And without durable goods (like records) that can be rediscovered by the owners' kids or strangers/archivists at garage sales, thrift stores, flea markets, etc., they won't have 25-40 year longevity.

There's already one band known for their beards (ZZTop)

Don't you hate showing up for a gig only to find the venue is closed?

About 25 years to late to be Beck.

Modern Music PING

[dfwgator]

Half of them are probably gay.

I know NONE of the names you posted.

Beethoven, Brahms, Tchaikovsky, Chopin, Mozart, Grieg, Verdi, Wagner, Puccini, Liszt...I listen to those guys. My dad listened to them and it's what I learned growing up.

Never hear of any of them, but Catfish and the Bottlemen is a cool name.

MLKMN

[Liberty Valance]

LV predicts he'll still be listening to real artists from the past ...

Tony Joe White - Bayou Woman

I think Tony is still playing. I’ve seen him briefly in concert and missed a few other opportunities.

[Liberty Valance]

Yes. He’s still out there being re-discovered. A real original.

Take a break. :)

THIS kind of music gives me the headache. The classics take the headache away.

Go figure.
