I like new stuff, especially music.

Dont get me wrong, the old stuff was great. But if that's all you listen to, then you are just living in the past and not keeping up with the rest of society.

Not really. I can't explain it. In the 80s/90s I was listening to music of the 80s/90s. Go figure.
I went to a lot of concerts in the 90s for "current" or "contemporary" bands. I guess I just never got past and now - as you say, I am sort of living in the past.
Every now and again I'll find a current band I really like but on the radio? Never.
The only "current" radio station I listen to on Sirius would be the reggae on 42.

No sir. I don't follow what any bands are doing, do I had no idea about it. I don't think my wife would enjoy herself.

I know I will prob get flamed, but really don't care. Music is a personal choice. My ears want to fall of my head when I hear anything from The Beatles, Rush, Paul McCartney , Billy Joel, and a lot of the new pop crap. 93.3 is downright horrible anymore.

This should be called the grumpy old fart thread. There's some great new music out. I admittedly have a thing for the late eighties..early nineties music but still like a lot of the newer stuff....and I love rap. It bothers me that so many people refuse to open their minds to something new. There's a hell of a lot out there other than Justin Bieber.

In the 70s and 80s I was listening to John Denver and Billy Joel but I was also listening to Nat King Cole, Frank Sinatra and Glenn Miller. Good music is good music -- it will be timeless if it has pleasing tonalities, melodies and harmonies and/or a catchy rhythm. How many people today still listen to George Strait from the 70s or 80s?

I'm open to new stuff and some of it is good ... but not a lot. As far as keeping up with society, are we talking about the same society that thinks Barack Obama is the greatest thing since sliced bread, actually WANTS to be dependent on the federal or state government, doesn't bother actually reading the Constitution or new laws, and goes around thinking Trayvon Martin was some little angel ruthlessly gunned down by a racist white guy? Mmmmm ... yeah, count me out of that crap, I'll just leap frog it to an era when society regains its senses.

Heh. Was going to post that one first, but thought that the obvious Lady Gaga tie-in with Fatty Boom Boom was a better fit. :D

Turn that Music down!!

At 32 I can still listen to the new stuff although I find my radio tuned to Sports Talk most often these days.

I have Sirius in both of the cars and subscribe to their Internet streaming service. I find that most all of the am/fm radio stations nowadays suck pretty badly. They'll play 3 or 4 songs and just seem to keep them on repeat so after a few hours of listening to the same station you're burned out on the songs because you've heard them several times in just a few hours.

Opie and Anthony is my preferred daily auditory entertainment at work.

I'm a country boy myself. Though I'm still wondering when clasic rock and jail house rock became country. Oh yeah and some one needs to tell people like Jason Aldeene to make up their fn minds and quit screwing things up. Also like jazz and classical.

This is true of satellite radio as well, it just takes longer than a few hours. But I've heard some songs 3-4 times in a day on road trips on, say, 80s on 8. You have an entire decade to work with. There should be no repeats in a day. :shrug:

We have the Satellite in the newer rig, but my old truck and GTO never have the radio on. My music is on a thumbdrive and I just listen to what I want. The other day, I had to turn it up...was listening to Autograph. :) I have some newer country, a lot of 80s rock, some ZZtop, Miles Davis, Whitney, but none of the new pop garbage.
