I would have to disagree with you. Music today requires little talent. Most is mixed and not one singer today can touch record sales from those classic rock bands.

WHAT! OMG what about JB he is so talented and all of those other bands suck and need to stop stealing his music...

On the other end of the spectrum if you are looking at it from a money standpoint then no artist today will ever reach what I'd say artists before the 90's reached, maybe even the 2000's. Look at the Beatles, Elvis, Johnny Cash. They were known around the world and active for decades. Where as it seems like artists now a days die out after 5 years.

Again all this is subjective this is my :2

Sorry to continue this tangent but I can't help it. Today's music by en large sucks. There is no rock. Funny thing is when kids now get a taste of real rock they go nuts, they love it. Rock stations are dying off. Classic rock stations live on but new rock, if you call it that, sucks bad.

BTW, I liked Metallica. I'm not fond of Alternica. Last good CD/album they released was the black album. But I digress.

Anymore I listen to country. At least I can relate to it. Modern rock is a bunch of whiny petulant kids at best and at worst it's the Goth/Emo movement on meth. :td Classic rock was never whiny. It wasn't about screaming and sounding crazier or angrier than the rest. It had melody and guitar riffs you can still hear in your head decades later. It grabbed you. I just can't say that about today's wannabe rock. Today's pop doesn't even need to be bashed. Even its fans know it's crap with a short shelf-life.

Re: Funny Pics II

Wow, lot's of music snobs? Listen to what you like and like what you listen to. I think I've heard that somewhere :D

On a side note, before you trash the music that someone else grew up on remember that YOU have MEMORIES tied into what you like. Hanging out with friends, getting laid, etc. Things that make that music special to you. Kids now are tied into the music THEY grew up with. As far as most of them are concered Classic rock is the crap that thier dads made them listen to in the back of the car on the way to grandma's house ( I have an extreme hatered of Roger Whitaker thanks to my dad)

Personally I enjoy both. I used to work at a radio station and the PD always said "Never trash any song you don't like, because it's someones favorite tune.":tu
