I'm actually curious which camp will be responsible for the next revolution.

I agree. I've been in venues/places where it's piped in and after 10 minutes or so I have a throbbing headache.

Pop music in the '70s and even '80s at least seemed like different songs with different voices. Today's pop just seems to run together as one long annoying, shrill *thing* instead of actual music.

But perhaps I am just old.
It's not an age thing really as I've heard people in their 20's say the same thing. So 60s to 80s and early to mid 90s gets its weirdly cult following in a sea of generic beats and autotune vox.

Punk was a revolt against prog, grunge a revolt against hair metal...I'm expecting another revolution.

Soon, please.
All bars should be made by law play Bing Crosby and nothing else imo.

Nice try, though.
Oh rats

Glad you had a great day - out of interest did you get to see the bit where they filmed the 'moon' shots???

Pardon the probable ignorance but couldn't this simply mean you flew to Houston and back and your plane happened to fly over the facility???

I am fine with them thinking they are right, just as long as they stay an inch or two out of kicking distance...A man needs to know his limitations, yea?
Just nod and agree!
