some sad facts about citrus_seas (i'm sure many of you are like this too)

why would anyone make a strict rule like that

 

that's what i'm saying....

it has to be the stupidest thing i've ever heard of. ever.

 

You only have to go to a decent festival to see that there is good music still being made. I prefer Classic Rock, but to say modern music sucks is just plain ignorant epspecially when you aren't willing to listen to it. If you play a song to someone like citrus_seas and tell them its by Floyd/Zeppelin/The Doors etc they will really open their ears and try to enjoy the song. If you were to tell tham its modern, they'd look for flaws.

 

Well, this is a hippy website, and the hippie era is the 60's and 70's.

 

It seems silly to me, but hey each to his own, I only hope he opens his mind more. I mean, when people ask me what genre I like, I say I like all types of music, and am open to all styles.

Even if I was a classic rock nut, writing everything off because the date it was made is stupid.

 

I like citrus_seas.

 

^I don't know him, my statement was general. I ceratinly don't dislike him in any way

 

citrus_seas and I are behind enemy lines.

 

what does that have to do with anything?

 

It's the "hip" forums, not hippy.

There are hippie subforums, and this isn't one of them. this is the "music" forum, incase you didn't know.

 

This site is called "hippyland" so it is expected that the music forum would be heavily infiltrated by people like me, citrus_seas and local_hippy who have rejected our generation's established conventions and have stuck ourselves into the anarchaic reaches of our minds basking in a flower garden.

 

he doesn't sound like a fan of music

 

you're a minority here. most people are much more open minded about music.

 

you stick with your conformist closed-minded stereotypes, then...

 

I conform to the 1970's which is not conforming to the 2000's.

 

but why have you "rejected our generation's established conventions"?

 

Because I don't like our generation. I am with the baby boomers. why is my name water_baby? think about it.

 

Our generation is what we make it.

You're not helping the cause.

 

One of the main traits of the stereotype "hippy" mindset (I hat stereotyping) is being open minded to other's opinions and tastes, and being open minded about new experiences in general.

That counts for music too, I guess.

 

about the baby boomers: if you can't beat them, join them

This means that the baby boomer generation were way more cooler than our generation.
