Yeah but you're missing the point that rock DID die. It's not played on radio any more, very few kids these days listen to it. Its all about dance music now, because that's the music that people dance to That's my point, its the association between the music and the dancing that keeps the music and scene vibrant. Without that, it becomes just more old people sitting around at home nodding their heads to music from the "good old days". I don't have a full explanation of why that is, but it seems to be the case that when people stop dancing to the music, it dies soon after.

Those rock scenes you're talking about DID die, prog rock DID kill off the beatles/stones, it took a while but it happened. That's the nature of music. The strange thing, is that people around here are going down with the ship and sticking to the dying genres, while simultaneously not keeping them alive by going out and dancing to them.

I'm not saying that dance music is dying or bemoaning the new scene as it exists today. I'm saying that music that has lost touch with the dancefloor has died or is dying - cf trance.

PS
Feel free not to agree with me. I'm just explaining why I think what I think, not really interested in convincing you tbh.

funny, if rock is dead why does the rock festival i do work for in summer not only sell extremely well, but is attended mostly by younger people. Rock is healthy, like every other genre don't let radio dictate the state of music, because radio has always been a fabrication of what they want you to listen to and not what people are actually listening to.

That's funny. We just need an animated gif to go along with the quote for my sig.
