    Wow. This is going to be huge.

              Dang, just here in Coachella Valley?! Might have to drag my ass out there.

              And what are you talkin' about no radio?! They're all frequently played on all of our classic rock stations (we've got like 4-5 major ones here in Southern California).

                  I was talking about when they release new music.

                      Wow that is crazy! And the pricing is pretty good considering how much each of those geezers charges these days.

                      Question: WHEN will "this generation" learn to play rock and roll like those dudes? Please?? once these guys are dust all we will have left is Imagine Dragons et al. Oh no!!

                          That is a sad state of affairs.

                          A band like Imagine Dragons wouldn't have been able to get a record deal back in the 1970's. They aren't even in the same league as guys like McCartney, Dylan, Jagger/Richards, Pete Townsend, Neil Young, and Roger Waters.

                          Not sure we will ever see another golden age of rock in our lifetimes.

                          But hey...we have Justin Bieber!

                                  I think you actually meant to say was, for those of you who have good taste in music and are not brainless drones spoon fed shit like those today.

                                      Why do I have to be "Stuck in a time warp musically" to appreciate Paul McCartney as one half of one of the greatest songwriting teams in modern history and also one hell of a singer and musician who can play rings around most of the people in music?

                                      That's just an ignorant statement from you.

                                      I enjoy ALL music. I just watched Beyonce's "Lemonade" on HBO and thought it was great.

                                      I also love pulling out my Frank Sinatra "Greatest Hits" record. The man was a genius at phrasing and timing.

                                      But go ahead, have it your way.

                                      I guess people can't appreciate Beethoven or Miles Davis or anyone that isn't approved by you because they aren't currently being pushed down our throats by the establishment in the music industry.

                                          Eh. I have seen you blast EDM as nothing but computer users with no talent, and yet Beyoncé and the like are more or less the poppy version of EDM. Computers and ghostwriting/ghostproducing.

                                          Music is whatever you want it to be. Looks like a great concert. If I still lived in California I would go to that for sure.

                                              But hey...we have Justin Bieber!
                                              Please warn me the next time you invoke the unholy name of Bieber ok?



                                              If Freddie Mercury wasn't balls-deep in cock in Gay Heaven right now he'd be rolling in his grave at the state of "lead singers" these days. Auto-tuned nerds (excuse me) who look like sloppy accountants rather than "rock stars". We are the champions? More like we are the losers.

                                              PS: When did rock and roll as we know it "die"?
                                              1994-5, with the twin deaths of Kurt Cobain and Jerry Garcia.
                                              Both generations (Baby Boomers and Gen Xers) lost their spokesmen.

                                              That was it folks.

                                                  No music isn't what you want it to be.
                                                  MUSIC is created by musicians who can actually sing and play musical instruments.
                                                  EDM is total bullshit.

                                                  Did you see Beyonce's "Lemonade" on HBO? It is MUSIC with guitars, bass, drums actually playing. Not just a bunch of samples. And the album is a concept album...the accompanying video to the entire album is also a work of artistic merit.

                                                  EDM? A DJ pushing "play" on his laptop from his "mixes" of other people's actual musical work.

                                                  Sorry, I don't buy that.

                                                  But as for actual MUSICIANS and SINGERS of our modern era? Hell yeah I listen to them and appreciate what they do.

                                                  I was one of the first people in a GFY thread to say that Lady GaGa is the real deal.
                                                  I was pleasantly surprised by how good of a guitarist Keith Urban is.
                                                  Adele is a monster talent.
                                                  Miranda Lambert kicks ass as a songwriter, singer, and just overall bad ass vibe.
                                                  Bruno Mars is a hell of a talent and so is TheWeeknd
                                                  Gary Clark is a helluva blues player.

                                                  I have zero respect for DJ's calling themselves "musicians". That has nothing to do with "modern" times.
                                                  I would have said the same thing in 1950 and the same thing 100 years from now.

                                                          I was going to say the same thing. McCartney played my city recently and most tickets were around $200 each. With $400 for all three days it's not a bad deal.

                                                              That looks really cool. The best seats are around $1500 which if you think about it is not that bad. It looks like it would probably be one of the best shows ever. I'm seriously thinking about going.

                                                                                      What do you think of rap as a music genre?

                                                                                      I'm middle aged and I feel similar to you but I remember my parents generation not considering most rock music as 'real music', they could enjoy only the new music that was similar to the music of their generation, and I'm no different, the only rap or electronic dance music I like share musical elements from the music of my youth.

                                                                                      Great music is timeless, no matter what era but then there's music that is only timeless for those of an age that it's nostalgic of their younger years. A lot of prog rock, this was the music that dominated during my adolescence, does sound dated to me now, it doesn't hold up well.

Actually, rock is no longer spoon fed on radio. Anyone who thinks classic rock is the only good rock doesn't make the effort to find new stuff.

I just feel like it's ok to move on and find new things, because there's tons of it to discover. Every week, I discover new bands to be obsessed with on Spotify and Youtube.

                                                                                                              I was a teenager in high school playing in my first rock band when the short-lived disco era hit.

                                                                                                              I HATED it! I wanted to be David Bowie or Mick Jagger or Steven Tyler.

                                                                                                              But quite honestly...now that I'm older, I look back at some of that music and realize that it was pretty damn good.

                                                                                                              The song "Stayin' Alive" by the Bee Gees is a good song.
                                                                                                              All that old KC & The Sunshine Band stuff that made me gag as a rebellious teen...is actually fun and makes you smile when you hear it.

                                                                                                              I suppose you accept music from the context of where you are at in your personal life at any given moment.

                                                                                                              But the disco stuff was still MUSIC. Played and sang by musicians and performers.

                                                                                                              These days? Even the people who can sing DON'T sing.
                                                                                                              What I mean is...we have Britney Spears with a residency right here in Vegas where she lip synchs the whole show!
                                                                                                              Or the other day when Justin Bieber accidentally tripped while "dancing" on the stage...and his voice magically kept singing the song even though his lips were no longer moving.

                                                                                                              That's the kind of thing that's just fraudulent.
                                                                                                              And EDM is the same to me.
                                                                                                              These guys sit at home and take other people's music and use software on their laptops to do a mix.
                                                                                                              Then they show up at MGM in Vegas and push "Play" on their laptop software and make $200,000 a night.

                                                                                                              Meanwhile...there are great musicians in this town starving.

                                                                                                                  A band like Imagine Dragons wouldn't have been able to get a record deal back in the 1970's. They aren't even in the same league as guys like McCartney, Dylan, Jagger/Richards, Pete Townsend, Neil Young, and Roger Waters.

                                                                                                                  Not sure we will ever see another golden age of rock in our lifetimes.
