With the news of Robbie Robertson’s death, I remembered a conversation I had with an old boyfriend.

Old boyfriend and I are at a bar having drinks. One of The Band’s songs is playing. I’m singing along.

BF: Who is this?
Me The Band
BF: Yes, who is this?
Me (with a little emphasis): The Band
BF: Why are you being an ass? (I’m paraphrasing here)
Me: What the … oh … the name of the people performing this song is The Band.
