Good evening people, welcome to the show !
Got somethin' here I want you all to know.

I am one of those people born in the wrong generation, musically.

Music is my main interest, dough I never got the idea about why argue about it. If you don't like something, don't listen to it. Nobody is forcing you to listen to anything. Those people who just goes here on youtube to say that some tone "sucks", "is awful" or something.. don't waste your time on me.

One type of debate that is going on about rock n' roll is the change in the bands. When someone dies or leaves for example. These debates are getting really PATETHIC in my opinion. Some of them are:

1. Metallica: Before "The Black Album" vs. After "The Black Album"
2. Van Halen: David Lee Roth vs. Sammy Hagar (or Gary Cherone)
3. Guns N' Roses: The classic line-up vs. Axl Roses "new" line-up vs. Velvet Revolver
4. Aerosmith: Their earlier blues rock vs. their Hardrock/Pop of later days.

Common people! These changes mentioned above (and other similar) mostly happened a long time ago.. isn't it time to just accept it and move on? I can agree that the music might have changed quite a lot but just listen to what you like and realize that most of this happened like 20 years ago !

As you might be able to see my list is quite varied and I personally don't really understand how people can be so focused on one or two genres. Lots of rock listeners seems to be out after aggression, speed or complicity. That's not the case with me, at all. For example: most of my favorite parts of Metallica is the slower parts, the more melodic one's and the transistions between the hard, heavy and fast into the above mentioned - Bon Jovi and Kiss are quite simpel rock n' roll but why sit and complain " this is too simpel, not enough solos etc." when you just can enjoy the singalong chourses, the riffs and their energy? It is what it is. I don't think Bon Jovi never claimed to be the greatest musicians of all time or the most complex rock band.. but they still do albums and have many million fans over the world. They must be doing something right, right? - Pink Floyd was more focused on breaking musical boundaries and creating musical landscapes than being the fastest/hardest rock band ever.. and the did it right. Even dough Pink Floyd doesn't sound like a typical rock band they are one of the most successful ! -- Open Your Mind :)

AC/DC was right when they once said:
Let There Be Rock
