they played a show at a local country dance bar at like 11am on a weekday during the last stampede. when I heard about it I immediately wondered what the age demographic of those that went were. still wondering tbh

Pretty much; it's the one with all the hits on it. Fore! got to number one but it was the last time any of their albums did.

Ask anyone if they have a HL record in their collection, I'll guarantee you that if they do it's either Sports or a greatest hits, if such a thing exists.

Again, no, but in terms of being known, yes.

Probably a lot of their albums are solid, but they lost their hold on the notoriously fickle pop/chart crowd after Sports. Sure, fans probably still buy their records, but only fans.

To be fair a lot of that pop punk you listen to isn't exactly respectable.
