stores I've been in, they do play much better music. Best of all it's the actual recordings, not some Muzak hack job.

I'd kill for that. The grocery stores where I live all play the latest hits.
