Red face The American (sadly well-known) "Short Attention Span" in Music?

I get real pissed when a lot of people say that Americans have a "short attention span" when it comes to electronic dance music.

Does anybody know where that came from?..

If you're talking about Sasha and Digweed, then hell yeah, I got a short attention span... Give me uplifting trance with good build-ups and beats anyday...

Jester /me is laughing his ass off

be careful with the S&D thing...might piss off the various twiloitez on this board

The whole thing with the attention span is just another big generalization, just like English people having bad teeth! Ignore it and just enjoy the happy go lucky uplifting trance

i hear that alot also...and it gets me mad...but honestly people who say things like that are usually Europeans who hate American culture and they will never be convinced that SOME Americans do have a good sense of music....

my advice is just laugh at them because anyone who says MORONIC statements like that our always looking for arguements... unless u feel like having a worthless challenging arguement with some kid who will always hate our culture....
