It was politely suggested that I act my age...

[Ματθιας]

That last line took a lot of nerve with that post

What I posted was not meant to be offensive, just an observation.

If you're offended, that's on you. I dob't know what else to say...

Nope. Beyonce ain't no Motown, that's for sure.

Well, she's closer to Motown than her latest "country" album, Cowboy Carter.

I missed the part where you were told to act your age . ???

The words were "politely suggested". Luckily there wasn't a "or else" added in there.

Sirius is set to 49 Smokey’s Soul Town or 06 60’s music.

I used to use IHeart but with a few search words nothing beats YouTube.

The only thing about music nowadays is that it's so expensive to go to concerts. Taylor Swift a thousand bucks, nope. We're going to see Styx with another couple and ok seats were $85 each and thats about the max I will spend on a concert. My wife and I have been going to see many tribute bands lately and you get much better, more comfortable seats for a whole lot less money. In the last couple of years we've seen Fleetwood Mac, Elvis, The Beatles, The Cars, Journey, ABBA, and a Motown compilation and they were all excellent and I enjoyed them as much as the real thing. We're seeing an Eagles tribute band at the state fair tonight that's free with an admission ticket. There's usually room for dancing and then you can be 20 feet away from the band and see and really appreciate how fast the guitar player fingers move and not too much traffic when you leave.

Where I live we have a constant parade of tribute bands, generally free. Two of the best in the business are the Rolling Stoners and Church of Cash.

Saw them in concert many years ago in a nice theater. Great concert! Still have several vinyl albums.

Set a slot for 23 on Sirius. You'll thank me later!

Inna Gadda De Vida is still the greatest rock song ever!

I see that and raise you
J.Geils "Give it to me"
Both songs have that long instrumental interlude that just rocks.
Love them both!

But no Swifties!!

Joining the crowd, I'm fixing to be 73 and rebuilding a CD library for my off grid cabin. Racking my brain to remember a song from high school and occasionally hear riffs on TV commercials, usually about a new medical wonder drug. Finally hit it in my sleep and the song was 'ALL Alright Now' by a group 'FREE' with Paul Rodgers as lead singer and later 'BAD Company'. I kinda heard the lyrics wrong about 'Raising the bleeping parking rates'. Ain't it fun.

I saw him at my college soon after Aqualung was released. Great concert. I was the photographer for the college yearbook and paper so I got to photograph him backstage too.

Still not sure what that means but here is what led up to the comment.

Pulled into the parking lot at the local range. Truck window was down and I was enjoying the songs of Jethro Tull on a CD. Some youngsters heard the tunes and were surprised that someone in their early seventies would be listening to that genre of music. I replied by saying my generation was part of more music variations than they probably knew existed.

What other generation had the pleasure of listening to every conceivable sound ever produced from the fifties to present day and be able to find enjoyment from numerous songs across the decades.

There was country music...ballads...peace songs...protest songs..."bubblegum" tunes...rock and roll...heavy metal...Motown... Something for everybody.

Am I supposed to stop listening to what I grew up on and reminds me of the good times in my Life?

I was also out one evening this week driving with the windows open and Jethro Tull cranked on the radio.
We had the best music[emoji1]

What,no love for Smoke On The Water ?
My kids have given me a hard time about listening to Five Finger Death Punch and Avenged Sevenfold.
Never to old to rock.
I'm only 67 .

Good song, but the classic rock stations beat it to death.

I'm going to see the Beach Boys again this week.

I guess I've become a tribute artist of sorts. When I entered my very first karaoke contest I sang "Six Days on the Road." The lady who won the contest later came up to me and said, "You sounded just like Dave Dudley." I was floating a little while after that.
