100 hairy fat fucks in spandex jerking off to van halen

Hey, I agree 100% with you. The point is, you are stuck in the era you grew up in, and won't accept that today's youth doesn't give a fuck about guitar or the music you like.

If these old farts would put on their hearing aids they could appreciate lots of great rock guitar from the last 20 years that would suit their reactionary tastes, like how could this thread exist without even a mention of J Mascis?

Yeah, make fun of old people. That solves every problem. Whats old to you anyway? 30?

I'm old too, 34, but I don't advertise it by glorifying the great days of MOTR music, lol. There's a difference between being old and being stuck in a time warp, the former is irrelevant, the latter is ripe for jokes.

As opposed to 100 anorexic boys in skinny jeans and guy liner jerking off to Fall Out Boy? Or 100 sideways hat wearing, junkyard dog chain wearing, angry wannabe gang bangers jerking off to 50 Cent?

What difference does it make? People like what they like and how can anyone say one kind of music is better than another or one musician is better than another? It's subjective. It's not a sport with specific scoring and goals. If you like it then it's good for you. I never understood people taking "sides" in a debate about music. There are no sides.

The funniest part is that the bands/artists that people get so combative about are often not so myopic in their own musical tastes. I don't know too many "rock gods" that think all modern music is just wank. Great musicians get that way by loving music in general.

Agreed, we where all lucky to be apart of it. I just wish I was little older to experience Led Zepplin and Rush in their prime.

Fall Out Boy, junkyard dog, seriously have you been buried under a rock for the last half a decade?

electro bitches!

Oh no I made 5 year old references! I'm so sorry I have become completely outdated and irrelevant. I'll be sure to consult the top 20 I-tunes downloads next time before I post. I wouldn't want to be stuck at GFY's nerds table next time we all have lunch together.

I saw the Moving Pictures tour (tickets were like 20 bucks back then haha). Just amazingly precise playing and great sound. Saw lots of concerts from about 1976 on up to mid 80's or so. Hell of a time to be at that age. I stopped concert going when concerts started looking like it was a rent-a-cop parade instead of a big room full of cool people.
