facebook.
I actually heard he had been married a really long time, and good for him. I haven't really listened to REO since "High in Fidelity" (still one of the greatest albums, EVER). That said, the guy comes across as more gay than most gay men that I've met in my life. I guess it's a lesson in not stereotyping people. I'm surprised to hear anyone say they never thought he was gay. He just comes across as VERY feminine to me. Again, no big deal and I wouldn't think any less of the guy if he were gay. I just never knew much about his history of family, so just always assumed (apparently, wrongly)that he was gay, just from listening to him.
I get your assumption (is that even a word?

). Even though he has writtten some "gay"
songs ala can't fight this feeling he has written some killer rock tunes like keep pushin, I do
wanna know, love is a rock etc. You should check out their last album find your own way home.
Best album from them in 20 years.
Is it not the only album from them in 20 years?

Ha. I know your kidding but no they have had a couple albums out
in the last 20 years.
I guess that is a very literal interpretation when you say "a couple albums."
By my count, it's two studio albums in the last 20 years:
1996 - Building the Bridge
2007 - Find Your Own Way Home - Wasn't this going to be called "Everyone Loves a Happy Ending" originally?
I know there were a bunch of compilation and live albums. Am I missing any studio albums?
I saw REO live last summer for the first time, between Ted Nugent and Styx. I thought they were great (especially the vocals, even with only three guys singing), but could have done without the incessant ramblings from KC. He's not as bad as Uncle Ted though.
