Oldies

I have no problem with the oldies station playing "California Dreamin'," but I find it really disturbing that they think "Hotel California" is an oldie.

Hon, ANYTHING from the 80s is an oldie.

All that "revolutionary music to piss off our parents" stuff? We are all of an age to be parents now, even of teen agers.

We are the establishment. We are old. We are over the hill. We are the problem. And our music is BORING.

I like the Dresden Dolls, White Stripes, Fountains of Wayne and so forth. :-)

Nirvana is old stuff.

pppthhhbbttt! I know, I'm old enough to be a grandmother. (If I'd had a child when I was [livejournal.com profile] evilnicola's age, she'd be evilnicola's age by now.)

My taste tends to run more toward Guster, though.

A girl in my sophomore (high school) English class this year has a mother that is a whole four days older than me. I nearly choked when I found that out.

Of course, one of the other girls in the class had a father the same age as mine, so that tempered it a small amount.
