We're upscale here, lots of talk radio on FM.

Here is the nonexistent band in concert

Apparently, you don't have access to radio either......or record stores, or I-Tunes, or any other source of music....based on your 4 choices...

:rolleyes:

Radio sucks because of the FCC. I have other 250 CD's and almost 1,000 songs on iTunes.

TALK RADIO SUCKS!


All 4 of the bands I listed have won Grammys BTW.
 
Grammys are one measure - doled-out by the industry itself. I think the number of Gold/Platinum "records" awarded is a more meaningful measure. And for that I would venture some "older" (like me!) bands that are still raking it in, and still performing. Eagles, Stones, Springsteen, Who, Led Zep, etc. come to mind. You have to cut them some slack when the full original band isn't there anymore, but for the large part that does not totally diss the product, nor their continuing success...

For this one, Wiki is our friend...

gotta love the classic but nothing worse than hearing them play the same 10 songs over and over on the radio. ever been to an Aerosmith concert? (I have 3 times) you'd hear the same songs now as you would in 1995.

I "hear" ya... One reason I don't make a steady diet of music radio. (I admit - I'm another one listening to AM to some extent!) Also have to admit Sweet Emotion was one of my favorites for years...until I heard it too often. But that's not the band's fault.

I'll bet you could eventually concede the same complaints for the modern-day groups you're promoting after they've been around for 30+ years themselves.

Been to many concerts over the years. (Surprising I have any hearing left!) My "3x'ers" are Rush and Yes. Something very refreshing seeing these icons of my better days still in action...and still sounding great...and still making me feel so good! To me, that's the ultmate measure...
