Needless to say I facepalmed the rest of the evening.

I've dealt with that many, many times. Instrumental music, gothic avant garde bands, and dream pop/shoegazey bands have to deal with that a lot. Because some people can only listen to music that's upbeat, under five minutes with lyrics to connect to. Personally, I think that people like that are missing out, badly. Personally I think people whose music never strays out of top-40 territory are lazy, and don't care anymore and can't be bothered to try something new.
