Not sure we will ever see another golden age of rock in our lifetimes.
But hey...we have Justin Bieber!  |
Please warn me the next time you invoke the unholy name of Bieber ok?
If Freddie Mercury wasn't balls-deep in cock in Gay Heaven right now he'd be rolling in his grave at the state of "lead singers" these days. Auto-tuned nerds (excuse me) who look like sloppy accountants rather than "rock stars". We are the champions? More like we are the losers.
PS: When did rock and roll as we know it "die"?
1994-5, with the twin deaths of Kurt Cobain and Jerry Garcia.
Both generations (Baby Boomers and Gen Xers) lost their spokesmen.
That was it folks.
