REO Speedwagon "Time For Me To Fly" (Live at Moondance Jam)

[@NDB390]

This brings me back to H.S. and the memories I made with all my friends. Partying, bonfires, fast cars, no cell phones, just living in the moment. Break-ups, movie theaters, skanking rinks. Knowing who your neighbors were . Those were the best days of my life. Seems it’s all changed way more than my liking.

[@VivieneSilva-xe8hg]

HS still sounds like that just without skanking rinks and knowing your neighbors 😭😭🙏🙏

My neighbor in Belleville, Illinois was Mr. Neal Doughty/ keyboards & co- founder of REO Speedwagon! When i was 13 yrs. old he taught me how to play the piano! We lived on Cambridge Drive. He lived #8 & i lived #23. I still play the piano @ 69 yrs. old. "Rock N' Roll Forever... He has brother's -Mark & Mike & Randy! Mark- Rest In Peace.🙏 4/4/2024

[@DanRibar]

my favorite break-up song of all time. Used those words on a lot of soon-to-be-ex girlfriends in the early 80s.

[@MaryR7256]

My husband met REO in Carbondale, IL before they came famous!!

[@EricTodd-m7y]

been listing too REO sense 1980

[@bevnelson5785]

My baby nephew would always calm down listening to REO 😊

[@michellebickers8495]

Wow, Kevin’s voice still sounds great!

[@AnnetteLones]

He still sounds wonderful

[@Kotik_Kompotik.]

Fuck me, this song is as old as these dudes but the voice and all other songs fresh as ice! Dammit, it’s like there wasn’t fiftysomething years playing. Unbelievable!

[@GaryHarrison-n5i]

A lot of these bands just keep kicking ass.age is just a number.

[@GaryHarrison-n5i]

Prob in his 60's but Kevin still looks great.lot of the others wish they could look as good as him.

[@VivieneSilva-xe8hg]

Bros lip syncing. Look at his electric guitar

[@bye007]

@@VivieneSilva-xe8hgHe’s not lip syncing. And you do know there is more than one way to play a guitar, right?

[@Scsigs]

One of the best break-up songs ever.

[@TwoSync]

Outstanding, great great song and performance

[@bigbadbamboo1]

I was 19 and playing in my first band in 1978, I played this song at my best friend's funeral in 1980. I cry every time I hear or see this and I come back often. Love you Tommy

Back when being young was fun. Lots of keg parties and reo playing The good ole days are gone.

[@markjones5789]

Yes they are and don't think great times like then will ever happen again! We are so lucky to really in enjoy the best of times!

[@gretavanfleetarmy]

I'm 58 years old...REO was my band back in the day. Trust me, the good ole days are not gone. This classic music lives on, and we can listen to it anytime we want to. Remember...rock and roll never dies! Have you heard of Greta Van Fleet...the young rock band from Michigan? They have resurrected the classic rock sound...a brilliant, talented band of brothers. Check out their album 'The Battle at Gardens Gate' and their latest album 'Starcatcher'. Both are epic albums! Be prepared to be amazed. I discovered this band in 2017 thanks to my daughter who first told me about them. Since then, I have seen them four times live in concert. Give them a listen and watch some of their live videos on KZbin. Greta Van fleet has an arsenal of killer songs! Rock and roll lives on!✌️🤘🤘🤘

[@donbartos2733]

It did seem funner back then and much more carefree. Of course I'm a 65 year ole geezer. It can be fun now but it'll never be the same

[@Davidd-xf7sy]

@@donbartos2733 im 61 and its no where near fun any more . One thing it cost to much and another factor is its not safe any where any more. Every one wants to shoot every one and thats what i dont get . I got burned when i was 2 in a car fire and my life was hell at times but not once did i ever want to shoot any one and the honest truth is there was several I hated with a passion but i never thought about shooting them. People need to lear if something offends you, suck it up and move on . I find shit that offends me every day but i just move on. This but hurt generation has lost their minds.

[@ajcbng8289]

Every band in the world wishes they could perform live as well as R.E.O.

[@kevinsummitt3937]

the truth!

[@BobJack-s9p]

Had the pleasure of seeing REO 5 times from the 1970s- present. Great band to see live.

This band deserves a proper farewell tour. I demand it!!!!!!

[@concertvip6221]

Crazy he’s 73 still sounds amazing.

[@Corvette.Ronnie]

Never knew Kevin played the acoustic part in Open D tuning using his thumb across what looks like just the EADG (DBDF#) strings. Brilliant!

[@valsteeves1008]

REO is and always had been my favorite band. Their music has gotten me through so many major events in my life; moving 1500 miles from Connecticut to Texas, divorce from my 1st husband, brought me together with my 2nd husband and chemo therapy. We go to see them at least once a year if not more. Whenever they are performing within a 700 mile range from Austin, TX, we are there. Have tickets for 2 shows this November that i can't wait to see. Definitely by then, it will be "Time For Me to Fly". ❤❤

I took my wife and my mother (god rest her soul) to see REO SPEEDWAGON, STYX and FOREIGNER in KC, Mo in 1999. Great concert and great memories.

Kevin was around 70 when I saw REO last year. He had more energy than I did! The whole band was rockin' it!

[@angels71]

I totally agree.

[@tattoofreakofnature]

He's 71. Worked as crew on their show last year and met Kevin. Still down to Earth, still humble.... Still awesome

[@jadams34]

😂🤘

[@vicflo0791]

Wow, this was one of the greatest bands in the 80's, very underated but I still cranked them every time they came on KLOS or KMET ... The 80's was such a better time for all of us no matter what anyone says !!!

[@wendyhope6410]

Kevin sounds great, they are all phenomenal! Still giving their all for their fans.

[@captsteve9875]

First date my wife of 40 years & I went on in '81 was a REO concert. They still sound great.

[@carolefilary1488]

I've alwaya loved REO Speedwagon

[@poom641]

Saw REO open for Pat Benetar in about 1981 both were big acts back then I tell you Kevin Cronin has lots to be proud of, that guy not only has been performing and composing music for such a long time, he's a fantastic artist / talent. I so admire Kevin, how can i not be inspired by a musician , a man who has created so much for so long. What a great talent Kevin is.

[@jimries625]

Cool!

[@hughmura6676]

One of only a handful of lead singers who can sing every note...no key change, no backup female singers to cover the high notes...much cred.

[@jay.w7]

Anyone else think this is still the greatest song ever in 2021?

[@panturbofanger8424]

Let's all say goodbye to the 21st Century-(which didn't start for me until 2010)-Its Time For Me To Fly, back Home 1980s & '90s again.

Yeah I think so, this is from their 2010 Live From Moondance Jam Album. Idk why they didn’t actually sing, considering they had their whole setup on Ozark.
