Thanks to the glory of Netflix, I've been able to reintroduce myself to a great, if sadly unappreciated British sitcom known as Saxondale, about a middle aged former roadie for all the great rock bands from the 70's (not Led Zepplin, that's a touchy subject).
It comments on how our lives change as we get older, and sees Tommy Saxondale try to cling to his past and his youth, all the while despising the current generation. It's funny but pretty damn sad at times as well. If you get a chance to see it (all 13 episodes), really check it out.
Anyway, saw this tonight and I hunted down the clip online because, Jesus, this sounds a bit like me NOW. Is this my future..?
(For any American Dwellers, "Dixons" is a shop that sells CD players, computers etc. Now you're up to speed.
