For about six years, from 1968 through 1975, the Band was one of the most popular and influential rock groups in the world, their music embraced by critics (and, to a somewhat lesser degree, the public) as seriously as the music of the Beatles and the Rolling Stones. Their albums were analyzed and reviewed as intensely as any records by their one-time employer and sometime mentor Bob Dylan. And for a long time, their personalities were as recognizable individually to the casual music public as the members of the Beatles.

a "passtime" that takes up your whole life and doesn't allow you to do anything fun because you're too busy with band.
sometimes can be fun, but also hard work. takes some mad skill to be a band nerd. warning: once in band, you automatically become a band geek, even if you don't try
those who quit are losers
p.s. band kids are also known to have some pretty wild parties with a lot of slut dancing
