    damn. Saw these guys open for Styx and Peter Frampton in 2004. They put on a great show. Too bad it was only 45 minutes. :( RIP

    On an embarrassing note, I once thought " a horse with no name" was a Neil young song, because it sounded so similar vocally to Neil. :oops:

    Didn't they just release a new album, too? Saw it on Amazon not a few hours ago. Never knew any songs besides A Horse With No Name, but it's sad he died so young.
    Thanks EPOTTSIII!

    RIP Dan Peek. Never knew his name til he died, they were always just "America" to me. They were always on the radio when I was WAY younger! I believe he wrote this song too:

    this is for all the lonely people thinking that life has passed them by
