he saddest part about aging rock stars is that there are not any younger ones out there to take their place.
Rock will be dead before I am, I fear. Meanwhile, rap still exists.
I think there are definitely "new/younger" bands worth seeing and listening to, but there will never be bands like the Beatles or the Rolling Stones.
You must believe in unicorns if you believe Gen X music is superior.
Make your case.
Are you going to tell me that grunge, new wave and hip hop are superior? Oh, the humanity.
Now, don't get me wrong I love me some boomer music.
That said, the golden ages of the three biggest genres and their subgenres (Metal, Outlaw Country and Rap) are firmly Gen X.
A good friend will bail you out of jail, but your best friend will be sitting next to you in the cell saying "that was f***ing awesome"

I like Zeppelin, Skynyrd, and some others, but the 80s and 90s were more my style of music vs. the Eagles, Beatles, and Stones. The best boomer was Tom Petty and he appealed as much to the next gen as he did his own.

I agree, though all of the boomer artists you list are on my playlist as well as dozens of others not listed. But they share space with twice as many artists who came from and spoke to my generation.
