There are lots of kinds of great music out there, from the Beatles to metal. No need to disparage it. Its no big deal. people, like myself, that love Motörhead have heard all our lives that it sucks and I can appreciate its not everyone's cup of tea, I dropped my son back off at Uni last night and put on Motörhead Essentials for my hour drive home. Im almost 54 now and love them every bit as much as I did when I was 15. the legacy of bands like Motörhead stay alive year after year, after year. Rock'n'Roll will never die and Lemmie played Rock'n'Roll as loud, fast and as good as anyone ever has. If you are younger and like hard rock / metal and aren't that familiar with the band, do yourself a favour and give them a listen.

Not a natural fighter but he took boxing lessons to help bring more "punch" to the team. Eddie Shack, an even bigger character, was #23 before The Hawk, although Rene Robert (traded Shack to get him) very briefly wore Shack's 23.

JohninMinn. Posted September 20, 2023 Report Share Posted September 20, 2023 (edited) This is the year we find out how much Mario Lemieux is in our Tage Thompson. My expectations are off the charts this season. Levi is going to shock the NHL too. Edited September 20, 2023 by JohninMinn. Double word use.

I agree with you that there's lots of different good things out there but had to laugh at your chosen continuum. Beatles on one end and metal on the other as the poles or extremes.

Country Music until it morphed into I don't know what. Lots of people do this but I always find it odd. Why would you shift your music based on your age? I still like what I grew up with and like new things too. The range is wide (farther than the Beatles and metal :)). Pretty sure if I make it to 90 I will still be cranking up Purple Haze or Iggy and the Stooges or the Ramones (etc etc). Probably louder than before as I go deaf 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just a strange thing to me. You're not alone by any means, and there's nothing wrong with classical music (I will go see a good symphony myself) but it is an interesting phenomena to me how many people shift their preferences as they age. Age appropriate and all that. Anyway, what is it 21 days now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvin Posted September 20, 2023 Report Share Posted September 20, 2023 I try to find new music every year. I find that modern hip-hop, prog-metal, and country-pop are my usual landing spots. I do find the pop charts to be less interesting than even 10 years ago, but there is a lot out there to find, so my desire for novelty is usually sated.
