REO Speedwagon - Time for me to fly
From live at Heartland. I think the concert was in 2010 and the dvd/blu-ray was released in 2011. I love this verison of the track.
The whole concert can be found here. Everyone who love REO Speedwagon and this video should really see this:

I’m 62 and I may be old but I got to see musicians the caliper that will never be repeated. Ever. How lucky I was to live 15 minutes from Madison Square Garden too.

[@rockbay79]

Between 1977 and 1980, I saw REO live on five separate occasions. Then, at 20 years old, I made a 20 year career in the U.S. Air Force, which I retired from in 2002. Now, here it is 17 years after my retirement and these guys still sound the same, but man have we all grown older. I'm 57 years old now and have lost so many friends, relatives and lovers over the years, and so many icons of stage and music. It just all seems so sad to me. Getting old is tough, painful and draining on the soul and spirit. I need a happy day. Pray for me, I will for you. Peace all.

[@johnkristian]

I'm an atheist, not living in usa, so I won't pray for you. But i'll recognize all the things you've done for your country and what all your friends have meant for you. Music like this makes us remember. All that is well and all that is not. The only thing we can do on this planet is make our life comfortable for our selves and for our next of kin. And music is one of humanities great acknowledgements that shows us how unice we are and and it gives us everything from happiness and strenght to sadness and sorrow. Hang in there, bud!.57 is really not that old! You still have A LOT to gain and to give! :)

I was 19 when this song/album came out. Privileged to have lived and came of age in those years of the late 60s thru early 80s, saw so many great bands, an era never to be seen again. Today has some good music, some decent bands but it pales in comparison to that time. I’m 63 now and it sounds as good as it ever did. And this is still the best breakup/divorce song EVER.

Dancing Candle 4:25 This parts a giveaway. Once you’ve listened to enough auto-tuned songs, you start to be able to hear the auto-tune in other songs. Also, Kevin Cronin was always a little bit pitchy in the 70/80’s so I’m sure it was probably needed here sadly.

Yup, I grew up with them as well. I was a kid of the 70's and graduated HS in '82. I remember my brother cranking "Riding the Storm Out" on his Realistic 8 track player. I listened to that entire album over and over. Then when REO started getting more pop, I fell in love with that side of them as well. My two boys, both 17, love my generations music over anything that's produced now. Sure wish I could take them to one of REO's concerts in the near future. Love my family, but sure miss the '80s!
