Ok, get this, currently if you go to an old folks home, many of the old dears like to listen music from their youth, which is of course fair game. I remember visiting my Grandma when I was younger, and she was listening to Bing Crosby, or something along those lines (maybe it was one of the Rat Pack ???) But anyway, imagine when its the next generation, all those people of the 70's.

Its going to be cool, imagine an old folks home full of OHP's listening to Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, the sex pistols, Thin Lizzy, Queen and T-Rex.

Even if you don't like it, you must admit that it's better than shitty lounge music like Sinatra and Dino, innit?

And folks from that generation normaly look to softer stuff when they get old. My step dad who use to enjoy rock, like Zepp, Hendrix Deep Purple, Sabbath, The Who, etc., now only listens to the soft stuff like The Moody Blues.

Screw you RedZeppelin, Sinatra is fuckin king!

(EDIT)
Another 2020 prediction... are you aware that more money is being spent on Viagra and plastic surgery than on Alhzeimers research. So in 2020, there will be a large elderly population with perky breasts and erections but no recollection of what to do with them :lol:

Yeah, probably 20th century's "classical music".

I'm sure Pink Floyd will also sound a lot on those places too.

ok, so now i listen to what youīd hear in an old folks home 30 years from now. my aunt listens to lots of sinatra. she had the nerve today to say that my music didnīt promote progressive thinking and planning for the future, that it was deconstructive and only allowed me to dream. boy did i get pissed...but i had to swallow it and tell her that it was the music that got me through the past few years and i didnīt find it deconstructive at all.
