The Cars were my favorite band for a few years during the 1978-1984 period.
I saw the band in Downtown Crossing (Boston) just as they were becoming famous. They were doing a photo shoot for their debut album apparently. I eventually bought that album at the Strawberries outside Fenway Park a few months later after a Red Sox game.
Really starting to feel my mortality now!
You’re not alone. Not sure exactly when it was for me but maybe once I passed 50 I no longer felt bulletproof. I’m in reasonable health but know I’m not 20 anymore.
