7 Sure-Fire Signs That That Rock Band You Used to Really Like is Over the Hill

1: There are fewer than two surviving members onstage from the original group.

2: Band now has a horn section, all of whom inexplicably wear porkpie hats. Also, the obligatory trio of sexy, girl back-up singers move in unison and clap along to the songs they're not in just to stay awake.

3: Front man performs second half of set from a Laz-Boy® recliner.

4: Their tribute band that you saw at a water park last summer sounded more convincing.

5: The Hell's Angels working security don't knife anybody.

6: The songs from "their latest album" that you've never heard of are just awful.

7: You found out about the concert and got tickets for it through AARP.
