There's so much different music nowadays. And it doesn't always sound modern, it doesn't sound hip. It just sounds... Good.
I did a posting a couple of weeks ago. Let me search...

Ah, it was two pages back in this topic.
Here:

Music like this doesn't 'fit' the time, yet it is still being made and produced.
I have the feeling something good is going to happen.

A lot of cool bands/groups. Thanks!

2000s definitely better than the 90s for me, if looking beyond just the famous stuff anyway.

It's tough to look beyond famous stuff in an era in which you aren't at that point. But I still have to agree with you.

They might not be interested in taking time to learn a musical instrument if they're on the internet or gaming, they'll invest all their time in those other pursuits - not practicing. There's a possibility too music could be worse. :/

I highly doubt that music is going to get worse. It is just going to change like it always has.

Just because a majority of kids like gaming and being online/internet. There are just as many that have interests in learning an instrument as well. You know what even helped this even though people like to hate on it?

Rock Band and Guitar Hero has renewed interest is the younger generation wanting to learn to play instruments imo.

Some people play those games just for the fun factor but some realize that they would really love to learn how to play them for real instead of just hitting the color coded buttons in sync.

Good point, but I'm sure there are some instances that are similar to what Neapolitan was getting at. Of course, we could compare his concept of the influence of gaming in today's society with that of television in the sixties and seventies.

It would have been great to have been able to grow up during the 60s. Such great music and cultural aspects. And, also I would have been able to live through the 70s and 80s. Such great things have happened during those years, but I am sure that we are going to feel lucky that we have lived through the times we have as time continues to go by.

There isn't any rock icons now - like ozzy, cooper or manson - there needs to be somebody that people go crazy over - who's next?
