Nice one, Mark, 100% agreement with all that.

Thinking about the Who, I have this terrible vision of the world
20 years from now. Back in the sixties and seventies rock groups
were considered in much the same light as dance music of today,
i.e. subversive, leading the youth astray, etc. These days, they
have become the establishment. Do you think the same thing will
happen to dance music in the coming decades with something else
becoming the underground? Imagine parents telling their kids
"Why don't you listen to that nice band Hallucinogen instead of
wasting your time on this modern rubbish?". Huge outcries when
Radio 1 ban Hardfloor songs as being "boring and outdated".

Frightening thought...

plur,
Doug
